Miami Heat

The Brooklyn Nets entered the game after beating the Memphis Grizzlies 127-115. It was their second win in a row because of how efficient they were on offense. They shot 60.2 percent against the Grizzlies, as they have to stay hot in this game if they want to take on the Sixers on the road.

The Philadelphia 76ers entered this game after a 112-109 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. They allowed Minnesota to shoot 47.1 percent from the field because they had to get better on the defensive end of the floor if they were to get back into the winning streak.

The Brooklyn Nets will win this game, and The Philadelphia 76ers continued to make every effort to score on the offensive end of the court, as I saw enough stops for the Nets to make up for that gap. The 76ers will also be without Harden, Embiid, and Maxey because they don’t have enough talent to compensate for this game’s opening. Brooklyn also ranks 12th in points allowed per game, holding opponents to the bottom four in field goal percentage.

They’ll keep getting stops and earn enough points to cover the spread the other way. The success of the Nets’ offense on the court also in this game. The 76ers are dealing with many injuries, and they’re only 28th in points per game. They will continue to struggle in this game, and the Nets will be able to keep this game close. The 76ers will only play well with their star, as the Sixers will continue to slide in the wrong direction.
