Philadelphia 76ers vs Brooklyn Nets Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Joseph King | in NBA Prediction
An Eastern Conference clash in the NBA sees the rejuvenated Brooklyn Net heading to the Wells Fargo Center to take on the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday. Brooklyn have lifted themselves up to 10th in the East with an 8-9 record after an abysmal start to the season and will be looking to get back to .500 with a victory here. They’ll have an excellent chance to do just that as they come into this one as the significant betting favorites due to a myriad of injuries on the Sixers team. Philly sits just above the Nets in ninth-place with an 8-8 record.

Philadelphia 76ers & Brooklyn Nets Squad Analysis
Nets point guard Ben Simmons appears to be regaining some of his confidence and has shown flashes of the three-time all-star quality player from his Philadelphia days. He’s coming off a season high 22 points in the win over the Grizzlies which was preceded by a 15 point, 13 rebound, seven assist outing in the win over Portland. With the mercurial Kyrie Irving back in the team following his suspension and Kevin Durant playing some of the best basketball of his career, the Nets can eventually become serious contenders if they can keep those three playing at a high level. On the other side, the Sixers will be entering this contest extremely shorthanded. They’ll be without Joel Embiid, James Harden, Tyrese Maxey, Tobias Harris and Furkan Korkmaz – a list which includes Philly’s four leading scorers this season.
Philadelphia 76ers - Brooklyn Nets Key Points

Our Philadelphia 76ers vs Brooklyn Nets Prediction
We’re going to back the Brooklyn Nets to win this game and cover the -7.5 point spread. There are simply too many injuries on this Philadelphia squad and the Nets are in a good run of form at the moment. The Sixers have played a bit this season without Embiid, Harden, Maxey on the floor and the results have not been encouraging. The signs point towards this one getting out of hand quickly as the Nets should be able to build up a big lead and coast to victory even as the away team.
