Atlanta at Toronto

The Toronto Raptors scored 104 points in their first game of the season, but have yet to get to 100 since without the benefit of overtime. This is a team that realizes it is short on talent to be competitive, so they have chosen the slowdown defensive route, and it has done its part on the scoreboard with 65% of all their games failing to make it OVER the total. The Hawks went over the 100-points mark in nine of their first 12 games, but just one of their last nine without overtime contributing, so they have settled into the half-court game that seems to suit them best, and it has boosted the win column as well at 8-3 over their last 11. Toronto owns just 2 wins on the season at home and each of their losses has come by at least 5 points. Atlanta hasn't overlooked poor teams to get a road win and are 5-1-1 ATS in their last seven vs. a team with a home winning percentage of less than .400. The Raptors on the other hand are just 17-38-1 ATS when playing at home vs. a team with a winning road record. Play this one on Atlanta and the UNDER.
