The Atlanta Hawks are getting the benefit of the doubt because they’re at home, but this line doesn’t make sense. The Nets have been one of the biggest moneymakers in the league, with a 14-4-1 ATS record. The Atlanta Hawks are 5-14 ATS on the season. I want nothing to do with the Hawks in this spot. Give me the Nets and the free buckets.
