Philadelphia 76ers vs Boston Celtics Odds
Philadelphia 76ers vs Boston Celtics Preview
I think the bookies are being pretty generous with the current 5.5 line on offer.
The Celtics have had three days off to prepare for their first-round matchup with the Sixers, a team they’ve typically held the wood over during the playoffs in recent years.
Brad Stevens says Kemba Walker is fit and firing, while Gordon Heyward should also be back to full health after missing last Thursday’s game against the Wizards.
Bubble life has been pretty kindto Boston, while the Sixers have been up and down like a yoyo.
Philly won big over the Rockets on Saturday, but with Joel Embiid less than 100 per cent and Ben Simmons missing from the side, you have to like the Celtics in this spot.
Boston are also 6-4 against the spread in their last 10 games against Philly, so I like them to kick off this series with a comfortable win.
Philadelphia 76ers vs Boston Celtics Tip
We're tipping Boston Celtics to win at $1.35 odds.
