    Hawks/Pistons?

    I usually like taking away favs of -3 to -8 on the ML, but Pistons have dominated Hawks in the past.

    +4.5?

    Taking the Hawks -2.5 1H, Josh Smith might not play full game, but pretty sure they will rack up a decent 1H lead. Not worried bout previous history, Pistons are just straight up terrible this year while the Hawks on a big upswing...

    you realize the only win the pistons have over the last few weeks was against that godawful Cleveland team?


    not to mention hawks are one of the best road teams in the league, they win by 10-20 in this one

    Detroit blew a 25 point lead vs Toronto, just transfer me your money so at least the books don't get it.

    My opinion as a fan of the pistons is to take ATL for the game, but don't touch the first half. Pistons have a tendency to keep it close in the first half, or even take a small lead to halftime. But they are awful in the second half, especially crunchtime where their lack of point guard play severely limits their ability to execute anything down the stretch when things tighten up. Basically, the team is just awful, but they always have a shot at winning a first half until the other team decides to turn it on. At which point, they don't stand a chance. ATL -4 tonight for me.

    LOL! I think someone needs to go and scrap the Hawks' bodies off the court. They got steamrolled!

    Thanks to the Hawks and the Raptors, every parley I had tonight died. But tomorrow is another day to try.
