Stephen Nover's NBA Total of the Week
(NBA) Atlanta vs. Golden State,
Total: 208.00 | -110.00 Over
Result: Loss
The Hawks downed the Warriors, 124-116, when the teams met last month. I expect far more defensive intensity in this rematch in a battle of the two teams with the best records.




Atlanta ranks fourth in defense giving up 96.5 points per game. The Warriors rate No. 1 in defensive field goal percentage holdings foes to 42.6 percent.




Kyle Korver and Klay Thompson both are out, too. That's huge from a defensive standpoint.
