Transcript
- 0:06Welcome to Nate's daily wager. I ain't picking winners, but I
- 0:10am making wagers. Time to put my money where my
- 0:13mouth is. This is Nate's Daily wager for
- 0:20May 25th, 2026 and somber Memorial Day to everyone out
- 0:27there today as we remember, memorialize if you will, those
- 0:32who have fought for the US, really everybody who has fought
- 0:36for democracy and individual rights and equality across the
- 0:41world. Those who don't believe that
- 0:43authoritarianism or divine right is the way to go.
- 0:47That it's each individual as them, as a person, collectively,
- 0:53that is what makes us great. We remember those people that
- 0:56gave the ultimate sacrifice to push that idea forward.
- 1:00So to those and their families, we say thank you.
- 1:03So last night, I can't really say thank you to the Oklahoma
- 1:08City Thunder. I think they got there.
- 1:11That was the worst loss of their season by getting the brakes
- 1:14beat off of them. It also allowed Wemby to sit on
- 1:18the bench for pretty much at least the second-half of that
- 1:21fourth quarter, which resulted in him not getting a double
- 1:23double, which cost me another wager that I had.
- 1:27So not only did I lose the main wager, I also lost my little
- 1:31prop bet on the side only because the Thunder got blown
- 1:35out so bad that Wemby didn't have to play.
- 1:37So take that L. We'll regroup, see what's going
- 1:41to happen. But you know, I guess this kind
- 1:43of makes sense. Figured that was going to end up
- 1:45at 7 anyways. So tonight, though, we're back
- 1:48out east. We're back to just wrap this one
- 1:51up. This is a formality.
- 1:52This is essentially the end of the road here.
- 1:55Cleveland don't want to go back to New York for no reason.
- 1:58So they're just going to, you know, do what they do.
- 2:01Hardens ready to go find some more strip clubs, get himself
- 2:04some lemon pepper wings and begin his offseason.
- 2:08So he's, it's definitely going to be Game 7, Harden tonight in
- 2:12a game four and Knicks are going to go in there.
- 2:15They're ready. They can feel it.
- 2:17They're going to put it down. They're going to finish them
- 2:19off. And that's just the way it is.
- 2:21Definitely double digit win tonight.
- 2:22I don't, I just don't think Cleveland has it in them to
- 2:25fight. So we'll give up the points even
- 2:28though they're on the road and I, I feel fine about that.
- 2:30So we're taking New York Knicks -2 1/2 against the Cleveland
- 2:35Cavaliers in tonight's NBA Eastern Conference Finals
- 2:40basketball action. So anything better than that?
- 2:42Pound it. That's my pick, and I'm sticking
- 2:44to it. All right, finish your mouth,
