Brooklyn Nets knows that the rest of the season will depend on the play of the ones who are healthy. Spencer Dinwiddie and Caris LeVert will need to step up with its two top stars out for the season. But the Nets have found ways to win even with Durant and Irving in the sidelines. It may not be an easy road for them but coach Atkinson surely knows what adjustments are needed.

Since losing Kemba Walker, the Charlotte Hornets have been struggling. Against the Nets, head coach James Borrego needs to get everyone involved. They may have won three games in a row but Brooklyn is a dangerous opponent. Devonte Graham is filling up the void left by Walker but still needs to work on efficiency. Terry Rozier and Miles Bridges need to help out more if Charlotte wants to pull the rug from under the Nets.

The Brooklyn Nets have proven they can win without their top stars. Dinwiddie and LeVert are no strangers to stepping up, a reason why NBA lines tip them to win.
