Philadelphia put it all together with the last game, winning 112-101, but that was at home and this is a very different spot for the young 76ers, playing a Game 7 on the road. The 76ers are 5-12 ATS following a straight up win of more than 10 points. They will lean on defense in this winner-take-all showdown. The Sixers are top 10 in field goal shooting defense and beyond the arc during the regular season. In any NBA playoff series that is tied, the FIRST HALF UNDER is 148-94 between two teams with winning percentages between 60% to 75%. Toronto can also play stellar defense, top 10 in points allowed, field goal shooting defense, three-point 'D', and on a 12-6-1 run UNDER. Toronto has won two of three at home in this series by 13 and 36 points and has covered six straight after a defeat of more than 10 points. They will showcase intense defense in bounce-back mode. The UNDER is 130-76 when the first half total is 100.5 to 105 in playoff games. Toronto is on a 16-7 ATS run against the 76ers, and the home team is 9-3 ATS when they meet. Play Toronto and the First Half UNDER.
