Lebron still has the game, he will surely play a lot of seasons with the Lakers now that the Lakers has become a playoff contender.
Also, his style of play has been different now, he wasn't as aggressive as before, he master his passing ability so that means he will not be so prone to injury.

 Passing Kobe with a Laker uniform on a Sixers game could be as sweet as it gets Kobe is from Philly and dude is an eagles fan plus he went to lower merion and been always liking Sixers just under Lakers of course. Lebron has been a big part of NBA for about 15 years or so now, he didn't missed much games neither and has been scoring at a great level for all of it as well. I can't believe he is still the dominant player he is at his age, sure he might not be as good as he used to be 10 years ago in physical aspects probably but even at this stage of his career his "decline" is so little that right now he is still better than almost all players in the league, even today if you made a starting 5 you would put lebron in there for sure.

 With just 2-3 seasons more of 20+ ppg dude would pass Kareem as well, from all the looks of it unless something major happens like a big bad injury, he will definitely be the first player to reach 40k points. He can definitely play for another 5-6 years, maybe not at this level we don't know but in a league where Vince Carter can play at 41-42 years old, I am sure lebron would definitely be able to find a place for himself if he wants to, nobody will say no to him even if he becomes just a 10 ppg veteran off the bench in 10 years, he will still get a place in any team, so reaching 40k is definitely possible as long as he doesn't get injured and he wants to continue to play.

That was indeed a great game, I watched the game and it was really an exciting game to watch as both teams are making plays well to make it a close game. What I noticed with Luka is that he can't take over in the crucial time or in the winning time, I think he need to improve that so he can carry his team to a win against great team like Jazz.

Sorry to bother you again with the Jazz, but that was great game  (and win) last night against Mavericks! Mavericks had the lead most of the game, but it was always close, right till the end. An Important win against one of the teams that they are fighting  against for top 4 in the West, and the team that is playing very good away (15-6).
One more time Gobert showed why he is back to back DPOY and most likely this years DPOY as well. Just a little trivia i picked up from reddit

Beautiful  clutch time block from the last night

It is unfair that he still didn't get any All Star invitations, and i hope this year he will be selected, that man deserved it, one of the most underappreciated players at the moment.

If you didn't know Lebron James just made a history passes Kobe Bryant for 3rd on the All Time Scoring! What a Goat!

Kareem Abdul-Jabaar - 38,387
Karl Malone- 36,928
Lebron James - 33,644
Kobe Bryant - 33,643
Michael Jordan - 32,292

Maybe 3 seasons he will dethrone Karl Malone on his spot of All Time Scoring 

Great winnings! Glad someone could make good profits from sports betting.
I hope lady luck will also visit me to have that kind of long list of a win.


Those kind of games are the ones which is missed. 90's all stars where they are really competitive while also enjoying the game.
I hope Giannis could really push to have that kind of game this year. Boost them up to compete more and not just a simple display of their skills.

Damn it!
Almost perfection. You are one hell of a great predictor.  
Next time don't spoil that you lose one of the bets. Just post the photo. I want to get excited looking at it too.  
Congratulations man!

Who thinks Memphis could win against the Suns tomorrow?
-3.5 with 2.1 money line.

That's the spirit of a gambler, we sometimes get disappointed but still we accept the result and we move on.
Everyday there are a lot of opportunities to win especially on NBA where you can choose a lot of games and parlay it, what about try again today?

Sometimes easier to lose a bunch by when you only lose 1 it stings so I'm not sure if they feel good about their almost win.  Winning an 11 legged is tough man.  That was a close game and tough to watch if you were betting on it.  Keep your head up mate there will he other wins out there

Giannis has always been super competitive on all-stars for some reason, AD is also very good as well whenever he plays at home, remember the time all-star was in new Orleans? He played like a beast. Usually who will be MVP of the game comes down to minutes played a bit, a coach like Pop for example usually tries to give everyone equal minutes so that they could all have some fun on this special occasion that doesn't matter if won or lost, but some other coaches might think of keeping starters for longer minutes instead.

I would assume any star player that plays the most minutes will probably be the MVP of the game, doesn't matter if its Lebron or Giannis or Luka or Harden, if they are played 30+ minutes, they will surely give an MVP type of stats and play to people.

5 straight on a parlay isnt that bad and this one really hurt but well thats part of the game and also even if PG isnt there i would still bet on Clippers.

For a Shoe Brand then most likely that would be the contract amount but since it wasnt disclosed then guessing isnt wrong. 

These are the benefits on being a talented and a very good player where offers and other things will come after.

Since the captain mode is introduced, NBA All-star is becoming more competitive. There are still giving way in the first half for exhibitions but in the second half, it becomes more competitive. At least it is more competitive than West vs East format in my opinion.


I think if Luka teams up with Giannis he got a chance since it will be Lebron vs Luka showdown in the frontcourt. It would be fun to watch. My next bet is Giannis because he is very competitive even on All-star games.

Personally, I would like to congratulate you for almost hitting a parlay with only one leg loss out of 11 legs you choose.
Keep doing it, you don't know maybe one day you will finally hit that Jackpot.  

MIAMI though is very close to winning, but that's how parlay is graded, you lose one you lose everything.

CONGRATS!

Damn! that hurts mate, you just lost one on a great x347 odds if you have hit that parlay.
Better luck next time, maybe it's really not your lucky day, you've done a great job already, one day you'll probably hit them all.

don't feel bad!

Fuck Dion Waiters. I thought Miami Heat won that game because Paul George is out. Look how unlucky I am. Only that game (LAL vs MIA)

Hey guys, please pause for awhile, I like to share something (sorry if its a bit off topic),. Actually I hosted a game in our local on NBA betting competition with only 0.001 btc entry fee, currently we need more participants to make this a more exciting game.

in case you are interested, you can check my thread https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/nba-weekly-competition-00005-btc-entry-fee-5218814

its' already open now.

Damn, $100 million for under 20 years of age in NBA? That is huge.

But I guess Luca deserves what he is getting at this point of his career. He is even in the discussion for MVP this season, so I'm not surprised that Jordan Brand got a hold of him at this early because he maybe one day a true MVP or even a bring Dallas to a championship. Good for him.

Luca had so much success already this season, now in All Star and being favorite be the first pick, damn, can't believe how lucky he is now.

I don't know if its been already shared here :
Luka Doncic Officially Agrees To A Shoe Deal With Jordan Brand

The amount was not disclosed in this article but I think the offer should be good for at lest $100 million, what do you think ?

 On money line games I say;

 Dallas would beat Utah
 Bulls would beat Cavs
 Thunder would beat Wolves
 Lakers would beat Sixers
 

 These are looking like prime bets, I wouldn't suggest parlay tho, some of them are still quite risky. Specialy dallas vs utah is quite risky since they are very close level teams and not really too far from each other in situation as well. Bulls and Cavs are both horrible but at least Bulls are trying to get better whereas Cavs are just letting the tank sink in.

Okay, back to the ball game while the All-Star whole roster is not yet decided.
We have some good games tomorrow.

Utah -3.5 @ 1.92 vs Dallas +3.5 @ 1.89. Looks like a good deal.
76ers +3.5 @2.05 vs Lakers -3.5 @ 1.78. This is somehow difficult to deal with.
Thunders -1.5 @ 1.96 vs T'Wolves +1.5 @ 1.85. Winning a big lead against the Hawks without Adams and Ferguson. They could be exhausted.

Which is which.
