DeAndre Jordan will not pick up the option of the final year of his four-year, $87.6 million contract with the LA Clippers, league sources tell ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski. This clears the way for Jordan to begin negotiations with the Dallas Mavericks as a free agent. The Mavs had previously explored trade options for the Clippers big man had Jordan opted to play the final year of his deal.

Seems Mavs are seriously interested in signing Jordan.

I'm really surprised you're discounting fedder what you do t understand is there're two fedder one for nourmal tournaments and other for Wimbledon. He's in some other zone when he plays there so I would never rule him out unless some injury happens. I'm sure you'll understand what I mean when he starts to perform and believe me he'll rain hell on his opponents.
I already stated that that could be the case. Also be known that Roger is soon turning 37 years, so, we should not be suprised if we started to see him in some less impresionating editions.
Wimbledon is starting tomorrow so let's see.

What a great day for Croatian tennis, we just got two ATP 500 winners.
Cilic won in London against Djokovic in 3 sets while our young hope Coric won in Halle against the best grass player Federer.

Not really a good year for Djokovic but he has started on a good track and maybe its not his day to win again in London. But Djokovic really fought hard that I thought he will gonna win but damn, Cilic fought back from match point and even came bak from 1-4 deficit in the tie break. Such disappointing lost for Djokovic.

What a injection to his self confident would that be. And he was pretty close. Only 3 points more he needed to finish match in 2nd set tie break. Kinda unlucky...
He said that he would return to this tournament in years to come.

Yes, This is a moral booster win for Cilic, at the brink of defeat, but he snatches it under from Djokovic and raised the trophy. I guess Djokovic is really unlucky this year but just like I said, he is slowly picking up the pieces and maybe a few more tournaments and a win will bring back his confidence again to compete for the top spot.
Yeah, you are right about next games which will clear the top players and let’s see who will win the upcoming Wimbledon tournament. Wimbledon tournament is the tournament of Roger federer because he has been dominant here since his start and clinched most wins here. Other players will also try their best to compete for the trophy but I think it is Rogers again.

There is no doubt that Federer is the favourite and one to beat however I do give chances to a few of the up and coming players to really give him a run for his money. I again am going for some value in Wimbledon just like I did for the French Open which almost paid off for me but Nadal was simply too good. So I placed a bet on Zverev, Cilic and Kyrgios to win outright all at over $10 odds.
With Federer losing in the Gerry Webber final, I am sure that he will be hoping that he wins the next tournament as a result of that. But i am sure that Nadal is going to continue his good form and win the tournament.
Actually, I think someone will manage to stop Federer on Wimbledon. Simply, he didn't buy me with his recent plays at Gery Webber tournament. He was even close to losing against Paire in 2nd Round.
I don't know maybe he didn't play with full strength but let's see.

Well, let's hope you are right. I think that with next big pump BTC can reach even $100k.
Now, our job is to wait carefully and to try to collect as many BTC as we can until that pump starts. Afterwards, we are going to moon   Cool

Wow, LeBron decided to decline player option of Cavs, so that means he will most likely be joining some other team. That will most likely be Lakers, but not necessarily. I am very excited Cheesy

Also, I am nothing less interesting about Leonard and George. Next days will be very interesting Smiley

Lebron is born be a losser. No matter how he played someone will overcome him. Harden put the Rockets in the 1st rank, Cavs 4th!?? Statistically Harden leads. KD beat him in the finals 4-0!!
Obviously you are not Lebron James fan buddy but i think LBJ is a unique player on his own way. This season LBJ does not deserve the MVP trophy because James Harden played so well throughout the season and he deserved it this year too.  
Yeah he doesn't like Lebron and there's too much that are being thrown to LBJ though he's playing and putting up his team on his shoulder. With team plays there can be someone that can outsmart his performance but if we're going to judge his individual performance, there's no doubt that Lebron is an exceptional player. No need to compare to other players, they have their own uniqueness and characteristics.
It's been 5 years since LeBron has last won an MVP. It's not like he gets it every year. I truly think he should win it. Harden has similar numbers from last year and he GAINS Chris Paul this year he finished 1st with rockets and got to 7th game against warriors that what it realy made the difference for him and got him the MVP reward this season also nobody tries harder than him he played better defense than LeBron and was far better at creating as well as being far above AD most of the year while Westbrook had a normal season. It seemed as Westbrook exhaled slightly after winning MVP last year .I expect the same slight exhale from Harden. Guy has grinded the reg so hard the last 3 years many felt that his stats last season should won him so it was due time for him to get it.

No doubt that the beard deserves last season's MVP because he is consistent throughout the year. He has big numbers, almost the same in the last 3 years so no question about his consistency. The only flaw is that he was unable to bring the team in the Finals again and looks like he choked again year after year. As far as LBJ though, no doubt that he is not a loser because he has proven himself and have rings around his finger. So that argument is completely flawed.
Reason why Harden won MVP regardless of LeBron's stats is that he brought Houston on top of the league while LeBron barely managed to win 4th place on East...
Let's if he will stay in Cavs or go somwhere else(LA Lakers probably).

What do you think about Mavs, guys?
They might be interesting this season.
They acquired 3rd pick on Draft Luka Dončić and with some more players they can fight for Playoffs.
Since they have space in cap salary, they can sign one Center, even maybe Cousins or Capela.

Starting five: Dennis Smith Jr., Luka Dončić, Wesley Mathews, Harrison Barnes, Center
On bench they would have: JJ Barea, Dirk Nowitzki, Nerlens Noel...

Interesting team to watch next season Smiley

Surprised that someone here is interested in Dallas Mavericks. Smiley I followed this team since 2003 and always updated at some of the happenings in the squad.

As far as the latest rumor is concern, some of the names that they might get this summer is DeMarcus Cousins and DeAndre Jordan. Clint Capela is just an option because it will depend on Rockets marketing as in the first place, they really want to retain Capela. But the story will changed if Rockets will really target Paul George or LeBron James. Well let's just see the progress.

Cousins on the other hand still will not seen on action during the early phase of the season so still Mavs aren't sure if they will take the shot of this guy as part of rebuilding process. They need more young guys to fulfill their first squad. Smith Jr. able to make good stats last season as a rookie and I see he will be one of the future face of the Maveriks. On the other hand, Im hoping that Doncic will do the same or much even better.

Well, I must say I miss them all these years. They were strugling last couple seasons and that was hard to watch.., At least they got good place at Nba Lottery which enabled them to get good pick (Dončić)

Also, Dončić is from my area so I will start following Mavs much often from now. I hope they sign some good Center and complete squad.

Đoković is back in Queens after 8 years. In his first match, he dominated John Milman and won easily 6:2 6:1. He showed pure dominance and reminded us at old days.
Maybe grass season is his time of the year Smiley

His next opponent is Dimitrov. Bookmakers made Novak favourite in that one.
Novak had many tough matches with players in the past and called as world number one and remained for sometime but the current ranking shows that Nadal is the world number one player in tennis. Novak has moved back to 22nd number in the tennis ranking and this shows that he is not playing well from several times. He can return and can achieve the first position again but this will take time.
Yeah, you are right. He needs to reach old form first. Actually, this week is pretty good for him. He reached finals, and he is right now playing it against Čilić and he just now won first set 7:5 Smiley
Winning this tournament would be psychological incentive for him and his self-confidence.
93  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2018 NBA Season on: June 24, 2018, 02:38:22 PM
Now, when NBA Draft is over, teams can start calculating with Free agents. LeBron James will say his decision in following days. The most favorized teams to take him are Lakers and 76ers, but in my opinion there is a big chance he will stay in Cavaliers and try to bring some superstars as he normally do.
This will be a hell of a interesting free agency to watch, looking forward to it!
The Cavs management are doing their best to stay Lebron on the team. If he will be traded, I would like him to go to 76ers. A young roster like Celtics but can be a playoff contender. He would fit in there.

Now if the management wants Lebron to stay in Cavs, they must reshuffle their roster and put some all star caliber players because Lebron can't do all things himself. He needs some back up from other players.

This.
Yes they really need to change cards. A lot of cards to shuffle. Grin

Lebron might be the King but he cannot win wars without his army. He needs a good one. Someone to rely into in times of off nights or so that he will not be fatigued.
Irving could have been the best for the team but he picks to be a team leader in a different team which is cool.

Jordan didn't win championships by himself. He may be the best player of the world but Scottie is there to shoulder everything when he is out. Kukoc, Paxson, BJ, Kerr and a lot more. This is greatness of both team and the Coach who can rotate everyone giving Jordan a lot of rest.
Sorry for the comparison but I just thought of it. Why is Lebron getting 40 minutes playing time? It means something. The reliability in his team mates lacks.

Lebron can make Sixers a championship team if he will join them.
With a good Center, it will be a threat for any teams and they can dominate the inside and outside as the sixers has plenty of good shooters as well.
I agree with you. I would like Lebron to go to 76ers instead of going to Lakers. Both the Lakers and 76ers roster are both young but if you can see, the 76ers are better than Lakers so Lebron can seek help there with Embiid, Simmons and more. If Lebron will go to Lakers, it will be almost the same as he did in Cleveland. 76ers have a good shooters as well. Reddick, Covington, Saric and even Embiid is also shooting threes too. He will be fit in 76ers if in case he leaves "THE LAND".
Yes, you are right. If he joins 76ers, they immediately become one of the biggest candidates for title, with Warriors and Celtics. Simmons, LeBron, Embiid,  imagine what trio would that be. Cheesy
Plus Šarić...

Personally, I wouldn't like him to go to Celtics, because they already have well constructed team, and they have great chemistry. They made it to Conference Finals even without Irving and Harward.
Let's see what happens now when they join team.

Potential first squad: Irving, Brown, Tatum, Harward, Horford
And on the bench they have talents like Rozier, Morris, Smart if he stays... They don't need LeBron Wink

Hi guys
I know this might sound like a newbie question, but Ive not had enough bitcoin to think about putting any in cold storage since Cryptsy ripped me off when they went down Sad
But just lately ive built myself back up a bit, and just need to check my understanding of a creating a cold wallet is correct ? This is what I think was the best way but im not sure Huh

1. Download latest BTC client
2. move to a pc not connected to the internet.
3. Create an address on that PC without internet.
4. Send fund to address created on PC with no internet access.
5. Save keys in safe place Smiley

Also I was wondering if there are any 100% safe third party wallets that enable quick access if needed ?

Sorry if my question has been covered many times, but I just don't want to make a big mistake.

Thanks
Rick

I would recommend you Trezor hardware wallet. It's really easy to use and it has great security system.(12-24 personal words long recovery seed). Also, if your wallet gets stolen, you may access it online and transfer your coins on safe place, so thief stays empty-handed Cheesy
Trezor supports large ammount of coins and tokens (515) and some coins are yet to be supported.
Best thing is that Trezor is pretty cheap, you can order regular model for less than $100.

You can find more information here: https://trezor.io/

While the Bitcoin price has recently been under the 7000, some investors decide to move away from it, while others see it as an interesting entry point.
What is the right thing guys ?
Bitcoin will rise again, that's for sure. It's only matter of time. This is not first time we are facing big fall of BTC.
I think now is good time to invest in it. I am not sure BTC will fall much longer, and you saw last time how little time BTC needs to reach $20k Tongue

Guys, tonight is NBA Draft. It's almost clearly that Ayton will be choosen from first place.
But, what are your thoughts about 2nd and 3rd pick? I think Kings will choose Dončić but what about Hawks?

However, this Draft will be very interesting and of the strongest ever. I am sure many of them will become superstars in years to come.

ESPN have ranked the top teams to be the winner of the world cup after the group stages draw with Brazil coming first with 20.8 percent ,Spain is the second with 15.9 percent ,Germany third with 10.9 percent , after that Argentina with 7.0 percent, then France with 6.0 percent, Belgium 5.7 percent ,Portugal 5.4 percent ,England 4.9 percent every group is represented with at least one team only Russia's Group A is the only group without a team ranked in the top ten contenders to be the next world cup winners.
I do not know how they arrived at those numbers Brazil is a good team but the favorite to win the world cup again is Germany, I will put Germany as the top team then Brazil, Spain, France and Argentina in that order, I do not think we are going to get a surprise team that wins this world cup.

I even think that brazil is now the worst generation for decades. Currently they rely too much on Neymar and Coutinho that even they are still less experienced, let alone Gabriel Jesus. Undoubtedly Germany is the strongest candidate for the champions. The depth of their squad is very strong. In fact they are champions in one of the last tournaments as they rely solely on young players.

Brasil has a couple good players not only Naymar
Argentina is much more depended om Messi
I think team from Europe will win that Mundial
I am so much for Germany his team is not as much strong like four years ago
Russia is my dark horse.Belgium is strong biggest chance i am giving to France
They have fantastic team
I truly hope some of the Latin America will win WC.
They play attacking football that is lovely to watch.
Look, for example, Mexico, they dominated and defeated last WC winner Germany.
As we speak, Uruguay won match against Saudi Arabia and qualified for 1/8 finals.
Whoever they face (Portugal or Spain), that match will be amazing to watch.
