The Boston Celtics are in great form, as the team play has reached a new level. Ime Udoka’s side travels to Pennsylvania for another win, but there is no doubt that the visitors will face challenges.
The Philadelphia 76ers are looking forward to the debut of their rookie James Harden, who will try to help the club fight for the championship. The Sixers are doing well at home, so there is a good chance that Doc Rivers’ men will get the result they want.
Both sides have a defensive style of play. The Sixers will try to put the Celtics in their place, although the visitors have a lot to show for it. We assume there will be plenty of competition on the court, which means we are betting on the total less.
