Dallas at Atlanta

With the Spurs' win last night in Portland, the Mavs have fallen a full game behind San Antonio (54-15 to 53-16) in the race for the West's best record (also SW Division lead). Dallas is coming off a heart-breaking last-second one-point loss to Golden State on Thursday despite Nowitzki's 51 points and could really use a win tonight in Atlanta. The Hawks are 1-4 ATS in its last 5 games and 2-4 ATS in its last 6 home games against Dallas. Dallas is 22-10 ATS off a upset loss as a favorite over the last 2 seasons and 16-6 ATS in road games after scoring 105 points or more over the last 2 seasons. Look for a motivated Dallas team to come out and dominate tonight.
