We made a pick against the spread for every game, but now it’s time to look at the Sixers vs Celtics.
Why the Sixers will win
Joel Embiid is unstoppable. Embiid does very well against the Celtics and his knees may be a concern, but not in the playoffs. If he has a big series, the Celtics will lose. The Sixers have a serious coaching advantage. Doc Rivers may be on the hot seat and questioned by many, but he can coach.
Why the Celtics will win
The Celtics have the best duo in the NBA in Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown. On any given night, these two can carry the team to victory. This Boston team is deep and has several players coming off the bench that would start on any other team. This is going to be a series to remember.
