ASA top play on 10* OVER 211. NY Knicks at Atlanta Hawks, 7 PM ET - The number on this game has been adjusted down from the opening game by 3 full points now so we’ll grab the value and bet the Over in Game 3. The first playoff game in Atlanta tonight is going to be electric and we expect the home team Hawks to feed off that energy. After both teams shot well in Game 1 at 45% or better, they fell well below their season averages at 38% for New York and 37% for the Hawks. On the year these same two teams shot 46% or better. Obviously, the Knicks are one of the best overall defensive teams in the NBA, but the Hawks can counter with the 8th best offensive efficiency rating in the NBA at 1.157-points per possession. The Knicks games averaged 209 total points per game on the road this season while the Hawks home games averaged 225 total points. All three games between these two teams in the regular season went Over the total and averaged 234-points in regulation. We like the trending pace of play and expect a much better shooting night here compared to Game 2. Bet OVER.
