    Houston -1 at philadelphia
    Line seems a little odd. Philadelphia has lost its last four by high double digits, like 27, 20 19, 18. Is it a freebie to the public or trap?

    its a back to back for houston, they dont do well on a back to back so yea but then again, they might score 120 again on them sixers

          -4, -5. People will disagree but that's where I think it should be. I thought Milwaukee -3.5 at Washington was to low though and that covered earlier in the season. I also thought OKC -2 at Chicago was to low and that covered easily as well. But then again, Lakers at Washington was -6.5 which I though was low and Lakers won by 6. Boston-5.5 at Washington, Boston won by 5. Brooklyn -5 at Washington, Brooklyn won by 2. I guess I'm learning if the line is suspect the % win more towards the underdog. Like OKC-2 at Minnesota, Minnesota wins.

              philly in a good spot tonight... 2nd game back from a long trip and off rest. Seems like it's already built into the line though with them being just +1.. tough to take the Sixers they just aren't very talented but tonight is as good as spot as any.

                I like celtics view here. A the end of long road trips you tire out and dont play well period. Jazz and phoenix are experiencing that now. Sixers starting home stand prob get the win here and last game of road trip for hou and at home vs the clips in 3 days prob more important than the sixers

                  also houston is 1-2 as away favourite...I took them against cleveland when the handicap was 5,5..but it was risky...anyway could be a good call, who knows..good luck

                    first game back from a long trip is also often a bad spot for teams - i.e. philli getting blow out by BKN

                      I saw somewhere that someone on the sixers was talking about their b2b situation and their scheduling wasnt exactly fair on this last road trip. After that loss to BKN they headed right out and up to toronto for a b2b. And now the sixers get rest and face hou on their b2b

                        yea no doubt that we see a better Sixers team than we've seen the past 4-5 games, but is it enough to win straight up? I'm not so sure
