Maybe not a starter but if he can lead the 2nd team then it's still all good for the Clippers. As long as he can contribute and maybe if they are on the lead, preserve it while Kawhi and the starters are taking their rest. WB and Hyland, that will be a scary fast-paced game with both players attacking the rim.

Honestly, Westbrook is so lucky that he landed on this team and L.A Clippers has been doing great this season and with his addition to the team, I'm sure he can contribute more and push their performance into something new high-level play. If he can do well here, I guess this is their chance to play more aggressively and sufficiently to get through the NBA finals. I'm so excited to see what kind of roles he will take it that team and how will they look forward to beating the Nuggets, Grizzlies, and Mavericks.

You can never be sure honestly, Westbrook was expected to contribute with the LA Lakers and yet he failed our expectations. It's better not to expect so much, Westbrook does have the talent, the problem is the chemistry with his teammates, so hopefully, he will finally fit with the Clippers.

He might also get a problem on LA Clippers since Kawhi is there and George they are the primary option on the rotation of Clippers so I don't think Westbrook will still fit in that knowing that he used to be the main guy on the team. We already see his performance decline so bad on Lakers and this might go repeat in Clippers if he can't adjust on his new role. This is big challenge for Clippers on how they can work out with Westbrook if this deal will finalized.

Yes, I was also the same impression that Westbrook will not be a perfect team that already has the alpha on them. He was good in Washington because Beal was out almost half of the season So Westbrook was the main man, and so when Beal got back, they got to the playoff that year.

But we all know that he got traded to the Lakers and he didn't sit with the chemistry of Lebron and other experience that season, with Carmelo and Dwight and other veterans. Now he has been traded to a team with Kawhi and Paul George so we are not sure if he will blend or will distort the chemistry of the team since they are going well already.

We will only know once they are already playing together,

If he can work it out with PG and Kawhai, then they might get a good chance in winning games.
PG and Kawhai are working well when they are both healthy, adding Westbrook might be another
thing for coach Lue he was able to coach great players way back with the Cavs,
let see if how he will create plays for his stars when they are all inside the court together.
1102  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Errol Spence vs Keith Thurman on: February 21, 2023, 12:57:01 PM
Therefore, the best thing to do for him is just to make sure he'll not fight Crawford and just look for opponents that he has a better chance of winning.

And that led Spence to fight Keith Thurman instead but the crazy thing here is, he will defend his 3 titles at 147 lbs at 154 weight division lol.

Maybe if Spence wins against Thurman, he needs to decide whether to continue at 154 or not. If he continues at 154, he should give up his titles at 146, and with that being said, it will be vacant and Crawford now has a chance to fight for a unification fight.

But with the way things are happening, looks like even the boxing council themselves like WBC don't want their baby boy Spence to be faced by Crawford.

Funny to think that even the organization is not willing to make this fight to happen, they are protecting Spence who really doing
his best in avoiding the negotiation against Crawford.

Like what you mentioned, instead of discussing the fight with Crawford, his camp and the organization push the fight against Thurman.

Not a title fight but still good as Thurman is not an easy opponent to beat up, Spence will be tested now if he can KO Thurman
with his speed and solid punches.
I already see this as unprofessional, if I were a professional boxer I wouldn't refuse to fight him as a challenge, that lends itself to thinking later that somehow I dodged it out of fear, a boxer can say that he didn't want to fight with them out of fear, it is very easy and more like the boxers of today, what they do is show off for themselves and they say they are the best, where the right thing to do is expect others to praise them, it doesn't matter Wherever they come from, what matters is that a fight can happen, but that's why so much with that fight, Spence must accept that fight with Crawford.


We can't force him or his camp as they are in the position and they really avoiding the possibilities to negotiate whatever
the reason Spence got' he and his camp might protect the chance of suffering from a big loss.

Moving forward, the fight between Spence and Thurman is what we are going to expect to take place, even there's no belt
to risk, it's the name that is a matter between the two.
1103  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue - WBC and WBO 122 lbs bout - May on: February 20, 2023, 06:14:39 PM
It's a humble thing for Inoue to say that he's also having troubles in terms of pressure. We've known the guy to be a very decorated and experienced fighter and we think that he's already past these stages wherein he's worried about the pressure. The jump from bantamweight to featherweight isn't that much, but he acknowledges that it might be something that he isn't thoroughly prepared for and that's commendable compared to fighters who talks trash and can't really stand up for it.

It's not that Inoue is already past the stages of being pressured. There will always be pressure if a boxer will fight a title match right away just after moving up. Aside from that, Inoue is used to fighting as a champion and not a challenger and that's the new environment he is facing and not the jump from 118 to 122 as for me, it shouldn't be a big deal.

Fighting also in Japan, where the boxing market industry is huge and decent money is circulating in every of his fight in his hometown, Inoue does carry a responsibility on his shoulder to win the fight or else, a negative post-effect is expected to follow although not to the point that it will be considered as worst.

He's moving up and the chance that he will be facing much tougher opponents will add to his pressure, the kind of conditioning
and training that he needed to undergo is not the same as the last division that he's fighting.

But that kind of gesture only shows respect to his opponent, knowing that even he's a challenger instead of talking trash to hype
the fight, Inoue is willing to take what is necessary to win against Fulton.

The end result will give either him or Fulton another hype to their respective careers.

He is just being humble. Surely he isn't the one who brags all the time like Broner. Inoue is even the top dog for bookmakers in this match despite him being the challenger and the first-timer in this division. Because Inoue move up, it is a mandatory fight for Fulton afaik so surely this is Inoue's initiative to fight someone in this new division he is in.

This will be an easy fight for Inoue which is not also a good odds again. If the line would 1.35 I think it will be enough for me to bet my usual small amount.

This bout is not a mandatory title defense for Stephen Fulton and he's not due for that yet. It's just that both camps have managed to agree on a certain terms to make the fight happen, the WBO gave Inoue a super-champion title to pave a way to make the fight much easier to happen as that title does have some perks to go directly and fight a champion even if Inoue just made the climb.

For the odds, just like what we are expecting to happen, Inoue might be listed by the bookies as the favorite or even a heavy-favorite despite the fact that this is first fight at super-bantam and he is just a challenger to the champion.

I want to assume that Inoue will change the direction of the outcome. What I mean was, we all or most of us expect that Canelo
will easily beat Bivol after he decides to challenge the champ on his division.

But things didn't end up well with Canelo and for sure there are also fans for this fight who are thinking about Fulton, as he's
more familiar with this weight, being a champ is also an advantage,

though Inoue is not someone but a monster who can push you to the limits and beat you with his aggressiveness.
1104  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue - WBC and WBO 122 lbs bout - May on: February 20, 2023, 11:33:00 AM

Here, it's different. Inoue needs this fight because he is aiming for a new belt. He has to remember that, although he is the more popular fighter, he is the challenger here.

He's the challenger, and he needs this belt to add more hypes to his legacy,

after completing that unification from his previous division, now he's moving up to extend his legacy.
Fighter like him who care about winning are not afraid to take the risk. It will be nice since there's no news or any update that one of
the fighter is backing out, both are willing to take that shot from one another.
Inoue wants to prove that he can win and take Fulton's belt while the current champ will be tested. He needs to prove his worth as the
current title holder.

This makes me think that Giannis is going to have an edge for his team to win.

Looking at the roster though, Team Giannis does have a clear edge on winning against Team Lebron.

Good to see that team Lebron is not stacked with such big names as for sure, his critics will point it out again and will be serious even if the purpose of All-Star is just for entertainment purposes. Around less than an hour to go and tip-off will now commence between Team Lebron and Team Giannis. I hope that this game will be exciting with a thrilling close out game at the end.
Ever since they changed the format from East Vs. West, Team Lebron has won all the all-star games and has a record of 4-0 currently.

Now the roster is more balanced than what it was last year, but I can't think of a way how Team Lebron will be losing this time knowing that he has the 2-Time MVP in Jokic and Doncic as well. It's sad to see Steph and Zion not playing though because of injuries. We will miss those no look three-point shots, high flying dunks this All-star game.  Anyway, lets just enjoy the game, and put our bets on it maybe. I put my bet on Team Lebron as I believe the streak continues, and has a better chance of winning (for me).

Was it 4-0 or 5-0 record and this time Team Giannis broke his winning streak. Correct me if I'm wrong though.

But yes, it is much more fun if it's the old format where it is East vs. West because that format is much more competitive compared to what we have now where the selected captains will be selecting their reserves and starting five. Anyway, Jayson Tatum won the All-Star MVP award garnering 55 points, half of that score was made beyond the arc. Quite unexpected if I would say because LeBron got Mr. Triple Double as well as Embiid and Luka, but it was a well-deserved play by Tatum, no doubt.

No defense and just pure offense, something that good shooting strokes will have the advantage.

In papers, team LeBron for me got that huge advantage, having both Embiid and Jokic and with Luka and Kyrie.

That 5 stars are all capable of both offense and defense if the competition is for real, but like what most of us observe today's all-stars
is no longer the same.

They are just allowing players to take shots, no defense, just all pure offense.

I don't think so, Haliburton somehow surprised them when he put up 31 points in the first round. That's a tie in the record made in the 3 point contest.
But he lost the rhythm on the next round, and he was rushing it. He already has one of the fastest releases in the league and he could've taken his time.
Then, there's Buddy Hield. He actually almost won the contest. I actually enjoyed watching those three players.

He impresses the fans on his first attempt, but you are right, he's rushing his shots, which supposedly he buys some time to make
a much better stroke. But, I think that's the way he really wanted to take those, and the outcome did not favor him.

Lillard got enough time to throw that winning shot and that converted and gave him the trophy. Nothing to say but it's really a good snatched.

Waiting for the live game between team LeBron and team Giannis.

Hey mate, previously you talked about email from Rollbits team with nice offer without any conditions. Have you asked about it to Rollbit? or maybe you can share the email here to avoid false accusation against Rollbit. Just wondering if it is from official rollbit email or not. It would be nice to see official answer from Rollbit about what you are referring to in other thread.
Hey hey, it was a legit email from the Rollbit team. I have used the code sent via email and it works, got my daily reloads + side bet offer.
I don't know what happened but someone dumped email database to Rollbit team Cheesy
There are sometimes duplicate mails from scammers also in the name of these legit casinos which is why some gamblers are afraid to do so but as you have confirmed it others can also use it but yes ther are sidebets promotions from team so you are good to use these codes.

I agree to that, a duplicate phishing emails are the reason why most of the time gamblers is not minding those emails as they
don't want to be victimized by those hackers and scammers.

But since it's been confirmed and it has been used then it will be use as basis just in case, you'll receive email like this you'll be
able to check and see if that will work and if you'll be able to get something from it.

I saw the original post na nasa loob ng article complaining na ang taas ng bawas ng gcash sa pag convert ng peso to btc. Madaming speculations about dun like the spread , fees , etc. I don't know if totoo yung 5% fee nila pero if legit man yun ehhh napakalaki nun and marami naman tayong options to use kaya nakapag tataka na bago palang ang crypto feature nila is ganito na agad kalaki yung fee nila. I never see myself using this service even na active gcash user ako. I always prefer my own way of storing and buying btc.

Yong transaction fees talaga yong challenge para sa ating mga Pinoy dahil hindi naman or iilan lang naman yong bumibili ng napakalaking halaga ng crypto na hindi na inaalala yong fees. Yong nga dahilan (para sa akin) na umiiwas ako sa coins.ph dahil ang laki ng kaltas sa value pag na-convert na yong peso into crypto kaya tingin ko option nalang ito ng Gcash pero madalang itong magagamit but when it comes to storage, very reputable naman yong Gcash, safe naman siguro yong nabiling crypto kahit hindi natin i-transfer sa non-custodial wallet natin.

Reputable naman ang Gcash ang kaso lang daming umaatake na scammers at as usual mga na bibiktima ay yung mga basta-basta nalang gumagamit ng Gcash na hindi naman nag babasa. Kadalasan na bibiktima dahil dun sa mga link at mga confirmations na sinesend ng mga scammers dun sa mga bibiktimahin nila. I'm not sure kung sa crypto naman may mga gimmick nanamang gagawin ang mga scammers dito, kaya dapat talaga payohan yung mga pumapasok nlng ng basta-basta wa crypto using the new feature ng Gcash.

Malalaman natin yan, alam naman natin na ang mga scammers ay talagang sanay na sanay na makaisip ng iba't ibang
paraan para makapambiktima, pero syempre nasa users pa rin ang magiging basehan.

Kung hindi ka basta basta maniniwala at basta basta magcclick ng link at dadagdagan mo pa yung kaalaman mo para sa

Since strategy are always changing in trading, what is the relevance of experience? Who would you trust the most for trading tips,
An old trader who has had better days and mostly still relevant because they have a strong reputation for the fact that he has been trading for a while, or would you trust a new trader who is hot in the market and fresh with new strategies?

I'm sure you already know who to trust because I personally don't see any reason trusting a newbie trader just simply because his burning hot and a strategy is working for him, I'm sure such a person doesn't have much knowledge about the market and if I'm to trust another with my trading decisions then it will have to be the old trader and I have a principle of low and steady winning the race and I always tell me that trading isn't about making rash profits but how long one will be able to keep winning (consistently making profits).

Old traders have that experienced that you can use as the basis when following their strategy,

though there are always adjustments that they can perform during the actual trade where followers can't see it coming.
As usual, traders always follow some patterns when they are dealing with their trades.

Both new traders and old-time traders are working with how they can make some good outcome when they place their position during the trade.
More on your appetite if who will be the one that you think that fits with your own strategy, your final decision is still on your own.
1112  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: February 18, 2023, 03:45:34 AM
The scary part about the Phoenix Suns is CP3 has more options for his passing skills. He himself is already a threat with that mid-range perfection skill and it can pull two defenders to open up space for either Booker, Ayton, or KD. So he can do a lob, kick it out, or just let Durant do his magic.
But I will focus on what they will do to make stops, defense must also be as strong as possible to win games.

I have to agree with that "BUT ONLY" if Chris Paul will maintain that kind of consistency in the playoffs.

Regardless of how he performed well in the season, CP3 always choked at the latter part of the playoffs out of nowhere. Blewing a series lead even way back to his Los Angeles Clippers stint up to the last playoffs with his current team, Phoenix Suns.

But who knows with Durant as the new teammate that he requested, things might change in the playoffs.

Oh well, CP3 almost has it but blew it away against the Bucks.

Remembering back when he still playing with Griffin and they are really hot and solid contender in the West but always failed
to beat either Spurs and Warriors. Another shot with the Rockets but then again he missed one important game that lead them
losing with the Warriors.

Hopefully, before he retires his jersey, he will achieve what players always dream to have when playing in this league, a ring
for the final world champ.
1113  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: February 17, 2023, 06:37:07 PM
Looks like Phoenix is taking an L in the final game before the all star break. They could have used Durant tonight but it won’t be long now before we see his debut. Paul George had himself a game tonight that wasn’t totally reflected in the box score. He was making big plays and hitting hard shots all night. Eric Gordon looks like a great addition also.
Phoenix was out rebounded. outcoached, and outplayed IMO. The Suns need to play more aggressively and get themselves on the free throw line. Get some players in foul trouble and work harder to get wins. Playing soft won't get them anywhere except a seat watching the playoffs.

Watching their game earlier against the Clippers makes me think and wonder that this team might choke again in the early rounds of the playoffs if ever they will have a seat. Fortunately, their chances has improved because they already have Kevin Durant in the roster with them who will give a good impact for the team but that is still unknown at this stage because Durant is still injured and will likely play few games before the season ends.

KD is a good addition to them in terms of both offense and defense, if they will duplicate how the Warriors manage to fit him inside the system
the chance of winning for the Suns is really high.
Booker and CP3 will be the key here, remembering how the splash bros adjusted for KD just to work with him and allow him to facilitate. It
will bring a good chance of advancing to the next round and a possibility that they can move back to the finals.
It's just an opinion and base from how KD affects the team that he played with when he's healthy.

Suns vs Clippers - gonna be a good match up here, ML for Clippers for me, @1.93.

Parlay both my picks @3.71.
Congratulations bro, perfect night.

Finally I hit my picks for tonight's game, I stay away from the Wizards vs Timberwolves game and it was the right decision for me because I can't decide on that game.

Congrats to you as well almost perfect and for those who win tonight. At least we have a win before the All Star Break.

Congrats and you are right not to bet with Wizard and Wolves game as the game outcome is something that you'll be itchy in your head
if you are a fan of heavy favorite.
Less than 6 minutes of the game where a big turnaround happened. It was the wolves who's controlling the game but the aggressiveness
of Wizard brings them the win that they really needed, just can't believe that Wolves will let this thing happened in front of their home
fans, letting their opponents to outscored them in the last and very important quarter of the game.

We might only see a TKO victory from either side if they will go toe to toe, Fulton is actually pretty good too, he's quick and has a good footwork and head movements. They are both fast and agile, the only thing i see that separates this two is Inoue's punching power, just like what you said he's a heavy hitter. This is the fight that Fulton will surely be careful about defensively, coz his opponent this time could KO him anytime through combination of body punches or a hard straight jab to the face.
I would be thrilled to see a toe-to-toe fight between Inoue and Foltun as well. Inoue is known for his aggressive style and devastating power, and it would be exciting to see if Foltun can withstand his punches and respond with his own. Inoue has a large and passionate fan base due to his exciting fights and impressive skill set, and many fans are eagerly anticipating this matchup as another opportunity for Inoue to showcase his talent.

Yup! if Fulton will engage and try to take all those punches and throw its own solid punches to test if how hard Inoue's chin,
it's really tough to say if how the fight will proceed but surely fans wanted to see them exchanging solid punches.

It's a matter of how prepared they will be when the fight takes place, and how they will show their fans the greatness that they've
got inside the ring. Only one can win or maybe a draw, but it's much better to see if who's going to win between these two champs.

Ethereum drops after proof-of-stake.
Source' channelsnews.com

My worry right now is that, is it going to drop worst more than it has already and what are the chances of it pulling up within the shortest possible period?

As am getting the feeling of withdrawing my asset before it gets worst or am I been too haste.
There's nothing to worry about because after ethereum drops it will rise back and it will become more valuable, during bull season most of the coin are rising so we only need to hold and be more patience, because we will not loss if we don't sell at loss and we will surely earn if we have patience it is proven and tested so many times before that those who have patience and can wait then they get a big profit.

Following the trend for Bitcoin,

ETH will always tail how bitcoin works, if bull run takes place, then expect that even ETH drops its price
you will expect that it will bounce back and will bring decent benefits.

It's more about how you observe the market movement and how you place your position. It's scary but having the right idea on how
the market will proceed, then you'll get a better chance to earn instead of fearing if the value will dump down.

With the Clippers, I think they are playing good team basketball. If Westbrook is able to play his role well, then I'm pretty sure he will be one of the biggest reasons for this team to improve in their upcoming games. It's very exciting to know where he will end up, but we have no choice now but to wait for the result.
If Clippers buys him out, having Kawhi and Paul George is going to be a good trio for the team then. Aside from them, there are other teams where he has talked with namely,

  • Wizards
  • Heat
  • Bulls

Everyone seems to agree that Clippers might be the best place for his new home. But still, that will depend on his and management's deal.

Yeah, we will have to see if ever how will he be a perfect fit for the Clippers, but so far Clippers though are doing good already with their current situation. 4th in the West and have a 2 game winning streak.

Might be bad though to add Westbrook to their lineup, but we will see, if the management sees that it's a good opportunity for them to add Westbrook because he can help them then so be it. But base on experience by Lakers, it's not a good experience for them.

Personally adding another scorer might not be a good for the Clippers,

it's better for them to add 2way player who can contribute not just in offense but also with good defense.
Something that might not work for the Lakers since LeBron is also a scoring machine but not that much involve with their defense,
we might not see why the management is interested in Russ. Maybe they can find a good system for him wearing the clippers' uniform.

What do you typically do when you are on chasing loss situation?
I think the best thing is for you not to chase the loss, if you try that then you are likely to lose more money, you won't even be able to do your analysis well again, all what you will be after is just your win which at the end you might endup losing all your money. Whenever you are losing and you notice it's getting too much, just stop gambling for that moment and come back another time, if you want to use any strategy to win back your loss, then don't be suprise that you will keep on losing.

Stop and try to chill for a while,

you might find some breathing instead of chasing for your losses and continue to add more money to lose
when you already suffering from a bad losing streak. Something that is really hard to stop when you are getting aggressive to win
back those amounts that you are not willing to let go, you need to accept that inside gambling there's always a huge risk.

I think he should give the girl the choice and let her decide what she really wants.
From all indication it's conspicuous about what her choice is which is my cousin should completely quit his gambling act and probably engage in other means of extra income other than gambling. And I suspect that her hate for gambling is what informed this development.

I understand where the girl is coming from, your cousin will soon become her husband and she wants a smooth relationship and does not want to experience what she has gone through with her brother experience, they need to talk this out and come to an agreement to something that will strengthen the situation, the girl just wants a guaranty that she is marrying a guy who can responsibly run a family and gambling will not become a big concern on their relationship and your cousin needs to prove this and guaranty it.

Good point! The girl just need an assurance that she will not be experience that same problem with his brother, you are correct
talking about this matter can give them a better understanding of the situations.
I can say that if they will sit it out and make an agreement to make sure that gambling participation will not be an issue
between them.

It's tough to work with the situation that you already have a broad pictures because of what happens from your relatives.

First, you should know the situation.

If you are on losing situation, never chasing the losses because you're on lose streak double the bet is kinda risky. I more like it double the bet on win situation, why? because who know you're still on the streak.

I have experience all-in betting by double everytime i win for more than 6x times and it's make me a good chunk money.

That's new, I mean most are doing martingale in terms of losing then double the bet, but in your situation, that's really something
which only a gambler who has a big nerve can do.

If you know the situation and you are willing to gamble with your luck, that kind of sweet outcome will be there for you, though not many
are lucky and I can say that most likely with 3-4 consecutive wins, that's more than enough to enjoy.
