Brooklyn Nets vs. Dallas Mavericks Odds, Line, Prediction, and Picks - October 27 | 2022/23 NBA Regular Season

Can Luka Doncic lift the Dallas Mavericks over KD and the Nets?
Can Luka Doncic lift the Dallas Mavericks over KD and the Nets?

The Dallas Mavericks take on the Brooklyn Nets in a Thursday Night tilt of two teams reeling to start the 2022 season.

The Mavericks and Nets were teams that were supposed to be contenders in their respective conferences in 2022.

The Mavericks struggled to close out games, resulting in two narrow losses to the Suns and Pelicans.

The Brooklyn Nets need a third, legitimate scorer to step up and take some of the pressure off Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. We get two desperate teams searching for an identity facing one another in what should be an excellent contest.

The betting odds and predictions are below:

Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving are averaging 60 points per game combined. Last night, Kyrie Irving was imploring Ben Simmons to shoot the basketball. Get used to this Nets fans. There is some validity to what Kyrie Irving is saying.

If Ben Simmons isn't going to shoot the basketball, I'm not sure where the additional perimeter offense will come from. The Nets will continue to be a limited team until they figure this out.

Luka Doncic is doing EVERYTHING for the Dallas Mavericks--leading the Mavericks in points, rebounds, assists, and steals. The Mavericks have not replaced the offensive firepower and leadership left behind by Jalen Brunson.

Christian Wood gives the Mavericks everything they could hope for on the interior. Wood is a prolific scorer, averaging 25 points per game in 2022.

Brooklyn Nets vs. Dallas Mavericks Best Pick:

I mentioned previously that Luka Doncic is doing it all for the Mavericks. Why would we expect this usage to stop? Kyrie Irving is a limited participant on the defensive end as is. Luka Doncic should have his way in this one.

Luka Doncic; Points: Over 31.5

Brooklyn Nets vs. Dallas Mavericks Final Prediction

Which one of these two teams is likely to improve and change their course in a more positive direction? The Brooklyn Nets feel like a team heading for disaster.

Reports out of New York speculate that head coach Steve Nash is not long for the job and remains on a short leash. How long before we get the Kevin Durant/Kyrie Irving implosion?

Remember, Durant told the organization he wanted a trade in the off-season. Those feelings haven't gone anywhere. Luka Doncic is used to carrying the load, and the Mavericks feel like a team that will rally around their superstar.

Dallas Mavericks -2.5 (-115) (O/U 225, -110)
