Brooklyn has now lost to the Hawks five times this season and went 5-of-20 from beyond the arc in game one. The Nets have a losing road record and are 1-4-1 ATS after a spread win, as well as 10-21 ATS against the NBA Southeast Division. They face the best team in the Southeast Division, the #1 seed in the East again. The Atlanta Hawks have great depth, physical frontcourt play and balance. They are #10 in the NBA in points scored, #2 in assists and #5 in points allowed. Mike Budenholzer was just named the NBA's Coach of the Year. The Hawks are 6-2 ATS at home against a team with a losing road record, plus 19-9-1 ATS after a spread loss, so grab the #1 seed at home and take Atlanta in game two.
