Ok, here's the run down: the team of lovin' brothers is winnin' some games of late, and they are kinda making their name know, albeit, against the lesser of the NBA midlings and last placers even. Sorry for that division, I might add.
But still. Here is the Deal. Philly will play at home against a strong team from the interior bowels of Middle America, this team called the "Thunder." They can be thunderous, that's for sure. But I don't give these young punks much repesct yet. They gonna have to go to the City of Brotherly Love and try to win as a 1 pt. dog, which probably feels okay for them. Better than being a three point dog. But they got cojones cabrones, esto es seguro.
BUT! Okl City is ATS 5-16 away, and yet Philly is a SOLID 20-11 at home. That's nice. Both teams are also vying for standings in their respective conferences. Philly coming off a back-to-back game in Indy where they killed them by double digits. Can't imagine it was ever a real struggle for them.
Okl City coming from a bad beat at Memphis on Monday. Gonna have to roll into the town of Rocky Balboa and the Liberty Bell, and the once capital of the U.S.A. ALready got that going against them. Now they gotta play a strong home team that is pumped up and ready to fight!
Games wise: Andre Iguodala has recently had back-to-back double/doubles for Philly. And team is shooting for the eight victory in nine games in front of the home crowd! Yeah, a lot on the line for their standings and same goes for Okl City. Okl City has had three losses, three wins, followed by a recent loss to Memphis at home on Monday. Both had b2b games before that one.
All said, I believed in the Sixers tonight in Indy and they whooped 'em. Now they go home and show what they are made of. And only have to cover one point at home. Not rollin with the public backed dogs in this one.
Gonna roll with Philly to kill it at home. One for the city, you know.
Philly -1, that is the play. For me, that is. Good luck cabrones!
