Nets at Warriors: Odds, lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
Nets 123, Warriors 115
Money line (ML)
The NETS (-190) are the favorites in this game as PF Kevin Durant is expected to return to the lineup. With their three superstars, the Nets are tough to beat, even despite one of the league’s worst defenses. Against a Warriors’ team that has played better of late, the Nets are still the better play.

Against the spread (ATS)
The NETS -4.5 (-105) are two-basket favorites. Brooklyn hasn’t been good against the spread over the last three weeks (4-8 ATS in its last 12 games), but the Nets haven’t really been healthy either.
Look for them to dominate in this game, and potentially win by double-digits. Warriors PG Stephen Curry will help keep this game close for a while for the Warriors but expect them to fall short.
Over/Under (O/U)
UNDER 244.5 (-105) seems like the right play in this game on the account the projected line is one of the highest we have seen for a regular-season game in the NBA.
It is understandable as both offenses rank inside the top 10 in scoring and can put up 130 on any given night, but the Warriors have struggled on offense over their last three games, failing to score more than 114 points in any game. Look for them to approach that number Saturday, but for the Under to hit in this primetime matchup.
