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
- 0:20July 16th, 2025. And Will, I was feeling pretty
- 0:25good through the first part of that game, right up until the
- 0:29middle of the sixth. I was like, I got this two runs
- 0:32then now we got a bunch of closers coming in.
- 0:33They're just going to be throwing gas.
- 0:36And well, then the the home run started happening.
- 0:39They they started coming and they just kept coming and they
- 0:42wouldn't stop coming. And then we had a fancy old Home
- 0:46Run Derby, you know, like they did in the old times to find a
- 0:49winner. So took the L and that's awake.
- 0:53So tonight there's not really much on, but there is the WNBA
- 0:58and the game I'm looking at is the Wings and the Aces.
- 1:01So we got Las Vegas and Dallas and again, I don't know much
- 1:04about much when it comes to the WNBA.
- 1:07So I'm just looking at the numbers here again, I'm looking
- 1:10at those Pythagoreans, I'm looking at the defensive
- 1:13ratings, I'm looking at the offensive ratings.
- 1:16Just the numbers, doing some calculations, some low level
- 1:19analytics and what the numbers you're telling me is this should
- 1:23be a close game and the Wings are at home, so that should give
- 1:26them something just in general. And then I'm looking at the
- 1:29spread. It's sitting at 5 1/2 with the
- 1:32Aces favored. So I'm thinking, OK, I got
- 1:34Dallas, they're at home, they're getting 5 1/2 points.
- 1:37The numbers look good for them, should be pretty close.
- 1:40And that's effectively saying, you know, that the Aces are 8
- 1:431/2 points. It's better given that they're
- 1:45on the road and all. And I don't see it that way.
- 1:48At least that's not what the numbers are telling me.
- 1:50So I might be missing something, and I probably AM, but I'm going
- 1:54with Dallas. I'm going with the Wings.
- 1:55So we're going to take the Wings.
- 1:57Dallas Wings plus 5 1/2 against the Las Vegas Aces and tonight's
- 2:02WNBA basketball action. Is anything better than that?
- 2:05Pound it. That's my pick and I'm sticking
- 2:07to it. Don't forget to rate, review,
