Analysis: Is this the night that the New Jersey Nets win a game?

It could be. Before gamblers reading this laugh at me, let’s study some stats. The Mavs will be playing off of two days of rest and are coming off of a 2 point victory over the Philadelphia 76’ers at home. Even though Dallas is 7 and 3 against the spread on the road, they usually don’t have to give up close to 8 points as a road favorite.

New Jersey is 0 and 17 straight-up but they are coming off of a four game road trip. Playing at home should definitely help them. Of course, because the worst team in the NBA is getting 7 ½ points, bettors don’t necessarily have to wager on them to win straight-up.

We could take the points. Would that be a wise thing to do? The Nets are only 5 and 12 against the spread in 2009 while Dallas is 11 and 7 against the spread overall but only 2 and 3 in their last 5 games.

I expect New Jersey to put forth a valiant effort. They will probably lose but they should lose by less than 8 points and are the wager in this game.

Winning Pick: New Jersey
