The Brooklyn Nets are in a period of transition after firing Steve Nash and trading away Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving.

Yet Brooklyn, with the addition of Spencer Dinwiddie and Mikal Bridges (among others) at the trade deadline, still finished with a 45-37 record, more wins than the previous season, and locked up the No. 6 seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs. Still, the Nets suffered their second straight first-round series sweep.

While they may not be significant contenders to win the NBA Finals in the near future, Nets fans can still bet on their games with online New York sportsbooks. Here’s what you need to know.

How to bet on Nets games in New York 

New York residents have some viable sports betting options.

You can legally and safely bet on the web or via app at a number of top sportsbooks in New York. If you want to get started with a top sportsbook like the DraftKings app or FanDuel app, here’s what you need to do.

• You have to create an account. Click one of our links to do so, and you’ll gain access to the sportsbook’s sign-up offer.
• On the registration page, you’ll enter your information, verify, and submit. Your new account will be ready right away.
• Next, take the time to download the app for your device from the sportsbook website and log in on mobile.
• You can make your first deposit and check out the latest lines for Nets games by clicking on the NBA or basketball tab.

Once your account is all set, you can manage things at home. Keep in mind that you’ll need to be within New York state lines to place bets. Sportsbooks verify user location with geolocation software, so bets won’t go through if you’re not located in the state.

Nets Live Betting and App Download

You don’t have to be done with betting once Nets games get underway. Live betting provides you with even more opportunities to explore as the game plays out. Also known as in-game betting, this is a fast-moving style of wagering. It has become an extremely popular option for the high-scoring NBA. Here are some examples of what you’ll see:

• New moneyline odds, spreads, and totals for Nets games.
• Various team and player prop betting opportunities.
• Wager on segments of the game like quarters and halves.

Offerings will vary based on what’s happening on the floor. For example, if the Nets were underdogs heading in and got out to a big lead, the live game odds would reflect the new situation. Player props are a top highlight of live betting, and you’ll see many during the game, such as how many points a player will score or which player will hit more threes.

Sportsbook apps are a fantastic way to get in the game with live betting. There are dedicated sections for current offerings as the game progresses. Odds update quickly and payouts happen in an instant, so you can stay on top of all of the action.

How Do Betting Lines Work in Basketball?

Sportsbooks will post odds for all Nets and NBA games. You can find all upcoming matchups by clicking on the NBA tab or basketball tab. The next slate of games will appear in the betting lobby. You’ll see listings for each game that will look something like this.

• Philadelphia 76ers  +4.5 (-110)       +165                 O 214.5 (-110)
• Brooklyn Nets            -4.5 (-110)       -200                 U 214.5 (-110)

Each contest is listed with the home side on the bottom and the road team on top. You’ll see the odds and lines for the three main bet types — point spreads, moneylines, and totals — right next to the two team names. How do you read spread bets and moneylines? In this example, the Nets are 4.5-point favorites on the point spread and a -200 favorite on the moneyline in a game with a projected total of 214.5 points.

We can tell favorites and underdogs by the direction of the spread and moneyline: negative for favorites and positive for underdogs. A small gap between the two sides indicates a possible tight game, while a larger span points to a potential mismatch. For spreads and totals, you’ll see the number set by the sportsbook — 4.5 and 214.5 — and the odds for the bet, which are -110 here.

The odds can also tell you the return to expect on winning bets. Here’s a quick way to figure it out. When odds are negative, the number equals how much you have to risk to get back $100 in profit — e.g., $110 at odds of -110. If the odds are positive, the value equals your profit for a winning $100 wager — e.g., $165 at odds of +165.

How To Bet on Nets Futures and Props

NBA betting action isn’t reserved for game outcomes. There are additional options to consider with two of the most popular bet types being futures and props. As the name implies, a futures bet is on an outcome to be determined at a later date, such as a wager on the Nets to win the division. Props are generally based on single-game events.

When betting on futures, the object is to find the choices you want to wager on at the best available prices. As such, you should take the time to compare odds at different sportsbooks. Here are some of the more popular options you’ll see in the NBA futures market.

• Bet on the Nets to win the NBA Finals, conference or division.
• Wager on the over/under for the Nets’ total regular season wins.
• Make the call on whether the Nets will make or miss the playoffs.

A futures bet could have two choices, in which case it’ll resemble a moneyline wager with odds for both selections. There are also multiple-choice futures with odds listed for all clubs in the field, or individual options like wagers on a specific player to win the scoring title. Prop bets, meanwhile, tend to look like this:

• How many points plus rebounds for Nic Claxton — over/under 21.5?
• Which team will hold the lead at halftime — Knicks or Nets?

Beyond the two-sided props, you’ll also see some with multiple selections, such as the high scorer for the game or which player will record the first basket. You can find available props for each NBA game by clicking on the game listing. This is another good area to shop around, as the prices at sportsbooks can be different for the same prop.

House Rules for Betting on NBA Games

House rules provide you with a heads up on how sportsbooks handle things. There’s a specific set of rules for each sport that covers circumstances that could impact things like bet placement or settlement. There are a lot of similarities across the industry, but there could also be some differences in how various sportsbooks handle things. For the NBA, here are the basics.

• A sportsbook will consider a bet live once the game tips off. In the event of postponement or outright cancellation, wagers will be voided and refunded. For slight delays, the bet may remain in play if the teams will complete the game reasonably soon.
• Sportsbooks will settle all wagers — game outcome, player props, etc. — based on official league data and statistics. Once the result is final, the sportsbook will pay out winning bets in a timely fashion.
• Sportsbooks will not entertain disputes on results you disagree with, such as a bad beat loss or an officiating call that impacts the contest. Once the contest is final, payout is based on the actual result and nothing more.

Most sportsbooks have a dedicated section for house rules, while others include it in the same section as terms and conditions, help or FAQs. As mentioned, there can be variances between sportsbooks, so we encourage you to review the rules where you play. It’s better to have a full understanding of what to expect than to receive an unwelcome surprise later on.

Nets Schedule

The standard NBA schedule calls for 82 games per team, 41 at home and 41 away. While putting it together, the schedule makers follow a specific formula.

Brief Nets History

In 1967, the American Basketball Association began play as a rival to the NBA. A team known as the New Jersey Americans was one of the charter members. After playing a season under that name, the club was re-christened as the Nets and shipped off to New York. The team, led by Julius Erving, found success in its new home.

The club took down a pair of ABA crowns in 1974 and 1976. The ABA and NBA merged following the last title, and the Nets came along for the ride. Despite its success, the franchise didn’t stick in New York. It was off to New Jersey once again. Success was minimal until the turn of the century, with all playoff teams being bounced in round one.

The franchise turned a corner from there with Jason Kidd leading the way. The club made it to the NBA Finals two years in a row, losing to the Los Angeles Lakers in 2002 and the San Antonio Spurs in 2003. Since that point, the club hasn’t made it past the conference semifinals. Here’s a look at some of the key accomplishments in franchise history.

• League titles: Two in the ABA, 1974 and 1976
• NBA conference titles: Two, last in 2003
• Division titles: Five, last in 2006
• Regular season points scored: Brook Lopez, 10,444
• Minutes played: Buck Williams, 23,100
• Most rebounds: Buck Williams, 7,576
• Most assists: Jason Kidd, 4,620
• Most steals: Jason Kidd, 950
• Most blocks: Brook Lopez, 972
• Rookies of the year: Two, last for Derrick Coleman in 1991
• All-NBA first-team: Two, last for Jason Kidd in 2004
• NBA All-Rookie first-team: Seven, last for Mason Plumlee in 2014
• ABA MVP: Three, Julius Erving for three straight years, 1974-76

Along with moving around several times during franchise history, the Nets have changed hands quite a bit. Here’s the complete list of majority owners and years at the helm.

• Joe Tsai: 2018 to present
• Mikhail Prokhorov: 2010-17
• Bruce Ratner: 2003-10
• YankeeNets: 1999-2003
• Raymond Chambers and Lewis Katz: 1998-99
