Denver at Atlanta

Denver won the first meeting 138-93 against the dreadful Hawks and although it won't be that ugly this time around, the Nuggets still should easily cover the number on the road. Atlanta is 5-20 on the season with a 9-16 ATS mark as the oddsmakers can't seem to make the line big enough for the Hawks' opponents. Atlanta lost its fourth in a row on Wednesday 131-117 to Washington as a 3.5-point underdog after losing by 17 points to Golden State while getting 10.5 points. The Hawks are allowing opponents a .474 shooting percentage while shooting only 44.2 percent themselves. Denver has covered four straight playing on no rest and it snapped a seven-game winning streak with a loss at Charlotte on Friday night, which was understandable as the Nuggets played overtime while beating Orlando on the road two nights before. Denver has covered five of its last six road games and the Hawks are 1-7 ATS their last eight home contests. Play the Nuggets.
