The Atlanta Hawks have been about aa inconsistent as you would expect considering they've lost three of their top four scorers from last season. They opened the season 117-111 win at the Dallas on Wednesday but took a 109-91 loss at Charlotte on Friday. I think they're in for another tough game here when the visit the Nets at Brooklyn Sunday afternoon.

The Nets will have to do without point guard Jeremy Lin for the rest of the season, but that didn't stop them from beating the Orlando Magic 126-121 in their home opener on Friday. There's no doubt that the Nets can score points as they average 128.5 ppg through their first two games, and I'm not quite sure Atlanta can match that output as of right now.

We can also note that this is the first contest of a back-to-back for the Hawks, so don't be surprised if they call it a day if they were fall behind early to save some energy for tomorrow's matchup with the Heat at Miami instead.

My selection is an 8* play on Brooklyn Nets.
