Roland17:Why is KD signalling for a timeout when they have none as old as he is. |

Roland17:It seems Dodgers are doing a back to back. I don't see Blue Jays stopping them. |

aliondo:early days. thunder obviously not at full strength, and still enjoying last years championships. I dont think other teams will let Sengun be shooting over guards. But he is special, and I expect a double double average from him this season. |
| Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 5:34pm On Oct 22, 2025 |
Best opening game in a really long time. It had a playoff feel. It's ironic that KD in my opinion cost the Rockets that game with the missed free throw at the end of regulation. But Sengun. What a baller. For someone that rarely takes 3s. He couldn't miss NBC bringing back the GOAT of goats. It was a truly perfect start to the season |

Looks like that off-season workout with Dream worked wonders for Wemby. He's absolutely destroying AD. Belt to culo style Shame on AD. He should be carrying this team in the absence of Kyrie. Generationally gifted but quite the mental midget Klay just looks washed man. I hate to say it but Cooper looked real funny in the light. First game so he gets a pass |
| Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 5:05am On Oct 23, 2025 |
40 points and just 1 3pter See what happens when you don't spam 3s Wemby? ![]() |
| Re: The NBA Begins by kushercain: 9:45am On Oct 23, 2025 |
Total domination from Wemby. Wow! Blud is playing like a seasoned vet with years of experience |

A40:Just saw the highlights, why was wemby making AD look like a bum? |

liveLongNprospa:That Shaolin temple wey e go e be like e dey work oh. His workout with Olajuwon too. I noticed Wemby's footwork and upper body strength is now next level. He's now banging in the paint and playing like the 7'5 guy he is. AD did not want no smoke ![]() |

A40:NCAA Basketball doesn’t return until next month. You are right Football has been on but not far along as far as ranking. |
| Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 1:35am On Oct 24, 2025 |
A40:The fact that he now understands how to get easy baskets by playing closer to the rim is such an improvement in his game. The workout with The Dream definitely helped. I was most impressed with his pick and roll to the rim. Hopefully he doesn’t go back to spamming 3s |

SGA is the real deal. Forget |

Gordon is hot from beyond the arc! |
| Re: The NBA Begins by Skrrrrrrr: 5:52am On Oct 24, 2025 |
That was a good one. Great win.... |
| Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 6:00am On Oct 24, 2025 |
A40:Remember Joantay Porter, MPJ’s brother that was banned last year for inside betting? He definitely has parroted a lot of these guys. The FBI with this new arrests will get more people to rat others out or clue the FBI in a direction. I expect more arrests to unfold over the next year or two. We may see a really high profile.. |

Roland17:
Just look at this joker ![]() Did he think he would not be casted with video receipts like this The thing is with these bookies and the data it's almost impossible to get to any funny business and if you must you have to be extremely intelligent about it so you have plausible deniability. Which lawyer go fit defend this one. Not even Johnny Cochrane from the beyond Also Chauncey Billups moving with LA Cosa Nostra? Wth is going on?? |
| Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 9:54am On Oct 24, 2025 |
Roland17:It felt like he was fighting with one hand tied behind his back. When you're 7'5 spamming more 3's than Harden and Klay Thompson something is amiss. He is getting his man and upper body strength too. I strongly suspect he's been clanging and banging that iron cos the way he was pushing AD around was gnarly |
| Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 10:20am On Oct 24, 2025 |
Roland17:10 from 11. 50 pts on 21 shots |
| Re: The NBA Begins by larride(m): 12:31pm On Oct 24, 2025 |
A40:Players like this plenty for the NBA. I remember asking it here that why will a player play well one day and the next day the same player will refuse to shoot or be doing weird shot selection. There was a game I watched BAM Adebayo drop 24 points and the next game, BAM only had 4 field goal attempt the whole game. I knew it was fixed just didn't have proof. |
| Re: The NBA Begins by larride(m): 12:33pm On Oct 24, 2025 |
The NBA itself is guilty of encouraging betting. You can't take ads money from DraftKing and Fanduel then act surprised that the players are gambling. |
| Re: The NBA Begins by birdman(m): 2:27pm On Oct 24, 2025 |
larride:Dear God, I hope not. Im still shook Billups was mentioned in this thing. |
| Re: The NBA Begins by birdman(m): 2:31pm On Oct 24, 2025 |
A40:Man, I will be really disappointed if its true. Im hoping he just caught up in what he didnt know by association |
| Re: The NBA Begins by birdman(m): 2:33pm On Oct 24, 2025 |
A40:Curry never really got his flowers for influencing that championship team into what it was. And I hope Mark Jackson gets rewarded appropriately somewhere someday. We know what Curry was in the league before and after Mark Jackson coaching. Not to reduce Kerrs achievements as a coach, after all it was his system that brought the rings. But that crazy killer confidence and maturity was Mark Jackson all the way |

Roland17: birdman:Let's assume Billups did all these before he became a coach; 10yrs in solitary confinemet for him, his lawyer and his Uber driver. We don't care. I love everything. The consumers have suffered enough. Fans keep getting screwed from every direction. You pay to watch the games, guess what? You can’t even watch all of them. You gamble for a little fun, guess what? You can’t do that either. I don’t even gamble, but I’d be paranoid knowing the bookies, the league, and now players and coaches are all in on sucking fans dry and taking cuts if you win. Oh!!! The TV networks get their share too. It’s wild how all these organizations work together just to squeeze the fans dry. Honestly, Adam Silver had to know. I can’t prove it, but it’s hard to believe something this deep slipped past him. If he didn't know something like this would happen, it's even worse than the damage he has done to the league. Lock them all up. Even if my favorite player’s involved, lock him up too. But FBI working overtime when they can just also expose those PDFs? Ok |
| Re: The NBA Begins by SmooshCHN: 3:20pm On Oct 24, 2025 |
One thing that really baffles me is how these guys forget how good they actually have it compared to the average person. How can someone make more money in a single year than most people earn in a lifetime and still not be content? Where’s the disconnect? When does “enough” stop being enough? You worked hard, made it out the hood, made a name for yourself, built generational wealth and still choose to throw it all away? Baffles me. |
| Re: The NBA Begins by birdman(m): 5:24pm On Oct 24, 2025 |
SmooshCHN:You looking at the numbers my man. Numbers deceive. Generational wealth cant just sit in a bank account - taxes and inflation will eat 60 to 70% of its value in 10 years. For example a house worth $199K 10 years ago is now $450K. If you just saved and lived a thrifty lifestyle you would sill lose value. We havent even talked about 35-45% tax off the top! For wealth to stay generational, it has to stay in the economy as assets and investments. If you choose the obvious asset, housing, remember that housing is illiquid. Yes you have an expensive house, but you cant use the value of that house readily for another investment. When you add property taxes and maintenance, you actually lose money over time! Alternatively you can rent your properties out, but landlord work is tough, even if you subcontract it out. The best you can do is what the rich chinese, russians do, park their money into new york real estate. And pray ![]() So maybe you say stocks. In theory you gain 8 to 10% every year, but if you count in 5% inflation, you are really only getting 3-5% on your money. And when the market tanks, all that money goes down big time. Meaning you have to wait until market rebounds,or sell at a loss and run. In short, een though stocks are more liquid, you still need a wealth strategy and it gets harder the more money you have to invest. You can follow jay williams on instagram to get an idea of the type of education you need to hold on to millions generationally. But most cats dont know this until they are in that situation, and will typically lose 10, 20, 50 milli to bad investments, taxation and inflation before learning. Money, an excellent slave, a cruel master. And make no mistake, it wants to master you |
