Nets at Warriors picks and predictions
Prediction
Warriors 112, Nets 108
Moneyline
AVOID.
The Warriors should win this game, but the line is too rich to suggest betting in favor of either team.
Against the spread
BET NETS +6.5 (-105).
The Warriors are the best home team in the NBA (17-5) and will have its starters rested. Even without Durant, the Nets will keep this game close. Brooklyn is 6-1 ATS in the last 7 meetings in Golden State and are 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings overall.
Over/Under
LEAN UNDER 234.5 (-105).
The trends for these 2 teams are a little different, but the Under seems safer here. Brooklyn’s offense has struggled without Durant and their defense has been playing surprisingly well. The under is 9-3 in the last 12 meetings and 8-1 in the last 9 meetings in Golden State. While trends for the Warriors suggest that the Over is safer, the Under is the better bet for this game.
