Hawks vs Celtics Pickswise Expert Predictions

Point Spread Pick
ATL Hawks +6.5(-110)

To say that it’s been a rollercoaster of a season for the Hawks would be an understatement. Things have somewhat stabilized over the past week or so with 3 consecutive wins over the Grizzlies, Suns and Pacers. Granted, only one of those three teams is headed towards the postseason, but if you’re Atlanta you’ll take any win streak at this point. Zaccharie Risacher and Kristaps Porzingis remain out ahead of Wednesday’s trip to Boston, with Atlanta hoping to even their regular season series. The first meeting saw them give up 22 threes to these Celtics, that’s definitely the main thing they need to correct ahead of this game.

Boston continues to occupy the 2nd seed in the East, but there is very little room for error with the likes of the Knicks, Raptors and even the Cavaliers lurking behind them. You can’t really criticize the Celtics too much even when they lose to teams like Chicago, like they did a couple of games back. This is one of the biggest overachievers this season in the NBA, playing extremely well without their best player Jayson Tatum. They have found the perfect blend of three point shooters and defenders, pairing them up with a closer in Jaylen Brown who is having a career year as the number one option on offense.

It’ll all come down to how well the Celtics execute their three point shots here. Atlanta has done a solid job defending the perimeter during this 3-game win streak, with opponents shooting only 31.7% from three point land. Whether or not the strength of schedule had something to do with that remains to be seen, but this game in Boston will tell us a lot about this team. I’m ready to give them the benefit of the doubt and back them as road underdogs to cover.

Hawks vs Celtics prediction: Hawks +6.5 (-110) available at time of publishing. Playable at that number.
