Warriors vs. Nets Prediction & Pick

The Nets finally earned their first win since Kevin Durant went down with a right MCL sprain. Kyrie Irving took over the fourth quarter with 21 points, which was only 2 points less than the Jazz scored as a team. Traveling to the Chase Center and earning another win is going to be a tough task, though.

The Warriors are 17-5 at home and have their stars back healthy. Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Andrew Wiggins are set to play after sitting out on Friday. Golden State ranks second in defensive efficiency at home and allows an opponent shooting percentage of just 44.4% (No. 2 in NBA).

Golden State is also 10-4 straight up in its last 14 games against Brooklyn, so rock with the Warriors.

Final Score Prediction: Warriors: 125 | Nets: 114

Warriors vs. Nets Best Bet

One of the Nets' biggest strengths is defending the paint, but that will make little difference against a Warriors team that thrives away from the rim. Golden State shoots 37.7% from three-point range (No. 5 in NBA), while Brooklyn allows its opponents to shoot 36.4% from beyond the arc (No. 20 in NBA).

Not only is Golden State 8-1 straight up in its last nine home games against Brooklyn, but six of those wins came by at least 8 points. The Warriors are 4-1 against the spread (ATS) in their last five games and will be looking for revenge after getting crushed by the Nets in December. They'll cruise to a win.

Bet: Golden State Warriors -7.5 (-110)
