One of the most interesting of Monday’s seven NBA games is an intra-conference matchup featuring the Brooklyn Nets and San Antonio Spurs. The Nets will look to get back on track after having their lengthy winning streak snapped in their most recent game. Meanwhile, the Spurs should have their game legs firmly back underneath them for this, their third game back after a recent virus pause. This Nets – Spurs NBA betting picks preview will highlight the best NBA odds for betting on this game and give an NBA betting prediction.

Venue: AT&T Center — San Antonio, Texas
Coverage: YES, Fox Sports Southwest NBA League Pass
The Nets have been one of the NBA’s hottest teams in recent weeks. Brooklyn had an eight-game winning streak snapped in their most recent outing, a 115-98 loss to the Mavericks. Despite that result, the Nets sit just a half game back of first place in the Eastern Conference. Perhaps making Brooklyn’s recent form even more impressive is the fact that Kevin Durant continues to be sidelined by injury. Meanwhile, the entire Spurs team was sidelined for over a week thanks to virus protocol. San Antonio returned to action late last week, dropping their first game back before knocking off the Pelicans on Saturday. The Spurs are currently fifth in the West standings.

Nets vs. Spurs NBA Betting Prediction
The fluctuations in the over/under for tonight’s Nets vs Spurs matchup suggest that the NBA betting market is split on which way to bet this total. Of course, betting Brooklyn games to go over has been a profitable endeavor on the season. The Nets are 23-12 to the over this season as opposed to a 12-17 mark for the Spurs. With that said, the total has gone under in four of the Nets’ last five games.
The styles of play that these two teams deploy contradict one another. If the recent trend in Nets games is any indication, perhaps the NBA betting market has finally caught up for or even over-adjusted to Brooklyn’s offensive prowess and defensive deficiencies. The Spurs just played a statistically similar opponent in the Pelicans in their most recent game. The 131 total points scored was a high number but still falls short of the over/under on tonight’s game. This line is just too high for me to play anything but under.
