Both the Atlanta Hawks and Toronto Raptors are in chasing positions right now, and both know that every loss lessens their chances of bridging the gaps they currently face.

Why bet on the Atlanta Hawks

If the Hawks (36-28) want to have home court advantage in the opening round of the playoff, they are going to have to find a way to close the 1.5 game gap in the Southeast Division. They have essentially split the lead with the Miami Heat all season long, but a recent dip in form saw the Hawks drop into second. Atlanta appear to be up for the fight, though, as they have won 3 games in a row on the road, and came close to making it 4 when they pushed the Warriors all the way to OT. This is a team that is beginning to look as though it is getting into a groove at the right time, and they are starting to show the form that took them to a conference title last season. The Hawks are averaging 102.2 PPG, and are giving up 92.2 PPG.

Why bet on the Toronto Raptors

The Raptors (42-20) are involved in a battle of their own, as they are trying desperately to run down the Cleveland Cavaliers at the top of the Eastern Conference. Toronto have cut the lead to two, and given the turmoil that is going on in Cleveland at the moment, you wouldn’t bet against them being able to close that gap. The Raptors have to take advantage of their home games, as that is where they have been at their best. Toronto have put together a formidable 24-7 record in their own building, but are going up against a Hawks team that has a winning road record. Toronto are averaging 102.7 PPG, and are giving up 98.3 PPG.

Expert Pick and Final Score Prediction

These two teams have only locked horns on one other occasion this season, and it was the Raptors who came away with a 10-point victory in Atlanta. The Hawks are playing much better ball right now, though, and I get the feeling they may just sneak this one on the road. Atlanta Hawks 101 Toronto Raptors 100
