This is an 8* SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION on the Atlanta Hawks.

We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics.

This particular play is based primarily on strong/relevant ATS statistics and common sense:

As note that Detroit is just 11-17 ATS as a favorite this year, only 4-5 ATS after playing three consecutive home games and a horrible 6-14 ATS against teams with losing records, while Atlanta is 6-2 ATS in its last eight as an underdog and 8-5 ATS after allowing 115 points or more.

The bottom line: Detroit's five game win streak was snapped in its 108-95 setback to the Clippers and we think it's primed for another letdown here as well, especially with a tough game at home tomorrow night against Anthony Davis and the New Orleans Pelicans. The Hawks play with revenge after falling to the Pistons in mid December and they clearly won't be taking anything for granted here after losing two straight and eight of their last ten. Grab the points, play on ATLANTA.
