10* EARLY TOTAL OF YEAR: HOT 8-4 NBA $URGE!
(NBA) Cavaliers (CLE) vs. Hawks (ATL),
Total: 247.50 | -110.00 Under
Result: Win
Total: 247.50 | -110.00 Under
Result: Win
This is a 10* EAST-CONF NON-DIVISION TOY on the UNDER Cavs/Hawks.
The Hawks are 8-11 after breaking a three-game slide in a 135-124 win at Cleveland two nights ago.
Note though that looking back the Cavs have seen the total go UNDER the number in seven of their last ten (a 70% situation!), in trying to avenge a SU/ATS home loss as a favorite vs. an opponent.
The last time Atlanta posted a victory (a 109-108 upset at Sacramento, the Hawks then promptly lost 120-97 to the Warriors in the next game.
Expect a similar letdown here and while I don't feel comfortable pulling the trigger on the spread, everything points to a much more defensive battle this time around in my opinion, so the play is indeed on the UNDER.
Good luck, NP
