Take the 76ers +2 at Home vs. Boston

On this as well. Philly will come out angry after that OKC debacle. They win this straight up.

Line suggests 76ers to me

But using this reasoning dont Boston also come out angry after losing at home to the Clipjoint?

Yea, don't go with the angry theory. Dig a little deeper

Due theory and and angry theory, not real reliable.

Any game that includes the sixers will be a sweat till the end. Those little Sixers are FAST, and they ball, but most importantly they play up to their opponent. Home dogs on a Friday are usually good bets, it's kind of an awkward point in the season though, I'm too paranoid

fakeandthedrive · 03-11-11, 08:43 AM

Yeah. Phi !!

MarlinsFan2212 · 03-11-11, 09:00 AM

Im on Celtics.

Brodog28 · 03-11-11, 09:04 AM

Yeah I like Philly as well. Good luck

BillyGoat · 03-11-11, 09:28 AM

I lie philly too but 2 pts against boston seems a little low. Good luck

Boston is struggling right now with injuries and trying to adjust to some new faces. They had a tough time against Milwaukee and lost at home to the lowly Clippers and I expect their struggles to continue over the next couple weeks. The 76ers are playing really well right now - they outplayed the Thunder for 47 and a half minutes the other night but couldn't finish the job. Considering how well they always play Boston, I think this is a great spot for Philly. 6 of the last 8 matchups between these two have been determined by 4 points or fewer (4 of the 8 by 2 points or fewer). However, I actually see the 76ers winning this one and it may not even come down to the final minute.

Celtics 89
76ers (+2) 96

boston has won 9 of their last 10 in philly (7 in a row)....i like boston to bounce back off the loss to the clips.

Borat38 · 03-11-11, 10:22 AM

I always bet PHI when they're up against BOS. These teams are evenly matched, despite PHI's lack of a strong center.

TGHMak · 03-11-11, 10:31 AM

I like the Boston ML at -120

Sfritts8 · 03-11-11, 10:35 AM

Celtics have no players healthy. Wafer,West, both O'Neals, Big Baby all hurt, in addition, Rondo has been playing horribly since his BFF Perkins was traded away, they played a close game last time in Philly, take the 76ers.

panik · 03-11-11, 10:43 AM

Ill take the Celtics every after loss.

himeshforex · 03-11-11, 10:44 AM

boston folks , boston

PhilliesPhan · 03-11-11, 10:48 AM

Id take 6ers 1H ... they play well against solid teams and seem to give up leads

... ex. Dallas, OKC ... They are fast, young, and deep .. i am leaning over, 6ers 1H for this game.

Snowball · 03-11-11, 11:36 AM

thank for the low line and pound Celtics.

Wiscsportsfan92 · 03-11-11, 12:01 PM

Got the Celts in this one

Boston is goin down tonight snowball

omalley21 · 03-11-11, 12:41 PM

Celtic fan here. I think the 76ers are the play. Celtics are not the same team right now as most people seem to think. Lots of resting starters, trying to find chemistry with second team. Rondo sucking. I think the 6ers win.

lyon804 · 03-11-11, 01:11 PM

Twiz, I like the play, BUT I will not make it because Boston simply knows how to WIN no matter the circumstance.

If I had to bet the game i would take Philly.

R23k · 03-11-11, 01:19 PM

I am a Bulls fan so I want the Celts to lose, but no was they will lose 2 in a row; plus after the last loss at home they know how important this game is with bulls on their heels

ParlayJunkie · 03-11-11, 01:43 PM

Boston for me. That big three is still the big 3. Small play. Philly will play them tight but I can't take the 6ers

I can't blame you but contrary to most past matchups, i think the sixers will be up by just a little too much for boston to win late. If the game came down to the final minute you'd be crazy to go against boston though particularly against philly.

Fasttrack · 03-11-11, 03:15 PM

With you on Philly tonight. I think they take this one.

t-wizzle · 03-11-11, 06:29 PM

I may make this is a big play. The Sixers are playing a fast-paced game but the reason they are winning is their DEFENSE.

demens · 03-11-11, 07:11 PM

I think Boston has the edge in this game. Philly usually destroys teams on the fast break and Boston has the best fast break D in the league iirc.

Bswitz32 · 03-11-11, 07:24 PM

With you on the SIXERS..the team is hot. Also going BULLS

BOL tonight

Ratzz · 03-11-11, 07:26 PM

Amen to that,on Philly as well,BOL.

ugabooga · 03-11-11, 08:35 PM

Celtics just holding on at the moment. Anyone watching? Do 76ers look like running away with the game? Any observations would be appreciated.

No coincidences · 03-11-11, 08:41 PM

Here comes the typical Philly home meltdown.
