After rocking with them yesterday, I’ll take the Hawks here today. I continue to think this Brooklyn side is overrated in the market and +7 for Atlanta looks like solid value.
They admittedly are playing a b2b here, but don’t seem to have too many injury concerns. This Brooklyn side has played a pretty soft schedule since the Harden acquisition, but they still haven’t looked all that good.
Not to mention the fact that they’ve been a poor road side this season, going just 2-4 both straight up and ATS. 7 points is a lot for a home underdog and Atlanta has what it takes to keep up offensively. Stick with the +7 and throw a little on the moneyline.
Not the biggest payout in the world but $1.68 is a reasonable return for this multi. Phoenix are $1.35 favourites over OKC, while Golden State are $1.25 against Minnesota.
While it is tough to beat teams twice in a row, I don’t have too many concerns for Golden State against Minnesota. Curry and Wiggins should be able to roast their poor perimeter defense and I can’t see Minnesota scoring enough to make up for that.
Phoenix also look like solid value at $1.35, although Devin Booker is likely to miss this one. Given how bad OKC has looked of late, I’d still back Chris Paul and company to do enough to eke this one out.
