(860) ATLANTA HAWKS
Take "(859) BOSTON CELTICS"
Boston certainly has its defense in top shape, allowing 77, 87, 77 and 84 points the last 4 games. That followed a stretch where the defense was awful without Kevin Garnett, but it's clear they are back playing intense, playoff-type 'D'. The Celtics are also 3-1 SU/ATS the last three games and off a tough, close loss at Orlando. They are battling for the No. 2 seed in the East. This is the middle of a tough stretch for the Hawks, playing San Antonio, Boston and Los Angeles, teams that have won eight of the past 10 NBA titles. The better team playing the better defense will rise. Play the Celtics.
