BKN vs BOS Dream11 Match Prediction
BKN vs BOS Dream11: Brooklyn Nets play Boston Celtics in second of the four games between these two teams this season, as the Greens now hit the road after hosting the Nets in game-1 on Thursday morning (IST).
Form and the recent result:
Kevin Durant signed with the Nets in free agency in summer, but he won’t be playing this season, due to an injury, while Kyrie Irving has missed a few games already due to an injury. So in a sense, it’s understandable that the Nets are hovering in the middle of the table in the Eastern Conference. They have split up the season so far, having won nine and lost nine in the season.
That said, before losing 121-110 to the Boston Celtics in the last game, the Nets strung together a four-game winning run, which shows that the Nets are good enough to be a contender for the playoffs. even without Kevin Durant.
Boston Celtics, meanwhile, have raised their standard to manyfold this season, despite deemed as a team entering yet another transition period at the start of the season, especially when both Kyrie Irving and Al Horford left the franchise in the summer. But Kemba Walker’s inclusion has given the Cs a totally different dimension. The Celtics are 2nd in the East with a 13-4 return on the season.
Head-to-head:
This will be the 198th meeting between these two teams from the Eastern Conference. Boston Celtics lead the overall head-to-head record with 130 wins, while Brooklyn Nets have 67 victories.
