This is an 8* play 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 stats and common sense:

The Kings are playing "over their heads" to open the season, but after five straight victories, we're expecting Sacramento to come up short here against a desperate Hawks team eager to get off the schneid after a three-game slide.

The bottom line: Note as well that the Kings are just 4-7 ATS in their last 11 after a four games or more unbeaten streak. Play on the HAWKS.
