Happy Tip off! NBA returns Tonight with the Philadelphia 76ers traveling to Boston to take on Kyrie and the Celtics. The sixers will have revenge on their mind as Boston is responsible for eliminating them last Post season 4-1; They also won 3 of the 4 regular season matchups. This game has a lot different look then the last time these two teams met. Kyrie and Gordon Hayward will be playing as Boston comes in about as healthy as you can expect, meanwhile the Sixers are already dealing with a few minor day to day injuries with Ben Simmons, Dario Saric, and Mike Muscala. Wilson Chandler is ruled out of tonight’s game. Another lineup change in Philly is Fultz starting in place of Reddick. Ersan Ilyasova & Marco Belinelli both left in free agency add shooting, to the multiple question Philly brings offensively this season. You know what you get with a Sixers defense allowing the least amount of points in the paint last season. Both these teams are solid defensively, with both teams having much different lineups then the last time they met and it being the first game of the year look for this one to go under 209. In this day in age taking a NBA under seems crazy especially since the last 3 times these teams met in Boston it’s gone over. But I think we see a defensive struggle between two teams trying to figure out exactly what they have.
Free Play of the day: Boston/Philly under 209
