Premium Pick

Atlanta took a 2-1 series lead with a 105-94 victory on Friday, despite the heroics of Derrick Rose, who scored 30 points for the Knicks. It's unlikely Rose can come close to duplicating that performance, and Julius Randle continues to struggle as he managed only 2-for-15 shooting that game, and he's 13-for-54 in the series. Trae Young had 21 points and 14 rebounds for the Hawks, who shot 51.9%, and they have overcome their recent history against New York, which had won six of the previous seven meetings before the playoffs started. Atlanta is 17-4 ATS its past 21 games as a home favorite and 12-4 ATS overall with one day of rest. The Knicks have stayed UNDER seven of their past eight games and scored only 44 points in the first half in Game 3. Atlanta has gone UNDER six straight and is playing great defense. Play the Hawks for the game and the First-Half UNDER.
