Nets at Thunder: Odds, lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
Nets 123, Thunder 109
Money line (ML)
The Nets have gotten back on track after losing two straight games to the Cleveland Cavaliers. They’ve won each of their last three games – including two over the Miami Heat. With the “Big 3” healthy and beginning to mesh, I think the Nets go on to win this one comfortably.
Take the NETS (-450) to win outright, even with a lopsided money line that doesn’t come with much of a reward.
Against the spread (ATS)
The Nets are unsurprisingly favored by almost double-digits over the Thunder. They’re the far better team right now, even though OKC has won two straight after losing three in a row.
Bet the NETS -9.5 (-110) to cover and win by at least 10 points.
Over/Under (O/U)
This is a matchup between one of the best offenses in the NBA and one of the worst. Brooklyn is second in the league in scoring, averaging 119.8 points per game. With the Nets scoring as much as they have, the Over has been a good bet.
In the Nets’ last 10 games, the Over is 9-1. It’s 6-4 in the Thunder’s last 10, as well.
Take the OVER 231.5 (-110).
