Cam Thomas returned in style with 30 points, while Michael Porter Jr added 27, giving Brooklyn two potent scorers but raising questions about ball movement and touches for emerging guard Egor Demin.<\/p><p>Their defense has quietly been elite over the past seven games, anchoring this turnaround. Golden State, meanwhile, sits at 16&ndash;16 after a collapse in Toronto, still leaning heavily on Steph Curry. With contrasting momentum, this matchup highlights two teams searching for identity.<\/p><p><strong>Game Details<\/strong><\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>When:<\/strong> Monday, December 29, 2025 at 4:30 PM PST<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Where:<\/strong> Barclays Center, Brooklyn, NY<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>TV:<\/strong> NBC Sports Bay Area (regional coverage)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Live Streaming:<\/strong> NBA League Pass<\/li>\n<\/ul><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Recommended Bet and Updated Odds<\/h2><figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Recommended Bet<\/th><th>FanDuel<\/th><th>BetMGM<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Stephen Curry 25+ Points<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-FanDuel-sports-us-en\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"-220 (opens in a new tab)\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>-220<\/a><\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-betmgm-sportsbetting-us-en\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"-235 (opens in a new tab)\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>-235<\/a><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Analysis and Rationale<\/h2><p>Stephen Curry remains the Warriors&rsquo; most reliable scorer and continues to carry the offensive load. In their recent loss to Toronto, despite Golden State blowing multiple double-digit leads, Curry was again the standout performer.<\/p><p>The team&rsquo;s inconsistency and lack of dependable secondary scoring make it even more likely that Curry will need to shoulder the bulk of the offense. With the Warriors sitting at 16&ndash;16 and struggling to establish rhythm, Curry&rsquo;s scoring output is essential for them to stay competitive. Given this context, 25+ points is a realistic and well-supported expectation.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">2&#65039;&#8419;6&#65039;&#8419;,0&#65039;&#8419;0&#65039;&#8419;0&#65039;&#8419;<br><br>Stephen Curry continues to write history. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/b3kESGof8s\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/b3kESGof8s<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Golden State Warriors (@warriors) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/warriors\/status\/2004337166663745656?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>December 25, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nets vs. Warriors Prediction<\/h2><p>The Nets enter this matchup on their best run of the season, winning three straight and showing elite defensive form by allowing just over 100 points per 100 possessions across their last seven games. Cam Thomas returned from injury with 30 points against Minnesota, while Michael Porter Jr added 27, giving Brooklyn two high-level scorers but raising questions about ball movement and touches for Egor Demin.<\/p><p>Golden State, meanwhile, sits at 16&ndash;16 and eighth in the West after a collapse in Toronto where they squandered multiple double-digit fourth-quarter leads. Steph Curry remains their lone consistent force, but the Warriors&rsquo; inability to close games highlights their vulnerability against a surging Brooklyn side.<\/p><h2
