Spurs at 76ers picks and predictions
Prediction
76ers 115, Spurs 108
Moneyline
PASS.
The 76ers should come out on top, but at these odds, they aren’t worth a play to win outright. The Spurs haven’t performed well as a road underdog, so one should avoid expecting an upset as well.
Against the spread
BET 76ERS (-115).
The Spurs have failed to cover 3 straight games as an underdog and are tied for the third-worst ATS record in the NBA when an away underdog at 2-5. San Antonio’s defense has collapsed in its last 7 games, allowing at least 116 points in 5 of those.
The 76ers are 6-3 ATS in their last 9 games and are 3-2 ATS as a favorite in those. Philadelphia has covered the spread after each of its last 3 defeats. With those trends in mind, back 76ERS (-115).
Over/Under
BET OVER 217.5 (-115).
The Spurs have gone Over in 5 of their last 7 games, driving by efficient offense. They have tallied at least 113 points in 6 of those games and have topped 120 in 3 of them. San Antonio has given up at least 126 points 3 times in the last 7 games as well.
Philadelphia is 2-1-1 O/U in its last 4 games. It hasn’t had quite as fast-paced games, but it has scored at least 107 points in 4 of its last 5 contests. Play OVER 217.5 (-115).
