Atlanta Hawks vs Cleveland Cavaliers Prediction: Many Problems for the Hawks

Prediction for the NBA  Atlanta Hawks vs Cleveland Cavaliers match will take place on February 25th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The Hawks are not stable this season, so in the last two matches before the break in the championship, Nate McMillan's team suffered defeats. And if the loss to New York (101:122), a powerful opponent, can still be explained, then the failure in the meeting with Charlotte (138:144), one of the main outsiders of the season, we cannot understand. Atlanta conceded 144 points from one of the weakest attacks of the championship.

Overall, in the last 13 matches, Atlanta has only five wins. The team is in the play-in zone of the Eastern Conference, in eighth place, but so far, of course, it has not guaranteed anything to themselves.

The Cavaliers, in the match with Denver, the leader of the Western Conference, once again showed why they have the best defense this season. However, they could not sufficiently prove themselves on offense and lost – 109:115. Only the main players should be noted in the Cleveland lineup. Darius Garland scored 22 points, Donovan Mitchell – 22, Evan Mobley – 31, and Jarrett Allen – 14 + 13 rebounds. But the rest did not score more than six points. In general, the main problem of Cleveland this season is the lack of effectiveness of the bench.

Cleveland is one of the strongest teams this season, while Atlanta is a typical mediocre team. Nate McMillan's team is seriously unstable in the championship, loses even to outsiders, and can hardly be considered a favorite in a confrontation. Despite the back-to-back, the Cavaliers will undoubtedly cause the Hawks many problems due to the quality of their defense. They will win the upcoming meeting.
