Atlanta at Washington

Atlanta prefers a slower pace, #21 during the regular season in points scored. The defense is #10 in points allowed, and fifth in field goal shooting defense. Atlanta is on an 11-5 run UNDER the total, as well as 36-15-2 UNDER after a defeat. They are also 10-4-1 UNDER the total on the road. They face a Washington team that played a physical style in Game 1, holding the Hawks to 43.6% shooting and 28% from long range. The Wizards are saying they want to be physical on defense for the whole series. They match up well on offense with their deadly inside/outside game. The Wizards are 20-8 ATS when playing on two days of rest, plus 15-7 ATS at home against a team with a losing road record. Atlanta will try and slow things down but the Hawks are 6-16 ATS when their opponent allows 100+ points in their previous game. Take Washington and the UNDER.
