Nets vs Hawks Prediction
The Nets have been in tank mode for months, and the Hawks need to win to stay as the eighth seed in the East. So, you can understand why this line is what it is. However, the Hawks aren’t a team I’m excited to back in the massive favorite role. The Hawks are an inconsistent team that’s also 38-40-1 ATS in the season. The Nets have won seven of the last 10 games against the Hawks and have covered each of the last eight games. This will be just the third time this season the Hawks are a double-digit favorite. I’m just not buying it. It’s the Nets or pass for me on Thursday.
