As can be seen, round 1 of the NBA playoffs tips off between the second and seventh-place teams as the Boston Celtics host the first two games versus the Atlanta Hawks.
ATS
At this time, the Hawks are 37-45-1 overall against the spread this season. Also, they are 19-23 ATS as the away team. Additionally, the Celtics are 45-36-1 against the spread this season. Also, they are 24-17 ATS as the home team
Season Series
The Celtics swept the regular season series with a trio of wins on November 16th (126-101), March 11th (134-125), and April 9th (120-114).
Last season the clubs played four times splitting the series with two wins each. All-time the Celtics have the winning advantage having defeated the Hawks on 242 of the 389 occasions the teams have played.
The teams have a long history of meeting in the postseason facing each other in 12 series (including when the Hawks were in St. Louis). Boston holds the edge here too winning 10 of the 12 series.
Atlanta Hawks
The Hawks are 11-11 with Quin Snyder at the helm which isn’t dramatically different from how they played under Nate McMillan (29-30). They’ve been a middling team all season with their longest win streak being five games in a row.
Yet, they do look different under Snyder and that was most evident in the play-in match against the Heat. Atlanta seemed to channel the Heat identity playing with more physicality and their defensive effort was arguably the best they played all season.
Stats
Atlanta ranks third in scoring, averaging 118.4 points per game while they shoot 48.3%, from the field and 35.2% from the perimeter ranking ninth and 21st respectively.
On defense, opponents score 118.1 points ranking 26th while foes register 48.6% field goal percentage and 35.6% perimeter percentage ranking 25th and 10th respectively.
Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- No injuries
Boston Celtics
The Celtics arrive to this series boasting the second-best record in the association and are well rested. Assuming the favorites all advance, the Bean Town crew will need to go through the 76ers (3rd) and Bucks (1st) who along with Boston had the top three records.
As for this series, the big question is the status of Jaylen Brown who suffered a laceration while gardening requiring stitches. Brown practiced with the team and blocked a shot with the hand in question so presumably, he’ll be good to go.
Stats
On the positive side, Boston claims the fourth-best point production averaging 117.9 points per game. In terms of efficiency, they shoot 47.5% from the field and 37.6% from the perimeter ranking 15th and sixth respectively.
Presently, opponents average 111.4 points per game which rank fifth. Celtics opponents are limited to 46.3% from the field and 34.5% from the perimeter ranking fifth and fourth respectively.
Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Danilo Gallinari, SF (OUT indefinitely — ACL)
- Jaylen Brown SF (probable—hand)
- Marcus Smart PG (probable—neck)
