Atlanta at San Antonio

It is hard to watch as the San Antonio Spurs, a team that dominated for a long time are slowly falling back to the bottom of the NBA. The Spurs are just 4-12 to start the season. Right now they are playing even worse dropping five straight and failing to cover four of them. What used to be a defense-first team is allowing opponents to shoot 50% or better 37.5% of the time. Atlanta was expected to be one of the better Eastern Conference teams this year but was puzzling coming out of the gate 4-9. The Hawks have appeared to resolve their issues and are rolling now and enter this game on a five game winning streak. A win gets them over .500 so no letdown here. Make the play on Atlanta.
