Atlanta at Boston

Atlanta is a .500 road team and got run off the court in Game 3, so the home team has dominated much of the three games. The Hawks are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 Conference Quarterfinals games. The Boston Celtics made their way back into the series behind 42 points from All-Star Isaiah Thomas in a 111-103 victory. Coach Brad Stevens moved to a smaller lineup, which paid big dividends opening up the floor. Out went Marcus Smart and Jared Sullinger from the starting lineup and in came Evan Turner and Jonas Jerebko. Turner had 17 points, seven assists, and five steals while Jerebko had 11 points and 12 rebounds. Boston is also an outstanding (and underrated) defensive team, ranked seventh in field goal shooting defense, plus fourth at defending the three-pointer. The Hawks have failed to cover the spread in five consecutive road games while Boston is 29-13 straight up at home. The Celtics are also 7-3 ATS against the Eastern Conference, so jump on the home team again. Take Boston.
