Preview

Miami Heat will be meeting Atlanta Hawks on Tuesday in Miami, This will be the second game in the first round for this matchup after the heat have won the first game 115-91 in Miami too. Atlanta will enter this game trying to level the score up and no give the chance to Miami to get an early 2-0 lead but it will be difficult if they played like the last game.

Atlanta Hawks didn't play well at all in the first game vs the Heat, Trae Young had only 8 points on 1/12 (8%) shooting from the field. Danilo Gallinari with 17 points and De'Andre Hunter with 14 points were the best players for Atlanta in this game. The Hawks had a poor 48% shooting from the field and even worse 27% from the 3 Pointers so they have to shoot better if they want to have a chance Vs the Heat here. Capela is still out and Bogdanovic is probable for this game.

Miami Heat played a great game on Sunday beating the Hawks by 24 points as the game was never close from the start to finish. Duncan Robinson was the highest scoring player in the game with 7/8 threes and 27 points. Jimmy Butler played a great game too with 21 points on 60% shooting from the field. Miami shot 52% from the field and 47% from the 3 Pointers in this game which led to them blowing out the Hawks in that first game.

Prediction

First playoffs game between the Hawks and Heat didn't go well for Atlanta as Trae Young was clearly out of form with only 8 points on 8% shooting. Duncan Robinson was impressive in that game with 8/9 from the 3 Pointers and 27 points as the game's top scorer, I like Trae Young and Atlanta Hawks to play better in this game and keep it closer than the last time so give me the Hawks here plus the points.

Pick: Atlanta Hawks +7 (-110)
