Prediction

We are in for a treat tonight, to watch and to bet on in this matchup of two of the best teams in the NBA.

The Celtics are sitting atop the East, where they have been for most of the season but are only 1 game ahead of the red-hot Bucks and 3 games ahead of Embiid and the Sixers.

As we head into the back third of the NBA season, the Celtics will want to continue to stack wins and hold onto that #1 seed.

They are 8-2 in their last 10 games and will look to grab their 3rd straight tonight on the road against the surging Sixers.

The Sixers have won 5 straight and 7 of their last 10, looking to keep pace with the Celtics and the 2nd place Bucks.

Joel Embiid and James Harden (more on the Beard in a minute so keep reading) will have to be in top form tonight to bury the Celtics at home, and that has been a tough nut to crack.

Even though the Sixers are the 2nd best team in the NBA ATS, I love the Celtics to get a big win tonight.

The Celtics have won both matchups so far this season and I think they make it 3-0 against the Sixers tonight!

Player Prop of the Game

James Harden o21.5 Points (-114) BetOnline

There are a lot of props in this game that are nice value, but my favorite is Harden to have a big scoring night.

He cleared his points line against the Celtics both matchups this season, one of them being a 35 point performance in October.

He has cleared 22+ points in 4 of his last 6 games, and in 8 of his last 10 vs. the Celtics specifically.

Harden just dropped 31 points 2 days ago against the Grizzlies and I see another big night from the Beard tonight.

Bonus: Harden 25+ (+160) BetOnline
