Spurs vs. Nets Betting Prediction
It would be very audacious to bet against the Nets at the moment, regardless of who they come up against. But the Spurs have been nowhere near good enough this season and clearly stand no chance of winning this game considering their campaign thus far.
The Nets are unbeaten in 11 and have won 15 of their last 16 games. That’s the kind of form that makes you the prime favorite in almost every game you turn up to. The Brooklyn side should absolutely batter the Spurs.
Nets: -113
