As expected, the Cleveland Cavaliers have struggled since LeBron went to Miami. They are once again positioned as one of the worst teams in the league at just 3-12 to start the season. That doesn't mean that they haven't been competitive as the Cavs truly have been. Over their last seven games, despite having just one win, the six losses have seen them lose by 8 points or less in all but one of them. There is no reason to believe that they can't compete tonight in Atlanta. The Hawks have sizzled to six straight wins, but it hasn't all been glamorous as they have lost three of their last five of those to the line. They are also just 1-8 ATS in their last nine at home, so they have been over-priced. When facing a team at home with a losing road record, the Hawks have taken the donut at 0-7 ATS in their last seven. Take the points and play on Cleveland.
