Indiana at Atlanta

After many years of being a playoff staple, the Atlanta Hawks are in full rebuild mode, and this has to hurt. The Hawks enter this contest at a woeful 7-23 on the season. While they have gotten the occasional win, as they did last night, the good feeling tends to get erased in their next game, as they have yet to win consecutive games this season. After their first six wins this season, the Hawks have proceeded to lose their next game by an average of 15.5 points per game. Indiana was supposed to take a step back this season, but they have surprised at 17-14. The Pacers are in a very good spot as well, as a team that averages better than 103 ppg, and trailed their last game at the half by 15 points or more are 322-251-9 ATS. (23-14-1 ATS this year). Take Indiana.
