Miami Heat vs Atlanta Hawks Match Preview, Prediction, Betting Spreads and Odds - April 24th, 2022 | NBA Playoffs 2022
The Atlanta Hawks are gearing up to host the Miami Heat in Game 4 at home. The Heat lead the series 2-1.
For all the highs of last season, the Hawks have had a disappointing campaign for much of the regular season. They languished below the play-in spost but managed a solid end to the campaign to finish as the eighth seed in the East. The Hawks won seven of their last 10 games coming into the postseason and will look to upset the odds by leveling the series.
Meanwhile, the Heat have been arguably the most consistent team in the East. They ended the regular season atop the Eastern Conference summit with a two-game buffer over second seed Boston Celtics. Miami will rely on the likes of Tyler Herro and Bam Adebayo, who have been incredible this season.

Atlanta Hawks Preview
Describing the season to date for the Hawks as disappointing would be an understatement. After reaching the Eastern Conference finals last season by beating a powerhouse like Philadelphia 76ers, the Hawks were supposed to kick on from there.
However, that hasn't happened, as the Hawks have looked a shadow of their former selves, languishing near the bottom of the Eastern Conference standings. Nevertheless, they have made the postseason and will look to make a deep run like they did last year.
Atlanta Hawks Predicted Lineup
G - Trae Young; G - Kevin Huerter; F - De'Andre Hunter; F - Danilo Gallinari; C - Onyeka Okongwu.
