Brooklyn at Toronto

The Toronto Raptors got caught in a three-point barrage by Cleveland in their last game out, with the Cavaliers hitting 63% from beyond the arc. They now face a very poor Brooklyn team at home in a game that will likely see the Raptors "A" game stay in the locker room. Not only are the Raptors off a big game, after Brooklyn the schedule has them playing six straight games vs. likely playoff teams. That makes this game a serious "breather alert" for the Raptors, who can win without a full effort, so the bundle of points is likely to come into play here. It wouldn't be the first time for the Nets who have played well above the line at 41-29 ATS, with the points coming into play in their games at NBA high 20 times on the season. The Nets are a lot more competitive than their record indicates, as they are now 26-9-2 ATS when taking 5.5 or more points. Play the bundle on Brooklyn.
