Cavaliers vs Nets Prediction

Another monster line, but I still have to lean toward the Cavs. The Nets are on the end of a back-to-back and if anything the win over the Lakers creates a letdown spot. The Cavs are at home with the rest advantage, and their cover percentage of 65 percent is the second-best in the NBA. The Cavs have beaten the Nets and covered a double-digit spread in the last two meetings.

The Cavs have won eight of the last nine games against the Nets and have covered five of those wins. It’s a huge spread, but I’ll lay it out anyway because the Cavs have been the second-most profitable team in the NBA up to this point.
