701 NETS at 702 MAGIC
Take: NETS +2.5
There really isn’t anything to say here from an analytic, situational or scheduling dynamics standpoint.
Simply stated, the Brooklyn Nets are playing by far their best basketball of the season in games that only matter to them. Hats off to this team as they’re really working hard to finish an otherwise brutal season on a high note. Fact is, that’s exactly what the Nets are doing. While other non-playoff teams are either mailing it in or picking their spots to play with a little focus, this ragtag Brooklyn entry is playing extremely hard and reaping some positive dividends.
There’s nothing to the indicate the Nets feel they’ve done enough and will just take it easy in the final few games. Tonight Brooklyn visits an Orlando team that is limping home on a five-game losing streak. I’d rather side with the team that’s on what for them, has to be called a roll. Brooklyn plus the available points is the choice.
