This once again is another line that does not make sense to me. Just like the Magic and Hawks game, the points differential doesn't make sense. Hawks are -1.8, Raptors are +8.9. Raptors thumped the Hawks not long ago by 44 points yet they are only laying -7.5. The other game vs Bucks, who had a differential of +1.5 were given the same line pretty much and Raptors won that game by 22 points. So we are the Hawks getting the same line the Bucks did even though their differential has a -3 swing on the Bucks?
The Hawks in the last meeting were coming off a home game which they lost and zero rest when the faced the Raptors. Not too mention, they completed a 5 game road trip across the Western Conference and that Raptors game was their 7th in 11 days which added travel which is just a crazy schedule. They come into today's game on plenty of rest after that Magic debacle and I think they can keep it within the number tonight.

Yes because the raptors won by 44 last time they should be favored by atleast 30... cmon dude your reasoning makes no sense.
Clearly you didn't read my reason in correctly. I didn't say the line should be -30 because of the 44 point beat down last time. My reasoning was that the Bucks who had a positive differential had the same line that the Hawks did who have a negative differential which didn't make any sense at all..
