Cleveland(59-16) is just one win away from posting back-to-back 60-win seasons and barring a collapse will finish with the NBA’s best regular season record for the 2nd straight season. The Cavaliers look to be a safe bet to win their 60th game tonight, as they’ve beaten the Hawks the last 8 meetings and own the league’s top home record at 33-4, while the Hawks are two games under .500 at 17-19 on the road. Atlanta(48-26) is coming off of an impressive 109-92 home win versus the LA Lakers on Wednesday and own a 1 game lead for the 3rd seed in the Eastern Conference Playoffs. The 3rd seed is important to Atlanta’s playoff hopes, as it would allow the Hawks to avoid playing Cleveland in the 2nd round. This will be Atlanta’s first game playing Antwan Jamison in a Cavaliers uniform, who was a tough matchup for the Hawks when he was with Washington. Jamison averaged 23.2 points and 12.7 rebounds in his last nine matchups against Atlanta while with the Wizards. Cleveland owns a 2-0 season series edge this season thus far, as they won 95-84 in Atlanta on December 29 and then got a season-high 48 points from Lebron James to storm back from 17 points down to win 106-101 a night later.
