NBA Odds: Mavericks-Nets prediction, odds, pick and more

Brooklyn Nets host Dallas Mavericks. Dallas is coming off a 95-92 win over the Boston Celtics on Sunday morning. The Mavs are now (42-26) on the season and are 5th in the Western Conference. Brooklyn beat the Orlando Magic last night. Kyrie Irving played a 60-point game for the Magic. He will not play tonight.

Dallas is coming off two days and Brooklyn played last night. The Mavs will focus on Kevin Durant and trying to contain Seth Curry and Cam Thomas. Curry is injured and Thomas is questionable. Brooklyn is averaging 118.5 points per game. Dallas allows 106 points over their last 10 games. Brooklyn defeated the Mavericks in the last meeting on Dec. 8.

Brooklyn is winning their last four games. They are going up against the Mavs who have won eight of their recent 10 games and are on a back-to-back. Dallas is (19-14) on the road while Brooklyn struggles at home at (14-18). LaMarcus Aldridge is out for the Nets with a hip injury, and Curry and Thomas both missed last night's game against Magic. Brooklyn is 26-40-2 against spread and the Mavericks are (39-28-1) ATS.

Mavs are hot and seem to be playing well defensively. I'm taking the Mavericks to cover the spread on the road.
