There’s still some meat on the bone here and the loss of Robert Williams is a big one. Boston is an incredibly strong defensive unit but the Sixers are primed to come out of the gate hot and have the continuity that Boston doesn’t have given their off-season turmoil

#NbaTalkWithJay on YouTube. Buckets Pod official pick. 76ers 7-1 ATS last 8 games vs the Celtics. No Robert Williams means Philly has huge advantage down low and rebounding.

Over 215-110

Sprinkle here because I make this closer to -110. I waited too long after steam, but I was worried about injuries, because, Sixers.

J.Tatum o7.5 Rebs+110

1.1u

BetMGM. Averaged 8 rebs per game last season, and hit this in 11/19 games without RobWil. Plus, this is a great matchup in general, as Horford will be glued to Embiid. 12, 11, 9, 16 against PHI last season.

Over 214.5-110

Steamed to 216 from open at 213.5, there's not a number I don't like it at but over 216 and you're in danger territory for chasing steam. I have this at 225 based on last year's numbers with comparable rosters, Sixers' offense has been liquid fire in preseason and home teams tend to go over their team total at a 55% rate in home openers. So assuming I like Sixers to account for their side, it's an over.

J.Harden Yes Double-Double+175

41.4% ast rate w/ Philly last season, nearly a 2% increase from his time with BKN last year. The emergence of Tyrese Maxey makes play creating easier given his spot-up shooting abilities and PHI should exploit PnR w/o Robert Williams on D

M.Smart u23.5 Pts+Rebs+Ast-120

1.2u

DraftKings. Smart only averaged 21.8 PRA last season, with 40% of his points coming from 3s. PHI allowed the third lowest 3P FG% last season, and the fewest PRA to PGs. Plus, with Brogdon and a full season of Derrick White (plus Peyton Pritchard), Smart is likely to lose some ball handling responsibilities/usage. This matchup projects to be slow, and Smart said he tweaked his groin in the last preseason game.

J.Harden o8.5 Ast+110

8.5 on DK is fine as well. https://www.actionnetwork.com/nba/nba-betting-odds-expert-picks-predictions-76ers-vs-celtics-lakers-vs-warriors-best-bets-tuesday-october-18

Are we serious, Draftkings? This is 9.5 on pointsbet and should probably be at least 9.5 if not 10.5.
