Atlanta Hawks vs NY Knicks Prediction

The Atlanta Hawks have had some success against the Knicks in the past, so there’s some value with the points. However, the Hawks were comfortably the worst covering team in the NBA last season, and they’re 1-7 ATS this season. You’re sitting on a mountain of cash if you just blindly faded the Hawks dating back to last year. No reason to stop now. Give me the Knicks.
