Pennzoil 400 Odds to Win. 14 2021, the 2021 NASCAR season will head to Phoenix Raceway for the Instacart 500, which takes place from Avondale, Arizona.

The Atlanta Hawks (9-8) host the Brooklyn Nets (11-8) Wednesday at State Farm Arena. Tip-off is set for 7:30 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze the Nets-Hawks NBA odds and lines, with picks and predictions.

Nascar Odds For Atlanta

It’s been an interesting couple of weeks for the Nets, who acquired G James Harden in a blockbuster trade while simultaneously dealing with the absence of PG Kyrie Irving. It hasn’t been profitable betting on the three-headed monster in Brooklyn as the Nets are just 2-4 against the spread since Harden joined the team.

Atlanta has beaten up on bad teams but is 4-1 straight up and ATS in its last five games, including a 108-99 win as a 6-point home favorite over the Los Angeles Clippers Tuesday.

The Hawks lost to the other three above-.500 opponents they’ve played in the past two weeks in the Utah Jazz, Portland Trail Blazers and Milwaukee Bucks.

These teams split their earlier meetings this season, but the Hawks covered the spread in both games. Brooklyn won the first meeting in a 145-141 shootout, then Atlanta hammered the Nets 114-96.

Prediction

Nets 117, Hawks 106

Money line (ML)

PASS.

Against the spread (ATS)

Since the beginning of last season, Atlanta has been the worst bet when playing on no rest: The Hawks are an NBA-worst 3-11 ATS with a minus-10.6 ATS margin in the second half of back-to-backs.

This is major because while Atlanta has a relatively clean injury report at the moment, they’ve battled injuries all season with key contributors at less than full health.

Also, Brooklyn has to be motivated by getting crushed in its last game against Atlanta. Now that The Beard has joined forces with Irving and SF Kevin Durant, this game will go differently.

GIMME NETS -6.5 (-110) for 1 unit.

Over/Under (O/U)

Brooklyn’s 98-85 victory over the Miami Heat in its last game broke a 12-game Over streak. The Nets have the second-highest Over percentage in the league whereas the Hawks have the highest Under percentage.

Atlanta is going to be pumped for this rubber match so I’m disregarding any of that “tired legs from playing the night prior” talk. The Hawks will at least try to D up the Nets.

Despite liking the Nets side, I leanUNDER 238.5 (-110) for a half-unit because this is too high of a projected total for how reliant Brooklyn is on three guys.

The Atlanta Hawks (11-16) stop by TD Garden Wednesday for a 7:30 p.m. ET tip-off with the Boston Celtics (14-13). Below, we analyze the Hawks-Celtics NBA odds and lines, with picks and predictions.

Atlanta is in the midst of a four-game losing skid, including three consecutive double-digit losses. The Hawks dropped seven of their past eight games. Over that span, they’re dead-last in points off of turnovers and 27th in fast-break points per game.

The Celtics’ 112-99 victory over the Denver Nuggets Tuesday ended a two-game losing skid and it’s only their second win in their last six games. Boston ranks last in assist-to-turnover ratio (1.47) and is shooting just the 26th-highest effective field-goal percentage (49.8) in its last six games.

The Hawks have lost seven straight and 10 of their past 11 games against the Celtics.

Nascar Odds For Sunday's Race

Money line (ML)

Both teams are struggling mightily but the Hawks’ net rating is actually worse than the Celtics’ over the last six games for both teams. I was also much higher on Boston than Atlanta coming into the season, so I lean CELTICS (-120) for a half-unit.

Against the spread (ATS)

PASS on the spread because the money line isn’t much pricier.

Because the spread and money line are nearly identical, the ATS trend of Boston being 10-5 ATS with a plus-5.1 ATS margin in the second half of a back-to-back since the beginning of last season applies in this section.

Over/Under (O/U)

The OVER 223.5 (-110) is my favorite play in Hawks-Celtics. The star players for each squad balled out last season against each other. Celtics wings Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown both shot better than 50% from the field against the Hawks in the 2019-20 head-to-head series.

Atlanta PG Trae Young averaged 31.0 points on .442/.360/.882 shooting and PF John Collins scored 22.7 points per game on .650/.556/.917 shooting vs. Boston in 2019-20.

Also, Boston’s defense should be more affected by injuries than its offense. Theis is an average defensive big but he’s the best the Celtics have and Smart is one of the biggest difference-makers on defense in the league.

Boston is 27th in defensive field-goal percentage of attempts at the rim and Atlanta takes the 11th-highest volume of shots at the rim but is connecting at only the 20th-highest clip, according to CleaningTheGlass.com.

Finally, Atlanta excels at getting to the charity stripe and has the highest FTA/FGA rate while Boston is 25th in defensive FTA/FGA rate. TAKE OVER 223.5 (-110) for 1.25 units.
