    76ers Should Cover tonight
    I knew they'd come out flat yesterday and that's why i made a pretty big play on the kings and also the moneyline. Philly figured since they already beat Sacramento by over 20 a couple weeks ago that it'd be an easy win and it bit them in the ass. They were caught looking ahead to tonight's game in Chicago and I expect them to rebound nicely. The Bulls have proven to be one of the best teams in the league and certainly one of the best home teams but I think this game will be close. I expect it to be more of a defensive battle and I really wouldn't be surprised if the Sixers stole this one. Jrue Holiday is an excellent on the ball defender and will make things tough for Rose.

    Chicago beat Philly by 45 back in December but the Sixers got some payback with a win in January so the revenge factor isn't so big here but that doesn't mean the 76ers have forgotten that dismantling. I'm taking the points here, should be a good game.

    76ers +10.5 (3x)

      Smart analysis, I'm actually convinced to take the spread as well even though it's always a big risk betting against the Bulls.

            I'm from the philly area as well... i heard about that too. They definitely didn't take the game seriously and to be honest i'm glad they lost. They needed a reality check.

              Philly should and most likely will cover. I got +11 and a little on the ML.

                Line is up to 11 in a lot of spots now. This line is way too high.

                  Not a bad call on my part if i may say so myself. I also took the ML (here is the play for those who don't believe me http://forum.sbrforum.com/nba-basket...-wizz-p11.html). Like I said, this line was way too high.

                        Thanks fellas.

                        Btw, Rose got his 31 but he also had 10 turnovers.

                          awful game from everyone tonight. A lot of those turnovers weren't even Roses fault. Nobody bothered to show up on offense today except D.Rose

                          but not to take anything away from the 76ers because they played great. Good defense, unable to miss with their jumpers, Spencer F'in Hawes going off...just a perfect storm of suck if you're a Bulls fan and a perfect storm of win if you're a sixers fan

                              Yea, Philly came out playing hard from the jump though. They outworked them and outplayed them.

                                You meant the sixers should cover the -11 right?

                                  yes they did, offensively and defensively, that was very impressive.

                                  you could see that they were just confident in their jumpers tonight. Bulls players werent confident at all in their shooting, everything was just flat and short...it looked like Bulls were the team coming off a B2B instead of the Sixers.

                                            Haha, nah. Learned a lot from Lakerboy though but this was more of just a gut pick. The line movement indicated that the Bulls were the play actually.
