*10* SURE SHOT on Atlanta Hawks.

The 8-4 Atlanta Hawks will travel to Brooklyn to take on the 1-9 Nets on Tuesday night, and Atlanta looks good as a small favorite. The Nets looked good losing a close game on the road versus the NBA best Warriors, but they fell apart late. It's hard to trust the Nets at this point, and I just don't think they are getting enough points tonight.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Previous History - The Nets have failed to cover in four straight home games, and the are just 2-8 straight-up in their last 10 versus Atlanta.

2. Dennis Schroder - With Jeff Teague battling an ankle injury, the Hawks will likely start Schroder at the point. We get a lower number here because of it, and I don't think Schroder gets enough respect. He had his best game so far this season in a 101-87 win over the Nets, scoring 20 points on 7-of-15 shooting.

3. X-Factor - The Hawks are 4-1 on the road so far, and they are 6-2-1 ATS in their last 9 road games.

Selection: This is a play on the Atlanta Hawks (10*)
