Tuesday 301 NBA Brooklyn Nets VS Milwaukee Bucks
The NBA regular season will kick off with a showdown between Brooklyn Nets and Milwaukee Bucks at Fiserv Forum. The Nets (48 wins and 24 losses) were eliminated by the Bucks in the second round of the playoffs. The leading scorer was Kevin Durant (26.9 points per game). The Brooklyn Nets enter this season as championship favorites. The Milwaukee Bucks enter the season as the defending Eastern Conference champions after winning their first NBA championship since the 1970-71 season.
The Nets are a trio of Kyrie Irving, Kevin Durant and James Harden. However, due to his epidemic prevention situation, Irving 's playing time is problematic. As of now, Irving will not participate in Nets games as he has not been vaccinated. Assuming these three are available at some point, the Nets have a shot at winning their first championship since the 1975-76 season. The Nets have certainly gotten richer this season with the additions of Paul Millsap, Patty Mills and James Johnson, all three of whom are still solid players in the NBA. If Blake Griffin is in better shape and Joe Harris has another rebound season, the Nets will be very difficult to beat in the 2021-22 NBA season. However, Irving's problems persisted.
The Milwaukee Bucks transferred PJ Tucker, Bryn Forbes and Jeff Teague, but they added George Hill, Rodney Hood and Grayson Allen. Giannis Antetokounmpo (28.1 points) and Khris Middleton (20.4 points) provide the Bucks with one of the highest-scoring tandems in all of basketball. With the leadership of Giannis Antetokounmpo, Khris Middleton, Jrue Holiday and Brook Lopez, the core strength of the Bucks has returned. Bobby Portis has emerged as a solid reserve player, while Pat Connaughton has been a standout, shooting 37 percent from three. Donte DiVincenzo has also been allowed to enter training camp. He will provide an important boost to the Bucks. The Bucks' overall strength level is not too different from last season.
Judging from the ATS data of both sides, the Nets have a record of 48-20-1ATS in the past 69 games and a total record of 13-4ATS in the past 17 games. The Bucks are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 home games and 4-0 ATS overall in their last 4 games. The Nets are 6-1-1 in their past 8 games overall. In the Bucks' last 8 games, the overall score is 5-2-1.
This regular season opener is a rematch of last year's Eastern Conference Finals. For the Nets, this is a battle of revenge. Having said that, the Nets are missing a key player in Irving. The final score predicts the Brooklyn Nets will win 124-118.
Tuesday 302 NBA Golden State Warriors VS Los Angeles Lakers
The Los Angeles Lakers will face the Golden State Warriors at Staples Center on Tuesday night.
After missing the playoffs the past two seasons, the Golden State Warriors will be looking to achieve better results in the new season. Stephen Curry is definitely going to have another great season after being hyped in the MVP conversation, but this season is more about how many games Klay Thompson has played after missing the past two seasons. We already know how good Draymond Green will be, he will only become more effective once Thompson returns, and as far as new players go, Jonathan Kuminga's performance is exciting.
Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Lakers made a lot of news this offseason, as the club gave LeBron James the support team he needed. Carmelo Anthony , Trevor Ariza , Malik Monk, Dwight Howard and Kendrick Nunn are all good players, but the main acquisitions are LaL Serge Westbrook, who will ease James' workload, especially during the regular season.Although there are many acquisitions in the offseason, the fate of the Lakers will largely depend on Anthony Davis 's ability to keep himself injury-free throughout the season.
Looking at the data trends, the Warriors are 2-7 ATS in the past 9 games as away underdogs, and 2-5 ATS in the past 7 games. Lakers are 1-4 ATS in their last five home games and 1-6 ATS in their last seven games. The two sides have gone head-to-head, and the overall score in the past eight games is 6-2.
Maybe you can't read too much into 's performance in the preseason, but if you pay attention to the Lakers, you will find that they are going through some growing pains, which is understandable considering the number of new players in the lineup. The Warriors will look to return to the playoffs. If Thompson can play a full season, they will hopefully achieve this goal. There is too much uncertainty at this early stage of the season. Look for the Warriors to take advantage of the Lakers' New lineup to grab points. The final score prediction is that the Los Angeles Lakers will win 113-110.
