Free NBA Betting Pick: Philadelphia 76ers vs. Boston Celtics: March 24th

March 24th, 2008

Free NBA Pick: Philadelphia 76ers +9.5 (-110)
Mon March 24 ’08 7:35p

The Boston Celtics have won the first three meetings with the Philadelphia 76ers this season, but we look for the Sixers to give them a major battle tonight.

Philadelphia has won five of their six games straight up since the third Celtics loss, with the only defeat coming at Orlando. The Sixers are on a nice 18-7-1 run against the spread, and they have a winning 19-15-1 ATS record on the road form the entire season, only losing those games by an average of -3.7 points, easily good enough to cover this big number.

The Celtics are coming off if a 113-106 loss at New Orleans, and this is their first home game following a five-game road trip, which is almost always a flat spot for most teams. This was the fifth time this season that the Celtics have had a road trip of four games or more, and on the first four occasions, they were just 1-3 ATS in their first game back home with the only cover coming vs. the lowly and depleted Clippers.

Look for Boston to struggle somewhat in this situation again vs. this hot Philadelphia club.
