Charlotte Hornets

The Hornets head into their clash with Atlanta on a four-game losing streak. Charles Lee's team lost on the road to Milwaukee (119:125) and then had a poor run at home, losing to Orlando (84:95), Miami (94:98), and New York (98:99).

Recent results show that the Hornets' offensive game has fallen apart. They have dropped to 25th in the league in offensive efficiency rating, averaging 108.2 points per game. Charlotte is in 12th place in the Eastern Conference standings with a 6:13 record.

Atlanta Hawks

Eastern Conference leaders Cleveland, who had only beaten Boston this season before Quin Snyder's team, were a tough nut to crack for the Hawks. Atlanta did it twice - first 135:124 on the road, then 117:101 at home.

In terms of style of play, Atlanta, unlike Charlotte, is imbalanced in favor of the offense. The Hawks score an average of 116.6 points per game, placing them in the top 10 in that metric, but they are only 28th in defense, allowing 121.2 points per game. Only Washington and Chicago allow more than that.

Expert Betting Tips

Atlanta is an inconsistent team that should be considered a clear favorite, even after two straight wins over Eastern Conference leaders Cleveland and even against Charlotte. Let's take a chance and back the Hornets, who have won seven of their last ten games against the Hawks.
