DAL vs BKN Dream11 Prediction NBA Live, Fantasy Basketball Dream11 Team, Top Picks and Tips for Dallas Mavericks vs Brooklyn Nets

DAL vs BKN Dream11: Injuries are a common occurrence in the NBA as multiple star players can be out for a team for a single. One of the teams dealing with the absence of the stars here in Dallas Mavericks hosts the Brooklyn Nets. Dallas has won half of its games so far while the Nets are way above the 50% win mark.

Mavericks have been losing a lot lately and the cause seems to be more than injuries. Dallas has struggled on the offensive end at times and their schemes have been rather underwhelming at times. Can the Dallas outfit right its ship as soon as possible because it will be hard in the West if you fall behind.

Nets have done as well as expected. With two superstars in Durant and Harden, that comes as a little surprise. For Brooklyn, the presence of Harden and Durant has caused ruptures for the opposition and this squad has hung through despite the absence of Kyrie Irving

NBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

Mavericks: Doncic and Porzingis have work cut out
With Luka Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis, Dallas gets 45-55 points, 15-20 rebounds, and 10-12 assists each game on a regular basis. The absence of either can cause fractures in the offense and the Dallas team has shown that it can go ice cold in the game rather way too much. With Doncic out, the Dallas team has lost all its game and that is the most important stat of all. However, it isn’t like there are no scorers, Brunson and Hardaway can put up a ton of points but apart from three-four scorers, Dallas lacks scoring-depth big time.

Nets: Tough to beat
Brooklyn is a superb perimeter defensive team and that is one of the reasons why opponents have faced trouble against the squad. With Durant and Harden, you can stitch together 3-4 quality offensive possessions in a row and since Durant goes for the high-percentage shots, he makes this team the offensive juggernaut it is. Apart from these two, LaMarcus Aldridge has been contributing crucial 12-18 points at the big position as Blake Griffin has lost his minutes. With Bruce Brown, Patty Mills, Bembry, and Cam Thomas as major role players, Nets have found some depth.
