Cavaliers at Hawks: Odds, lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
Hawks 113, Cavaliers 101
Money line (ML)
The Hawks (-250) are a little on the expensive side, as they will cost you two and a half times your potential return. That's way past my personal money line limit of -180.
Plus, the Cavaliers (+200) just beat the Hawks on Feb. 23 in Cleveland by a 112-111 count, winning straight up as a 7.5-point underdog.

Against the spread (ATS)
The HAWKS -6 (-110) lost straight up to the Cavaliers +6 (-110) in Cleveland on Feb. 23, and Cleveland is 5-1 ATS across the past six games overall.
Atlanta heads in on a four-game win streak, and they have covered each of its past three contests at home. Look for Atlanta to exact a little revenge.
Over/Under (O/U)
UNDER 223.5 (-110) is the way to go, as Cleveland looked pretty tired and disinterested in Friday's 116-82 loss in New Orleans.
The Cavaliers have also hit the Under in seven of the last nine games overall, including their win over the Hawks on Feb. 23. The Under is also 7-2 in Cleveland's past nine as a 'dog, and 4-1 in their past five meetings with Atlanta.
