A big matchup in the East takes place tonight, with the Philadelphia 76ers and the New York Knicks clashing at Madison Square Garden.
Before betting on the 76ers vs. Knicks
The Sixers have four wins in the past five games, and this is their second consecutive road game. We’ve seen them successful in San Antonio, where they beat the Spurs 137-125, showing impressive offensive productivity.
Joel Embiid had 33 points and ten boards in only 28 minutes of play. Tyrese Maxey had 25 buckets off the bench, and it seems that he could have a bigger impact on the game as the leader of the second unit, that is a non-starter. James Harden had a slow night with 16 buckets, eight assists, and four boards.
The clash against the Sixers is the fourth in a row for the Knicks at Madison. So far, things could have been better for Thibodeau and the boys during this stretch, with the Sixers having one victory and two defeats so far.
Both losses came during overtime, and the more recent was against the Clippers, 134-128. It appears that the Knicks’ defense has severely deteriorated lately, with them allowing 120+ frequently. Jalen Brunson had a very good night, with 41 points and seven assists, while Julius Randle added 28 points and 11 boards.
