Durant is averaging 28.6 points, 7.7 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game this season, with Harden adding 20.6 points, 9.5 assists and 7.9 rebounds per contest. Brooklyn is scoring more than 109 points per 100 possessions as a team, with top-eight marks in field-goal shooting, 3-point shooting, assists and free-throw creation. The Nets are also in the top six of the NBA in defensive efficiency, and no team is holding opponents to a lower 3-point percentage (30.9 percent) than Brooklyn this season.

The model also knows the Mavericks have notable strengths. Dallas is No. 1 in the NBA at avoiding live-ball turnovers on offense, giving up just 6.5 steals per game to opponents. The Mavericks are also No. 3 in the league in turnovers, committing just 12.3 giveaways per game, and Dallas is in the top eight with 1.83 assists for every turnover. Dallas is connecting on 13.0 3-pointers per game, a top-eight figure, and Brooklyn is just No. 25 in the league in turnover creation on defense. The Mavericks are also strong in keeping opponents away from the free-throw line, which is key against the Nets.
