Brooklyn at Toronto

Probably the best thing that happened to New jersey was the ultra exciting, ultra competitive game they had vs Phoenix. It was a 2OT thriller they lost 161-157. It seems that since then this team has become more like the team that is supposed to win the Atlantic instead of bouncing around like the Boston's and the NY's of the conference. It was this time last year a 9-12 Nets team went on a tear and ran off 10 in a row. This team is also 9-12 and has won their last two by double digits, and they are looking comfortable and like the team everyone thought they'd be. Toronto has tried running, they have tried slowing it down, but the wins are still hard to come by. Bosh's scoring and play has been missed as they are scoring in the 80s on a regular basis. We believe New Jersey is ready to break out. Their struggles add to the line value here as they have begun to play at a much higher level than Toronto.
