LOSS

Brooklyn has been no match for the Raptors so far in this series, and the Nets couldn't take advantage of an off-shooting game by Toronto as they shot only 38.8 percent themselves in a 104-99 loss in Game 2. Fred VanVleet and Norman Powell each scored 24 points for Toronto, which overcame a 14-point first-quarter deficit on Wednesday. The Raptors had gone OVER its previous three games, but both teams' poor shooting on Wednesday caused Game 2 to stay way UNDER the total. Look for both teams to be much better offensively in this one. The Nets are 9-4 OVER their last 13 games as underdogs, and they have gone OVER five of their last seven overall. Toronto is 43-20 playing with one day of rest and 23-9-1 ATS following an ATS loss dating to last season. Take the Raptors and the OVER.
