Prediction

The Nets have lost the last 2 games without Kevin Durant and have been poor offensively as well scoring an average of 100 points per game. The Spurs continue to lose games but they haven't been that bad ATS covering in 8 of the last 10 games. They have been scoring 117.5 points per game but allowing 125 ppg in the last 10 games and the last time they faced the Nets they got destroyed. Durant scored 25 points on that game so I think this one will be much closer. Give me the Spurs with the points.
