LiontipsCleveland vs Atlanta. Predictions and Betting Tips for NBA
Command Analysis
Cleveland lost their key players. Jarrett Allen, Ricky Rubio and Darius Garland didn't play in the previous match. That's why Cavs suffered a defeat to Washington (93:110). It was team's third defeat in four matches. Before that Bickerstaff's men also lost to Boston (101:108) and New Orleans (104:108). In another match Cavaliers smashed Toronto (144:99).
In the upcoming match three key players won't help Cleveland. Cavs will rely on Kevin Love and Evan Mobley, so if they will perform successfully team will have a chance on success.
Trae Young returned to Atlanta's line-up. But so far the Hawks are still unsuccessful. In the previous match they suffered a defeat to Chicago (117:131). Young played 33 minutes in this match. He scored 26 points, gave 11 assists and collected three rebounds.
In the upcoming match a number of players will be unavailable. Hawks will rely on Clint Capela, Cam Reddish and Trae Young. Seems like Nate McMillan will try to edge everything out of that trio.

Tip and bets
Two most recent matches of Atlanta were high-scoring, but we are not expecting this to continue. Cleveland plays defensively. Cavaliers are looking great under the own rim. Hawks are not playing well in matches against opponents like that. In matches against the Knicks and Philadelphia, Hawks failed to score more than 100 points.
Cavaliers are playing in similar style, so we offer to place a bet on total under.
Our prediction - total under 217 points
Cleveland is looking better on defense than Atlanta. Not many teams are capable of breaking the Cavaliers' defense. Hawks are not so successful on offense, so we are not expecting a success from them.
Our second bet is on Cleveland to win the match (Including OT)
