Hawks vs Grizzlies Prediction
Big number for a Hawks team that’s kind of come out of nowhere, but it has more to do with the Grizzlies than anything. The Grizzlies are a joke of a franchise that’s been shutting guys down all season, isn’t winning and doesn’t cover enough to deserve a fair look. We’ve been on the Hawks for a while and they’re 9-1 SU and 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games. The Hawks are 38-33 ATS on the season. The Hawks have a pep in their step and are oozing with confidence. The Grizzlies are counting down the days until the offseason. This game shouldn’t be close. Give me the Hawks in a home beatdown.
