Phoenix at Brooklyn

The New Jersey Nets will finish this year as either the worst team in NBA history, or one of the worst. They have just eight wins, and as the season winds down they need two more to reach 10, avoiding the mark set of just nine wins by Philadelphia. What has gone unnoticed is the fact that this team has improved considerably, and where it is showing up is getting the money. The Nets seem to stay in games only to lose, but getting 7 or more points they are 14-5 ATS in their last 19. The Suns have won eight straight, but looking at three bad teams they have played in their last four games, the Bulls, T-Wolves and Golden State, none of the margins have been greater than 6 points. The Nets have been hanging around, and likely will do so again. New Jersey gets the call.
