Philadelphia at Cleveland

The Philadelphia 76ers rose from the ashes of a poor first three quarters at home vs. the Raptors, and came alive in the fourth to dominate 33-18 to close the deal. It was basically a 12-minute performance, surrounded by lackluster play. The point is that they are better than these poor teams, and can turn it up a notch even after playing poorly to get the win. Cleveland falls in that same category. Since LeBron left town, Cavaliers’ wins have been few and far between. This year is starting to look familiar as they have started 2-8 on the season. The Sixers have made a living off of losing teams at 23-9 ATS in their last 32 when facing them. What was once a strong home court for the hapless Cavs, has now been diminished to a 6-17 ATS mark in their last 23 here. The Sixers have had no trouble against them as they are 4-0 ATS in their last four vs. the Cavaliers. Make that five tonight and play on Philly.
