I had Philadelphia with the points at New York on Tuesday, and the 76ers won 106-100. They trailed New York by four at halftime, then trailed Cleveland by 24 at halftime on Thursday before winning 114-106. Philadelphia is 2-0 with wins by six and eight. The same five starters played both games. Tyrese Maxey scored 28 and 32 in 40 and 42 minutes, and Joel Embiid scored 13 and then 24. Philadelphia made 11 of 40 threes and then 7 of 28, and New York outrebounded it 53-45. The Bucks are 0-2 after losing 128-116 to Washington and 132-125 to Chicago. Tyler Herro scored 24 and then 34, and Jaime Jaquez Jr. scored 22 and then 19. Milwaukee shot 45% and 50% from the field and had 28 assists and then 29. The Bucks made 15 of 41 threes and then 19 of 46. They led at halftime in both games, 56-51 against Washington and 62-61 against Chicago, and the Bucks on the spread are the side I want.
