\n*Stats do not include Indiana\u2019s Friday match up with the Spurs<\/em><\/p>\n

The Atlanta Hawks are quietly gaining momentum on NBA odds, while the Indiana Pacers are loudly stumbling their way through them. The teams will meet in Atlanta on Saturday night.<\/p>\n

Atlanta (24-14, 18-20 ATS) has quietly put together a very nice run. The Hawks are 7-2 in their past nine games, including a 7-2 record against the spread. Atlanta has won its past three games both straight up and against the spread after crushing the Jazz 110-87 in Utah on Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

The offense has been excellent during the winning streak, scoring 107, 108 and 110 points. Joe Johnson has practically been unstoppable; he\u2019s averaging 18.4 points per game on the year but, in his last three outings, he\u2019s averaging 28.6 per contest. Johnson was a menace from the three-point line against Utah, hitting five of his seven attempts.<\/p>\n

The Hawks are also getting much-improved play from Jamal Crawford, who struggled early in the season. That feels like a distant memory now, as Crawford has scored at least 24 points in four straight games, averaging 26.7 per game over that span.<\/p>\n

While the offense is rolling, the defense shouldn\u2019t be overlooked. Atlanta has allowed more than 100 points just once during its past nine 11 games, a 103-94 loss at Oklahoma City.<\/p>\n

Indiana (14-18, 14-16-2 ATS) had just three wins in its past 11 games heading into Friday\u2019s battle with the Spurs. The Pacers were dreadful against the spread in that span, going 2-8-1 ATS. Both wins have come in their past two games, though, including a 98-92 loss in New York on Sunday. \"Online<\/p>\n

If there\u2019s been a bright spot lately, it is Darren Collison. The guard has been very impressive over his last two games, averaging 20 points on 54 percent shooting. He also averaged 6.0 assists and 4.5 rebounds in those contests.<\/p>\n

Keeping Collison rolling might be a way to finally wake up the offense. Indiana has struggled to score points, and the Pacers haven\u2019t topped the century mark in their last seven games\u2014and just once in their last 11. It\u2019s not wonder they\u2019ve been awful against the spread during the same stretch. Not surprisingly, their games have gone under the total in nine of their past 11, including seven straight.<\/p>\n

With Johnson, Crawford and company rolling, it\u2019s just impossible to believe the Pacers can keep up with Atlanta right now; they simply don\u2019t have the offense to hang around for more than a few quarters. Take the Hawks.<\/p>\n

Trends<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

Indiana is 0-5 SU in its last 5 games when playing on the road against Atlanta
\nIndiana is 1-6 ATS in its last 7 games when playing on the road against Atlanta
\nAtlanta is 6-13 ATS in its last 19 games at home
\nThe total has gone OVER in 4 of Atlanta’s last 5 games<\/p>\n
