Brooklyn at Washington

The Nets have not won as many as 30 games in each of the last three years. They have on a large scale been underrated, having gone 98-82 ATS in their last 180 games. The Nets are making progress as they had been posted as a +10-point underdog 62 times over the past three seasons, but just one time this season. Washington has been a negative surprise this season. A solid playoff team from a year ago find themselves at just 8-14 on the season and 6-12-1 ATS in their last 19. They have played no defense and in their last eight games have allowed 114 or more points. Brooklyn will hang tough here, so make the play on the Nets.
