The Sixers have been utterly dominant as the postseason nears, playing some of the best basketball we've seen from Embiid & Co. Even with the Bulls playing much better lately, Philly should be too much for them to handle bballgodsblog explains.
Both these teams are riding a strong series of Unders. The Under has cashed in 10 of the Bulls' last 14 road games, as well as 18 of their last 26 overall. The Under has also cashed in four of the 76ers' last five games at home. Those trends have led to a modest total of 224.5 and I struggled with whether to make the Over my best bet as a result.
Because while the Unders have been cashing, these teams are set up for a shootout on Monday. The 76ers' offensive rating over their last two weeks is a staggering 131.5. For comparison's sake, the Kings' league-leading offense this season is 119.7. Seven games is not a season, but it’s also not nothing. As I discussed in the best bet section, I believe both that the Bulls' defense is not quite as good as their rating and that Philadelphia is well disposed to take advantage of them through Embiid in the post and at the nail.
The Bulls have also managed to hit an offensive level over the last two weeks that they haven’t sniffed since early last season, playing at the level of the third-best offense in that span. The Bulls' offense doesn’t rely on getting all the way to the rim as much as some teams, and while I don’t believe they’ll score enough to cover, I do think they’ll contribute to this total going Over.The 76ers are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record..
