The Denver Nuggets started the season incredibly well, winning 9 of their first 10 games, before dropping the last 4 in a row - including 3 at home.
They need tonight's win to not make it 4 consecutive home losses. The Nuggets Center Nikola Jokic is uncertain with a hand injury, although he will likely play, while PG Isaiah Thomas is definitely out until mid December.
The Nuggets are a good defensive team, allowing only 103ppg on the season, but that defense didn't really show up against the Rockets (lost 109-99), against the Bucks (lost 121-114), or even against the lowly Brooklyn Nets (lost 112-110).
The Hawks look like a lottery team, but they do have some young capable talent, especially rookie Trae Young who is averaging 17.5ppg and 8 assists per game so far this season.
Atlanta have been quite impressive I would say against some strong opposition, and while it may not show in their current record of 3-11, they can cause serious problems to anyone.
The Hawks matched GSW through most of their encounter a few days ago, losing by only 7 points in Oakland. They lost by 1 point in LA against LeBron's Lakers. Their heaviest loss in their last 6 games came at home against Detroit where they lost by 15 points.
So I am expecting the Hawks to keep this up, and stay close to the Nuggets as well.
Some relevant stats:
Nuggets are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games overall.
Hawks are 5-1-1 ATS in their last 7 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.
Taking the Hawks to not lose by more than 14 points, with a little insurance.
