Saturday's Picks

Dallas -4.5 vs Nets: Dallas is struggling of late, losing 7 of 8. The Nets are currently on a 2 game winning streak after they themselves struggled, losing 6 in a row. The Mavs have been awful ATS as well going 1-6 in their last 7 games. So why still pick them after saying how bad they have been? Because its the Nets, the 12-31 Nets. Yes they have went 4-1 ATS in their last five, but nonetheless Dirk is finding his groove again and the Mavs are a flat out better team than New Jersey.
Pick: Dallas

Atlanta +3 vs Charlotte: The hawks are coming off a 100-59 loss against the Hornets, so its safe to say they  should come out with something to prove tonight. When you lose by 41, while only scoring 59 your most likely going to have a chip on your shoulder. Atlanta is a good team, the 5th best team in the east. Charlotte is not so good, but have been playing hard for interim coach Paul Silas. The Bobcats are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games while the hawks are 5-5 ATS. The fact that the Hawks are coming off such a bad loss is the reason you have to take them. They are professional athletes, they do have some pride.
Pick: Hawks

Season: 5-6-1
