Nets at 76ers picks and predictionsPrediction
76ers 115, Nets 103
PASS.
There’s no great wager here. The 76ers (-425) should win at home, but are too expensive to consider.
BET 76ERS -9.5 (-110).
The 76ers are 1-0 ATS as a favorite of 9 points or greater. They are also the third-best covering team in the NBA and have covered in 3 of their previous 5 home games.
The Nets’ offense has been too inconsistent to back here. They have scored 96 points or fewer in 2 straight games. Brooklyn is just 1-2 ATS across its last 3 away games. It has a 12-point home loss and a 24-point home loss to Philadelphia on the season already.
Expect the home side to win with ease and take 76ERS -9.5 (-110).
BET UNDER 218.5 (-110).
Both teams are trending tpward the Under. The Nets have gone Under in 3 straight games and in 12 of their previous 14 contests. The 76ers are 2-6 O/U in their last 8 games. They have allowed 107 points or fewer in 5 of those. To add to that, these sides rank 19th (76ers) and 27th (Nets) in pace, so expect a low-tempo game and fewer scoring chances.
Back UNDER 218.5 (-110).
