This is an 8* EAST-COAST EXPRESS on the Brooklyn Nets.

We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we almost always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics. Sometimes these stats can be overrated and other times they help foreshadow the outcome of a contest.

This particular play is based primarily on strong/relevant ATS trends and the "revenge factor."

Not only does Brooklyn play with revenge after falling 108-107 to Philadelphia back on December 18th, but note that the 76ers are 0-4 ATS this year following a divisional contest and just 4-6 ATS after scoring 105 points or more. And note that the Nets are 10-7 ATS at home this year 7-5 ATS when playing against a team with a losing record.

The bottom line: Looks like a great spot for the NETS to score a solid win at home, lay the points.
