Brooklyn Nets Betting Preview
The Brooklyn Nets were one of the biggest disappointments in the NBA last season, as they punted on the year in the middle of the season. Kyrie Irving was dealt to the Dallas Mavericks, Kevin Durant was dealt to the Phoenix Suns, and the pieces brought in to replace them were sent home in the first round of the NBA Playoffs. This season, expectations will be much more measured for the Nets.

Brooklyn Nets Picks, Predictions & Betting News
Offseason Transactions
Key Additions: Lonnie Walker IV, Harry Giles III, Dennis Smith Jr., Trendon Watford
Key Departures: Seth Curry, Joe Harris, Patty Mills, Yuta Watanabe
The offseason for the Nets wasn’t all that consequential, as they shipped off role players and brought role players in. But there is a concerning trend that emerged when looking at their offseason transactions, and that is the fact that the Nets sent a lot of three-point shooters packing. It could be argued that their top-four remaining shooters were sent away at the end of last season, which could have a major negative impact on the team this year.
Positives & Negatives
The number one positive for the Brooklyn Nets this season is the fact that we know who is going to be on the roster. The drama of trying to placate multiple superstars is no longer a concern, which will allow everyone left on the team to buy into trying to win games now.
However, this team lacks any real star that will help them turn losses into wins by simply having huge games. They could also be a bad three-point shooting team, as so many of their top shooters are no longer on the roster. Getting rid of players like Curry, Harris, and Watanabe and expecting Ben Simmons to play could turn this team into a bad group of shooters in a hurry.
2023-24 Brooklyn Nets Win Total Prediction: Under 37.5 Wins
For now, we will take the under on the season win total for the Brooklyn Nets. Brooklyn’s shooting is simply not good enough to expect much from them this year. Also, relying on so many second bananas to step up and play like stars can only take a team so far. Look for this team to win around 35 games and to fall short of the postseason in the Eastern Conference.
