Atlanta Hawks - Dallas Mavericks: betting tip (cf 1.73) and bets on the NBA match

Current form  

On March 8, Atlanta delighted its fans on the floor of the State Farm Arena by beating Philadelphia with a score of 125:116. The victory turned out to be characteristic — at first the hosts allowed the opponent to accelerate and conceded the opening quarter at 28:38, but then the game turned around. In the second quarter, the Atlanta Hawks added speed and toughness, gradually leveling the situation. This segment was won by 38:35, and after a long break, the hosts finally took control of the match. The third quarter is 31:21, and that's where it became clear: The Hawks won't let the game go today.

The team acted confidently and in a diverse manner. Good perimeter defense, quick transitions from defense to attack, aggressive passes under the ring — all this allowed 55% of shots from the game and 41% of long-range attempts. The main character of the evening was Jaylen Johnson. His stats — 35 points, 10 rebounds and 7 assists —looked like the performance of a player who was in complete control of what was happening on the court. The victory allowed the Hawks to improve the balance to 33:31 and consolidate their position in ninth place in the Eastern Conference.

Dallas has a much less rosy picture now. On March 9, the team traveled to Toronto and suffered a very painful 92-122 defeat against the Raptors. The beginning of the meeting still left hope for a fight. The first quarter ended with a score of 29:36, and it seemed that the Dallas Mavericks were able to stay close. But then the attack of the guests seemed to be unplugged. The Mavericks scored just 15 points in the second quarter and 22 in the third. The Raptors actively pressed in defense, blocked the transmission lines and forced the opponent to throw through his hands. The result is 19 losses and serious problems with implementation. The shooting statistics only confirm the picture: 40% of the hits from the game and only 17% from beyond the arc are five accurate shots out of thirty attempts.

Daniel Gafford stood out against this background. The center had an almost perfect match in attack — 10 shots out of 10, 21 points and 11 rebounds. Rookie Cooper Flagg also performed well with 17 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists. The defeat was the seventh in a row for the Mavericks. The team's balance is 21:43, and this is only 12th place in the Western Conference.
