Total: 200.50 | -103.00 Under
Result: Loss
This is a 10* TOTAL BLOCKBUSTER on the OVER between the Atlanta Hawks and the Brooklyn Nets.

What's happened to the Atlanta Hawks? They've held on to win both Games 1 and 2, but covered in neither and for the most part have been completely out of sync with each other. However, there have been some signs of life and this injured No. 1 seed is finally starting to get a little healthier and I think has a big opportunity today to try and claim a big 3-0 lead in this series. Atlanta has so far struggled with its offensive play, Paul Millsap had 19 points on 7 of 11 shooting in the 96-91 Game 2 victory, while big man Al Horford finished with 14 points, 13 boards and seven assists. As we saw in the first two games, this isn't going to be a cake-walk for the Hawks though, the Nets have been anything but pushovers so far in this series and note that they'd win seven of their last nine down the stretch at the Barclays Center. You'll want to make sure to track Brooklyn big man Brook Lopez as well, he's totaled 37 points and 21 boards over the first two games and had 46 points and 17 boards in a pair of home losses to the Hawks this year. I think this is a great situational play: the Hawks have won, but their victories have been laborious, they'll be eager to get back to their high-scoring, big winning ways, while the Nets are fully aware of the fact that no team in NBA Playoff history has ever overcome a 3-0 deficit to win a series. It's also strong from an O/U trend based stand point as well, as note that Atlanta has seen the total eclipse the posted number in 22 of 19 road games this year and in six of ten as a road favorite of 3 points or less, while Brooklyn has seen the total sail above the posted number in six of ten this season when playing with two days of rest. I think the writing is on the wall and a classic shoot-out is finally in the cards in this series, play on the OVER.
