New Orleans is playing some of their best basketball of late beating Minnesota, Atlanta, hanging with the Spurs, and the Bulls. They also beat Cleveland, Detroit and Memphis as road dogs in 3 of their last 4 games. They get some extra points here against the Nets because Brooklyn beat the Spurs in their last outing, but the Spurs were missing some very important players. The Nets will have their hands full against the Pelicans inside where they shoot well over 80% of their shots which is among the highest in the NBA. Brooklyn is not great at defending inside the arch and I think it will be enough for Anthony Davis and co to have an opportunity to come up with another road win as an under dog. What's more impressive for New Orleans is the defense they have been playing over their last 5 games allowing 41.8% from the field compared with the 50% Brooklyn is allowing. Brooklyn is just 2-7 ATS as a 3-5.5 point favorite this season and 14-35-2 ATS in their last 51 Sunday games.
