I hate tonight's board but I don't like not playing at least one game. I was thinking Pistons plus the points vs. Atlanta, but Detroit just ruled out Jaden Ivey. So I guess this is it. Giannis has gotten the better of KD of late. My grandmother has been dead for a decade and she still has more guts to take a jumper than Ben Simmons (granny had skills!). Man, that dude is broken. The Nets really need Seth Curry back.

The Nets are off to a 1-2 start with both of their losses coming by at least 10 points. Ben Simmons looks rusty, and they are missing the outside shooting that Seth Curry (ankle) normally provides. They don’t have much size outside of Nicolas Claxton, so they could have plenty of problems trying to slow down Giannis Antetokounmpo. I think the Bucks will cover, but I feel a little more comfortable taking them on the moneyline.
