Brooklyn at Charlotte

Rookie head coach Jason Kidd has taken a lot of the blame for his team's poor start. He should gain a lot of support for having done so, and I expect his team to respond tonight in Charlotte. The Bobcats started last season strong, but were horrible after that. They are 5-6 through 11 games this year, but I don't think the talent is there to sustain that. The Bobcats often take on unmotivated opponents expecting an easy win, but when they take on a road team that is less than .400 on the road, a team that needs to show up, they are just 18-37-1 ATS in their last 56. The Nets respond tonight, play on Brooklyn.
