Atlanta Hawks vs Brooklyn Nets Prediction
I’m not excited to back the Hawks in any shape or form, especially laying a big number on the road. However, the Hawks should be complete in terms of health for the first time this season. Also, the Nets owner admitted before the season they’d be in tank mode this season, and they look like a team that’s doing just that. The Nets aren’t shooting the ball great, and their defense has been arguably the worst in the league. I want nothing to do with the Nets right now. It’s Hawks or pass for me. Yuck?
