Philadelphia Sixers: news and form
In 3rd place in the Eastern Conference, the Sixers can still hope to grab one of the first two places, occupied by Milwaukee and Boston. After five straight wins, they can believe it. Their squad spared from injury, Joel Embiid and James Harden are more than excellent, the rest of the group are following and it’s a whole team that is playing well.
Boston is a team that did poorly in Philadelphia (2-0 this season). But the maturity that Embiid has gained to win his team even without scoring, and the progress of the Sixers bench are reasons to believe that they can reverse the trend, less than two months from the play-offs.
Boston Celtics: news and form
Boston still has the best record in the entire NBA. His latest results are good (8-2) and the successive injuries of several players have not disturbed him. Without making any brilliant moves, the Celtics are in control and their squad is full again tonight. They have already beaten the Sixers twice this season, they know the recipe.
But some of their pursuers have been on the rise lately, starting with Philadelphia. The Boston defense will have to find a better solution to reduce the impact of Embiid on the game. And the outside shooters will have to have a lot of skill, as they know how to do, because the Philadelphia interior defense is formidable.
Five Major Sixers–Celtics:

Embiid
Tucker
Boston Celtics

Brown
Tatum

Williams

Horford
The Sixers are in top form and this face-to-face could tip in their favor. They found a better balance around Embiid, a player the Celtics know how to usually control. And the Sixers’ “secondary” players have improved, which will make it possible to stand up to the Boston armada.

The bearded man from Philadelphia is having a superb season. He has an average of “only” 21 points. The Celtics are going to target Embiid again, which will give Harden more ball. He should have enough to reach 25 points in this big meeting.
