Philadelphia

The last game of the 76ers is the best for the team this season regarding offensive play. Nick Nurse's team made almost 150 at home against Washington and was stronger - 146:128. Philadelphia made almost 40% of three-pointers - 12 and 31, and thanks to Embiid dominating in the three-point zone, making 36 free throws to only 20 for the opponent. He was also the 76ers' leading rebounder, adding 11 rebounds to his 48 points. Tyrese Maxey had 22 points and 11 assists, proving that the decision to start him over James Harden was the right one.

Washington is currently not the opponent to judge the strength of the team. But even before that, Philadelphia only lost to Milwaukee by 1 point and won four games in a row.

Boston

The Celtics came to Minneapolis with a 5-0 record and were the only team to start the season undefeated. Boston was on the verge of another success, answering the Timberwolves' top defense with their own. However, Joe Mazulla's team could not close the game in regulation, and their opponents showed more zeal in overtime. 104-109 (101-101) - Boston's first loss.

Separately in the Celtics lineup after the meeting with Minnesota, it is worth noting Jayson Tatum - 32 points. Jaylen Brown scored 26 points but finished the game with a utility rating of -16, and Jrue Holiday had an even worse -19.

Expert Betting Tips

Boston is undoubtedly one of the favorites to win the championship. They lost to Minnesota, but only in overtime, even though Miami and Denver, two of last season's best teams, lost in Minneapolis earlier in the season. But Philadelphia's start to the championship confirms that they, too, should be a contender. Nick Nurse is doing a great job, and last season's most valuable player, Joel Embiid, is confirming his level. Philadelphia plays up-tempo basketball, averaging more than 120 points per game. Boston ranks second in offensive efficiency with an average of 123.5 points per game.
