Atlanta at New York 7:30 ET
Hawks (+) over Knicks- After winning the opening game of this series with Atlanta I have stubbed my toe since and this one 'kills' me personally as the Knicks seem to have lost their confidence and it has a lot to do with Julius Randle's struggles which are being cause by the hounding dog-it Hawks defense. It seems New York coach Tom Thibodeau knows this team over-achieved this season and can't find the answers. A handicapper I respect told me you have to 'take the Knicks because you can only lose once' and I responded 'I would rather WIN'! It pains me but...take ATLANTA!
