Brooklyn at Toronto

Toronto has home court, but Brooklyn is super-motivated already locking up the No. 4 seed and they have a shot at overtaking Indiana for the No. 3 seed.  The Nets are on a 4-0 SU, 3-1 ATS run, beating the Pacers on the road Friday night and building up a 24-point lead. Point guard Deron Williams is playing his best ball of the season, notching three 30-point games in his last five. Backcourt sidekick Joe Johnson and center Brook Lopez are also coming on strong at the offensive end. A more subtle contribution has come from veteran Jerry Stackhouse off the bench, a solid game against Boston followed by 13 points against Indiana. The Nets are 12-5 ATS in their last 17 road games. This is the end of a three game trip for the Nets. What a trip it has been, whipping Boston 101-93 and beating Indiana 117-109 as a dog each time. Toronto is winding down a lost season, 5-14 ATS against the Eastern Conference. Even home court hasn't helped with the Raptors 3-7 ATS in their last ten home games and 2-7 ATS in their last nine games against a team with a winning record. Play the Nets.
