The Brooklyn Nets<\/a> (20-61) and Toronto Raptors<\/a> (45-36) meet Sunday to end the regular season. Tip-off from Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Ontario, is set for 6 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze NBA odds around the Nets vs. Raptors odds and make our expert NBA picks and predictions<\/a> for the best bets.<\/p>\n Season series: Raptors lead 2-1<\/p>\n Brooklyn was routed 125-108 by the Milwaukee Bucks Friday, failing to cover as a 10.5-point road underdog while the Over (217.5) hit. The Nets have lost back-to-back games and have given up at least 120 points in all of their last 3 losses.<\/p>\n Toronto lost 112-95 to the New York Knicks Friday while failing to cover as a 6.5-point road underdog as the Under (219.5) hit. The Raptors sit as the No. 6 seed out East, but they could end up anywhere from 5 through 8 after this slate of games. With a win here and a loss from the Atlanta Hawks, the Raptors would be the 5 seed. If the Raptors lose while both the Philadelphia 76ers and Orlando Magic win, then Toronto falls all the way to the 8 seed and a play-in game. A win here guarantees a top-6 seed and playoff spot for Toronto.<\/p>\n The Nets came away with a 96-81 win over the Raptors in the last meeting Dec. 21 while covering as 3.5-point home underdogs as the Under (217.5) cashed. F Michael Porter Jr. put up 24 points and 11 boards to lead the Nets to the win. The Raptors were held to 37% shooting from the floor and 38% shooting from long range in the contest.

The Nets are also 2-0 ATS in their last 2 matchups against the Raptors.<\/p>\n The Nets will be trying to lose this game, but the Raptors have not proven that they can just easily beat this Nets team by over 20 points, and backing anyone to cover by 24 points is a bit ridiculous, so back the Nets here.<\/p>\n Be aware that the Nets are just 37-43-1 ATS compared to Toronto’s 42-39 ATS record.<\/p>\n BET UNDER 219.5 (-110).<\/p>\n The Under has hit in 4 of Toronto’s last 5 games and is 49-32 for the Raptors this season. For Brooklyn, the Under is 6-3 in its last 9 outings and 46-35 overall. The Under has also hit in 8 of the last 10 matchups between these squads, including the last 3 meetings.<\/p>\n Toronto has a top-5 defensive rating while the Nets are one of the worst offenses in the league, and that has shown when these teams have faced off this season. The Raptors have yet to allow the Nets to score 110 this season, look for that trend to conitnue here.<\/p>\n For more sports betting picks and tips, check out SportsbookWire.com<\/a> and BetFTW<\/a>.<\/p>\n Follow SportsbookWire on Twitter\/X<\/a> and like us on Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n Access more NBA coverage:<\/p>\n HoopsHype<\/a> | Celtics Wire<\/a> | Nets Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Rockets Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Sixers Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Thunder Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Warriors Wire<\/a>\u00a0| LeBron Wire<\/a> |\u00a0Rookie Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0List Wire<\/a><\/p>\n Our editors independently choose our recommendations.
