O/U Total: 202
The Hawks run in the playoffs is off to a positive start after beating the Nets 99-92 in their first game of the series and hope to continue to take it to the visitor again in tomorrows in Game 2. The Nets have lost 6 consecutive games to Atlanta but don’t count them out yet. The Nets didn’t buckle to the continuous pressure of the Hawks Monday night and managed to cover the spread for their backers. Brooklyn managed to out rebound the Hawks 47-39 and they also had the 12-6 advantage in the offensive boards giving them the edge in the paint scoring 54-42. If Brooklyn wants to win the next game they are going to have to improve their 3 point game as the Hawks opened up a ton of opportunity for them behind the arc.
Atlanta is looking for their second NBA championship and are one game into the quest. Five of Atlanta’s finest scored in the double digits including Kyle Korver who scored 21 points, Jeff Teague and DeMarre Carrol managed 17 points apiece. The Hawks got off to a quick start and maintained the tempo through the entire game. It must be noted that veteran player Paul Millsap looked fatigued coming off the injury list for Game 1 scoring just 6 points in this outing. In order for the Hawks to move forward they will need a solid performance from the big man.

Brooklyn (3rd – Atlantic) at Atlanta (1st – Southeast)
The Nets got off to a slow start getting behind by 12 in the first quarter and trailed at the half by 10. They made a good push in the 4th to get within 6 points with 2:02 remaining but couldn’t getting any closer’. Brooklyn shot only 25% from 3-point land and 68% from the charity stripe and any improvement on those numbers in Game 2 could have them in it until the final buzzer.
Take the Brooklyn Nets +9.5
