Toronto Raptors vs Atlanta Hawks prediction
The Atlanta Hawks are getting the benefit of the doubt because they’re at home, but in what world am I laying 6 points? The Hawks have lost 4 straight games, they don’t play defense, and they’re 11-34 ATS on the season. No team in the NBA has lost bettors more money this season than the Hawks. It’s not even close, actually. The Hawks 24.4 percent covering percentage is 12 percent behind the second-worst team in the Hornets. The Toronto Raptors have their issues as well, but we’re getting 6 points to fade the Hawks. I’ll take it.
