After a substantial stretch of having no games, the Dallas Mavericks are back in action tonight against the Brooklyn Nets. The Nets, who have also not played in almost a week, have actually won three out of their last four, with each of those wins coming by double digits. The Mavericks come in having won four of their last five, with each of their last three wins also coming by double digits.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s a battle between two middling teams who have gotten hot out of nowhere, so it\u2019s time to throw the record books out and play ball! Before we get to the picks, lets recap last week\u2019s game.<\/p>\n
Well, terribly sorry for our performance last week. In fairness to me, the Thunder (who I took -24.5) were up 30 with less than two minutes to go before allowing an 11-2 run to finish the game. That\u2019s just nonsense. But alas, we can and we must be better!<\/p>\n
Being 2-10 in my last twelve picks is not a reality that I want to live in. The comeback starts now!<\/p>\n
Tipoff: 7:30p from the American Airlines Center in Dallas<\/p>\n

The Mavericks have had a full week off. They could either come out rusty or rested, and I am banking on the latter. Flagg has a great matchup as the nets can\u2019t guard anyone and Dallas should kill this horrid Brooklyn squad. Terance Mann has played well against Dallas in his past, and he will be the forgotten piece on the Mavericks\u2019 defense tonight, en route to a double digit performance.<\/p>\n
You should probably just fade me. After all, I am two for my last twelve. Unless I have used the time off to also work on my craft. I guess we\u2019ll find out, won\u2019t we?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"After a substantial stretch of having no games, the Dallas Mavericks are back in action tonight against the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":69013,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[35761,98,100,99,35518,35760,9,24,63],"class_list":["post-69012","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-brooklyn","tag-betting-and-daily-fantasy","tag-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn-headlines","tag-brooklyn-news","tag-mavericks-game-coverage","tag-mavericks-odds","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69012","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=69012"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69012\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/69013"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=69012"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=69012"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=69012"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
