[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Brooklyn Nets (25-38) visit the Charlotte Hornets (15-48) Saturday. Tip-off from Spectrum Center is set for 7 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Nets vs. Hornets odds and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

Season series: Tied 1-1

Brooklyn was handed a 118-112 loss by the Detroit Pistons Thursday while failing to cover as a 2.5-point road favorite. G Dennis Schroder and G Lonnie Walker IV combined for 52 points, but the Nets lost the rebounding battle 28-50. The Nets have lost 2 of their last 3 games.

Charlotte suffered a 112-100 loss vs. the Washington Wizards Friday while failing to cover as a 2.5-point road underdog. The Hornets hit only 9 of 42 (21.4%) from deep and scored just 16 points in the 1st quarter. Charlotte has lost 6 consecutive games and is 0-2 against the spread (ATS) in its last 2 contests.

These teams have each covered once in 2 meetings this season, and the Over has gone 2-0. The Hornets covered as 9.5-point underdogs in a 129-128 win at Brooklyn in the most recent meeting Nov. 30 as the Over (223.5) hit. G Terry Rozier, who is now with the Miami Heat, scored a game-high 37 points for Charlotte.

Nets at Hornets picks and predictions

Prediction

Nets 108, Hornets 99

Moneyline

PASS.

Brooklyn (-240) should pick up the win, but the Nets are favored just slightly too heavily for me to advise betting on. Bet on the spread and/or O/U instead.

Against the spread

LEAN NETS -6 (-114).

Brooklyn has covered the spread in 3 of its last 4 matchups with the Hornets and is 3-0-1 ATS in the last 4 meetings in Charlotte. The Nets have also been the slightly better team ATS this season at 28-32-3, while Charlotte is 25-38.

This is a very slight lean because both teams have been bad ATS this season and neither team has been hot ATS lately, but Charlotte’s injuries make this bet more favorable for Brooklyn.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 208 (-112).

The Under has hit in 3 consecutive games for Charlotte and is 9-1 in the Hornets’ last 10. For Brooklyn, the Under is 5-1 in its last 6 road games. The Under has been safer for both teams this season, going 34-29 for Charlotte and 33-29-1 for Brooklyn.

The Under has also hit in 2 of the last 3 Nets-Hornets matchups in Charlotte.

Be warned that the O/U battles in recent Brooklyn-Charlotte matchups have been very even.

Brooklyn Nets at Charlotte Hornets odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Monday’s Brooklyn Nets at Charlotte Hornets odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Brooklyn Nets (0-2) face the Charlotte Hornets (1-1) on Monday at Spectrum Center. Tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Nets vs. Hornets odds and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

Season series: First meeting; Nets won 4-0 last season

The Nets covered as 6-point road underdogs in their 125-120 loss to the Dallas Mavericks on Friday as the Over of 230 easily cleared. G Cam Thomas has been a bright spot for Brooklyn, producing 30-plus points in back-to-back games.

The Hornets were defeated 111-99 by the Detroit Pistons on Friday, failing to cover as 4.5-point home favorites and the Under of 227 points hit. G LaMelo Ball has gotten off to a slow start for Charlotte, connecting on just 8 of his 32 field-goal attempts thus far.

Nets at Hornets picks and predictions

Prediction

Nets 118, Hornets 113

Moneyline

Even with Brooklyn being without Claxton and Johnson, I’ll back the NETS (-115) on the road in Monday’s matchup. While the Nets are seeking their 1st win of the season, they are the superior team, and they swept the Hornets in the season series last season.

The Hornets also have a true-shooting percentage of 53.6 (22nd in the NBA), so I don’t think they’ll convert enough shots to defeat the Nets.

Against the spread

NETS -1.5 (+100) has fantastic value as Brooklyn should come away with a victory against an inferior Charlotte squad. The trio of F Mikal Bridges, G Ben Simmons, and Thomas is enough to secure the road win.

Despite losing their 1st 2 games, the Nets are 2-0 ATS to begin the season. Meanwhile, the Hornets are coming off a game in which they failed to cover as 4.5-point favorites at home against the Pistons in a 12-point loss.

Over/Under

Any game involving the Hornets is likely going to be played at a fast pace, making OVER 227.5 (-110) an enticing wager. Charlotte plays at the 2nd-fastest pace in the NBA through 2 games, while Brooklyn is 8th in offensive rating so far.

The Nets are also 2-0 to the Over this season after playing the Mavericks and the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The Nets failed to cover the spread as 7-point favorites in a 108-107 win at the Atlanta Hawks Wednesday. G Kyrie Irving scored 15 of his game-high 28 points in the 4th quarter as Brooklyn picked up its 10th-straight win.

The Nets are 6-2 against the spread (ATS) in their last 8 games.

The Hornets covered as 2.5-point home favorites 121-113 vs. the Oklahoma City Thunder Thursday. G LaMelo Ball finished with 27 points, 10 rebounds and 9 assists as Charlotte improved to just 3-11 in its last 14 games.

The Hornets are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games following a win, but are 3-1-1 ATS vs. the Nets in their last 5 head-to-head meetings.

Hornets at Nets picks and predictions

Prediction

Nets 116, Hornets 115

Moneyline

PASS.

The Nets (-260) should win, but risking more than 2 times your potential profit on a team that almost lost to the Hawks seems unnecessary. Bet the spread or total instead.

Against the spread

BET HORNETS +6.5 (-105).

The Nets barely defeated the Hawks Wednesday and only covered for 6% of the game. The market is slightly overrating Brooklyn since it owns the longest-active winning streak in the NBA at 10 games.

The Hornets have looked good lately, covering vs. the Thunder Thursday and pushing as 5-point underdogs at the Golden State Warriors 110-105 Tuesday. Charlotte shouldn’t lose this game by more than 2 possessions. Take the points.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 237.5 (-110).

The Under is 3-0 in the Hornets’ last 3 games, and Charlotte is 5th in defensive efficiency league-wide over that span. The Under is 4-1 in the last 5 head-to-head meetings between these 2 teams in Charlotte and Saturday’s matchup at Spectrum Center should be another low-scoring affair.

Brooklyn Nets at Charlotte Hornets odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Brooklyn Nets at Charlotte Hornets odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Brooklyn Nets (3-6) and Charlotte Hornets (3-6) meet Saturday at Spectrum Center. Tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Nets vs. Hornets odds, and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

In their first game this season without G Kyrie Irving (team-issued suspension), the Nets won straight up as 3-point underdogs 128-86 Friday at the Washington Wizards. F Kevin Durant finished with game-highs 28 points and 11 assists.

Brooklyn has the 6th-best odds to win the NBA Finals at +1200.

The Hornets failed to cover the spread as 11.5-point underdogs in a 130-99 loss at the Memphis Grizzlies Friday. G Kelly Oubre Jr. led Charlotte in scoring with 17 points, but had a plus-minus of -40.

The Hornets are +600 underdogs to reach the playoffs.

Prediction

Nets 106, Hornets 104

Moneyline

PASS.

The Nets (-180) arguably looked better without Irving Friday, but may be due for a let-down game Saturday vs. a Charlotte team off of a blowout loss. There are better opportunities betting the spread and the total.

Against the spread

BET HORNETS +4.5 (-112).

The Hornets should bounce back off of a blowout loss at Memphis. The Nets are slightly overvalued in this spot coming off of an impressive Irving-less win at Washington but may have a hard time covering as a road favorite in back-to-back games. Take the value and the points with Charlotte.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 221.5 (-105).

Brooklyn’s offense should regress toward the mean after Friday as the Under is 4-1 in Brooklyn’s last 5 games after scoring 125+ points in its previous game. As for Charlotte, I expect its defense to bounce back after its Friday performance considering the Under is 6-1 in its last 7 games after allowing 125+ points in its previous game. This should be a low-scoring matchup Saturday.

Brooklyn Nets at Charlotte Hornets odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Tuesday’s Brooklyn Nets at Charlotte Hornets odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Brooklyn Nets (32-33) will be on the road Tuesday night, attempting to snap their current four-game losing streak. They’ll visit the Charlotte Hornets (32-33), winners of their last two games, in a 7 p.m. ET game from the Spectrum Center. Below, we look at the Nets vs. Hornets odds and lines, and make our expert NBA picks, predictions and bets.

The Nets have not fared well since trading G James Harden, going 1-5 since the All-Star break. They’ve only been favored in one of their last six games, which they lost to the Heat, 113-107 on March 3. They’ve slipped to 12th in the NBA in scoring, averaging 110.8 points per game and giving up the ninth-most (111.8 per game).

The Hornets have kept their playoff hopes alive by winning their last two games, beating the Spurs and Cavaliers in the last week. They’re still only 4-6 in their last 10 games, and have one of the worst defenses in the league at 114.6 points per game with a field goal percentage allowed of 46.2% – 20th in the NBA.

Nets at Hornets odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Hornets 114, Nets 110

Money line

PG Kyrie Irving is available tonight, which would seem to give the Nets an edge. However, they’ve won just one of his last 10 starts dating back to late-January. The series between the Nets and Hornets has mostly been back and forth over the last two-plus years, with the Nets going 6-4, but Charlotte won the most recent meeting in October.

I like the HORNETS (+135) to win outright at home tonight against a Nets team that looks out of sorts, particularly on the offensive side.

PLAY: Free, daily sports pick’em contests. Play now!

Against the spread

As underdogs of 3-4.5 points this season, the Hornets are an impressive 5-1-1 ATS, whereas the Nets are just 3-6 when favored by 3-4.5 points. The Hornets are also 6-1-1 ATS on 2 days rest, with their last game coming on Saturday.

I really like the HORNETS +3.5 (-105) to cover the spread against Brooklyn.

Over/Under

When the Hornets are at home this season, the Under is 16-14-1. Their defense isn’t playing well, but the Nets also arent scoring at a very high clip offensively.

The total is set higher at 239.5 points, and I don’t think it’ll reach that number tonight. Bet the UNDER 239.5 (-110).

Nets at Hornets: Odds, betting lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Nets 119, Hornets 103

Money line (ML)

The price tag on the Nets (-375) is a little steep, costing you nearly four times your potential return. Over the long haul, playing heavy favorites is not a winning strategy. While the Hornets (+290) are winless through the first two games, you can’t back them, either.

PASS.

Against the spread (ATS)

The NETS -8.5 (-110) are worth a roll of the dice laying more than four buckets on the road. They roughed up the Celtics on Christmas Day in Beantown 123-95, and they have won each of their first two games by an average of 27.0 points per game, easily covering each.

Over/Under (O/U)

UNDER 226.5 (-110) is the way to go, as Brooklyn has held the opposition to just 97.0 PPG through the first two outings. The Hornets hit the Under Saturday in a narrow two-point loss to OKC, and Charlotte might have some tired legs after the quick turnaround.
