Point Spread: -2.00 | -110.00 Atlanta (Home)
Result: Win
I'm playing on ATLANTA. The T-Wolves have been playing well for some time now while the Hawks have been struggling. This one sets up nicely for Atlanta though. The Hawks finally turned the corner last game, as they beat the Bucks. I backed them in that game and stated that a visit from the defending champs, a playoff rematch, was just what they needed to get going. Off that much-needed win, the Hawks had yesterday off. I expect Young and co. to carry the positive momentum into this evening's game. While the Hawks were resting yesterday, the Wolves played an emotional (2-point win) game at MSG. I like that they had to really fight hard and I also like that they won. The last time that they played the second of b2b games, after having won the previous night, the Wolves scored only 88 points. This will mark their third game in the past four days. Minnesota is just 66-101 ATS over the years, against teams from the Southeast, 1-4 ATS this season. The Hawks already won big at Minnesota and they swept the Wolves last season. Schedule in their favor, expect them to continue their recent success in the series this evening.
