Atlanta has been on a bit of a heater recently, while the Nets have been abysmal for most of the regular season. The market is reacting to that notion and the difference is reflected in the point spread. The line makes sense at first glance, but giant numbers against mediocre-to-good teams are often the most dangerous kind to lay because they assume not just superiority, but sustained attention. Atlanta is good enough to win this game cleanly. The question is whether the Hawks are built to maintain margin.

Big spreads need either relentless offensive efficiency or the ability to create repeated bowing of the neck on defense. Can Atlanta manage to do either? That’s the better question, but it’s easy to get behind a favorite laying this much against an opponent nobody wants to back. That is usually where hidden value starts. Brooklyn’s season-long profile is ugly, but that is baked into the price. Once the market makes the Nets this unattractive, the bar for taking them actually drops. Atlanta can be clearly better and still fail to justify a number this inflated. Given the fact that the Hawks sit 20th or worst in rebounding, scoring defense, and opponent field goal percentage, the backdoor is wide open for the Nets. That is enough to side with Brooklyn.
