Mavericks vs Nets NBA Odds, Picks and Predictions Tonight

Mavericks vs Nets NBA odds, picks and predictions are as follows: Dallas Mavericks are 1-2 and Brooklyn Nets are 3-3. The game is a clash between two of the NBA's elite scorers: Luka Doncic and Kevin Durant.

Both the Mavericks and the Nets are still looking for their second win of the season. Dallas has let two close games slip away against Phoenix Suns and New Orleans Pelicans. Luka Doncic's transition defense and late-game decision-making are among his weaknesses. Nets have a whole host of problems, including Ben Simmons. They are a better team than the Mavs. They're a more talented team. The Nets' last season's defensive improvement was a smoke and mirrors. Their last game's result was against the Pelicans, who beat them by 10 points.

Simmons has missed a lot of games with a back injury and mental health issues. He's not playing well and his timing is off. His defensive game is not as good as it was two years ago. In his offensive game, he's afraid to take free throws and shies away from contact. He has to improve his game to play well against Luka Doncic and the Mavericks.

Mavericks are a slight favorite against the Nets. Both Kyrie and KD played 39+ minutes in last night's loss to the Bucks. Brooklyn has a 1-3 record against spread this season. The Nets are small, they're not particularly tough and their offense is predictable and ineffective. Outside of the Golden State Warriors, there has not been a reliable antidote to death by Doncic.

The Mavericks are the No.1 offense in the NBA through three games. The Nets have the second-worst defensive rating so far. The question is whether or not KD and Kyrie have enough in them to score against a Mavericks defense that has been unsteady. NBA Odds, Picks and Predictions are available at Sportsbet.com.
