Can someone explain this low line to me? Nets are not a very good team, and the hawks lost there first game to Boston a few nights ago, which they almost won. The public is at about 90% on the Hawks tonight at -3.5, i absolutley love this line.....but seems extremely fishy to me, any idea?

Don't know how Atlanta will respond after losing? And being on the road? I don't know, I feel that same way as you do

Thought the game seemed like a trap to....

Still took the Hawks -4 against Vince Carter tonight though.

Goodluck.

Theres no reason in my opnion that the nets remotely even have a chance here, yes the hawks lost there first game by 1 point to the great celtics team, but now there playing a pretty bad Nets team.......still taking the hawks, even if it is a trap....GL

Simple:

Devon Harris is back for NJ...

That is the reason why the line is where it is at...

As far as the outcome of the game goes, well, who knows, but I know I will not put money on a game where the public is on a team to the tune of about 90%, so good luck if you bet ATL...

sometimes vegas bites it...I feel this is one of those instances...its not off by that much but I guess they are just putting it out at 3.5 because they are curious is to how ATL will respond to a emotional loss...I personally had it set around 6.5-7...can't lay much more than that on the road though

Definately a FISHY line...Considering they play AGAIN tommorow and its set at Hawks -9....Total basically the same 191.5...

Still going with Hawks, Good Luck

Nets with Devin Harris are a pretty good team. Add no josh smith and a home game for jersey and the line makes sense.
