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
- 0:21May 4th, 2026. And well, Cavs ended up taking
- 0:26them down. Thought thought maybe the
- 0:29Raptors were going to claw back, get us a little backdoor cover
- 0:31there some of the ridiculousness and the flagrancy that the Cavs
- 0:35were doing. But now they they didn't and it
- 0:39was a legit 12 point win. So take an L there.
- 0:44That's what I get for betting out east, I guess yes Anyways,
- 0:48pick DL, get back on track. We're going to head back out
- 0:50West again. Kinda it's to the Western
- 0:53Conference again. We have the T Wolves taking on
- 0:56the spurs. I'm looking at this game.
- 0:58I'm looking at the spread. It's currently sitting at 9 1/2.
- 1:02Spurs is the favorite. Of course they're at home.
- 1:04T Wolves coming off the big win over the Nuggets and, you know,
- 1:10just trying to trying to figure out what's going to happen here,
- 1:12you know, feeling like maybe the series or at least this game
- 1:17kind of feels like it's a trap. You know, so not quite sure what
- 1:20I'm going to do really gone back and forth on this.
- 1:23I don't know if Gobert is going to be able to do the same thing
- 1:26to Wimby that he did to our favorite loaf of bread Yokich.
- 1:30But so at the same time as aunt coming back, he seems to be a
- 1:34game time decision or is he is that just a falsity to make the
- 1:38people think that he is? So I don't know it.
- 1:41Like I said, I'm just a little hot and cold on this, you know,
- 1:45a little, I guess Hoth and Tatooine, if you will.
- 1:47So I'm just trying to figure out where I'm going.
- 1:50You know, 9 1/2. It's a lot of points.
- 1:53But at the same time, I mean, Spurs dispatched Portland pretty
- 1:58easily. We're all kind of surprised, or
- 2:00at least I'm surprised. Nuggets are definitely
- 2:02surprised. T Wolves did to them what they
- 2:05did to them, especially without Ant out there.
- 2:07And yeah, so I'm just not quite sure what I'm going to do even
- 2:12to right now. So all right, so is I'm sitting
- 2:15here vacillating, looks like, looks like ants going to play.
- 2:18So if Edwards is in, then you know what?
- 2:21Think about it. 2 words #5 And if you take Sabach, got the two
- 2:24and the three, which gets you Sabach, be it minus or positive,
- 2:27that adds up to five. So let's go with the T wolves
- 2:30and let's take those points. So that's what we're going to
- 2:33do. That's the whole logic of it
- 2:35right there. All right, so we're going to go
- 2:37Minnesota, go to Timberwolves plus 9 1/2 against the San
- 2:40Antonio Spurs and tonight's NBA Western Conference second round
- 2:46basketball playoff action. Is there anything better than
- 2:49that? Pound it.
- 2:50That's my pick and I'm sticking to it.
- 2:51And may the fourth be with you. I mean, may the force be with
- 2:55you. I don't have a lift.
