Boston at Atlanta

Premium Pick

Both Atlanta and Boston are chasing the Cavaliers and Raptors as they try to become players in the NBA Eastern Conference, making this an important game for both. Atlanta's season looks pretty good at 22-16, but they went through one of the worst stretches by a winning team this season. The Hawks went through a 1-10 stretch, so if you look at this team outside of that they are 21-6. That is an eye-opener as Atlanta has actually been an elite team outside of a horrific stretch of 11 games. They are playing at an even higher level right now, winning seven straight, going 6-0-1 ATS. Boston at 24-15 has been playing well of late as well at 11-3 over their last 14. The one issue for Boston is that they have not beaten a winning team on the road since before Christmas. Take Atlanta.
