The Wizards vs. Hawks Game 1 betting line for the 2015 NBA Playoffs had Atlanta as a -5 home favorite.
Atlanta has excelled both Straight Up and Against The Spread up to this point with an impressive ATS record of 52-34-2 compared to the Wizards 37-46-3.
While Atlanta has won three of the last four games in this series, Washington has covered five of the last seven meetings using the current number of 5.
ESPN.com notes that Atlanta bench depth is a major reason the Hawks went 60-22 during the regular season and we could see more of that in this series. When the big men need a rest, Pero Antic and Mike Scott are two more inside-outside threats.
