OC Dooley:“2 UNIT” NBA INTANGIBLE TOTAL (Cavaliers at Hawks OVER 196 in a 7:35 eastern tipoff): This total involves a highly unusual handicapping situation as Atlanta’s Kyle Korver is on the verge of snapping an NBA record that has held up for EIGHTEEN years. With one more basket from behind the arc tonight Korver will snap a record originally set by Dana Barros by nailing a “three point” shot in an incredible NINETY consecutive games. The last eight times he has faced a weak Cleveland defense Korver has nailed 21-of-40 long range attempts from behind the arc. Considering that so far this campaign the Cavaliers defense has given up a whopping average of 110 points per game on the ROAD, odds are that Korver will have plenty of shooting opportunities. Atlanta as a team has scored 100+ points in three consecutive games which is big news since the team was held “below” the century mark in the prior 7 contests. Atlanta is 3-0 OVER the total in the past three games after going 7-1 “below” the number in the prior eight contests. In the past three years after a game where the team made at least 12 different three-pointers from behind the arc Atlanta has gone 14-4 OVER the total long term. The star shooter for Cleveland is Kyrie Irving and the last three times versus Atlanta he has gone off for an average of 30 points per pop
