Transcript
- 0:06Welcome to nature daily wager. I ain't picking winners but I am
- 0:10making wagers. Time to put my money where my
- 0:13mouth is. This is Nate's daily wager for
- 0:21January, man, February, February 12th, 2026.
- 0:26And well, I was a little worried there at halftime, but luckily,
- 0:30as I was hoping, as I was thinking, everything worked out
- 0:33there in the second-half and Spurs pulled ahead, won by
- 0:37double digits, as I was expecting and as I was thinking,
- 0:39and we only needed the 6 1/2. So it all worked out.
- 0:43We got the win, we got the West, we got the money.
- 0:45So, all right, I'm gonna stick with the basketball, I'm gonna
- 0:49stick with the professional ranks, and I'm gonna stick with
- 0:52being out West. Now, I will come to the east a
- 0:55little bit. I'm heading heading to Salt Lake
- 0:58City. All right, so the Jazz are
- 1:01pretty bad at the defense, but here's the thing tonight they're
- 1:04hosting Portland right now. Portland played last night,
- 1:07which is good because it's a back-to-back.
- 1:09Now. Not only is it a back-to-back,
- 1:11it's a back-to-back going to Utah where again everybody
- 1:14forgets or seems to forget that it's also high elevation, much
- 1:17like Denver. So I'm figuring, yes, Portland's
- 1:20probably going to win, but I think that Utah's going to
- 1:22cover. But that's not where I see the
- 1:24value here. What I'm looking at is this
- 1:26under, it's this total, right? It's sitting at 235 1/2, started
- 1:30at 2:36 and a half, so it's already coming down.
- 1:32People are already realizing, hey, wait a minute, like this
- 1:34might start off fast, but it's going to fade at the end.
- 1:37If you've got a chance to get anything in the fourth quarter,
- 1:40I'm telling you, take the under in the fourth quarter and bait
- 1:43Utah to beat Portland in the fourth quarter because Portland
- 1:46isn't going to have any legs because they played last night.
- 1:49Now the planet elevation. So we're going to take it
- 1:51simple. We're just going to look at that
- 1:53total and we're going to take the under.
- 1:55So we're going under 235 1/2 total points between the Utah
- 2:00Jazz and the Portland Trail Blazers in tonight's NBA
- 2:04basketball action. Same thing.
- 2:06Better than that. Found it.
- 2:07That's my pick and I'm sticking to it.
