I really don't trust the Sixers defensively. They should win this game, but I wouldn't bet on it.

The nba spreads these playoff games out is ridiculous. I remember last year some games went with 3 days off.

Sixers are 31-8 when Embiid plays this year. Spo will try to throw in some crazy zone defenses so the 76ers role players will need to knock down some threes.Plus playoff Butler will show up so it should be a really close game.

Man, i really have no clue which team will win this game. Hopefully whichever team wins, they're able to knock the Knicks out in the 1st round.

Lottery? you mean what the knicks have been involved in the majority of the millienium? Such a perpetually pompous and obnoxious bunch. I'll thoroughly enjoy the umpteenth pre- ecf exit of the knicks. :lol:

Likewise maybe that 20th or whatever pick helps knicks get 52 wins next season after getting bounced early yet again! :lol:

Jimmy should call it publicly before the match to prove he wants the smoke, that would be hilarious and a very interesting gambling integrity situation.

Time for the Heat to start pissing people off again lol.

Seems like a good test of Bill Simmons' Ewing theory with this Knicks team.

If Miami wins this they need to build a statue of Spo and Jimmy...

Philly has a flyers game on Tuesday, and the NBA moved the date so there wasn't a clash.

So in three of the four matchups between these two, Embiid did not play (Sixers went 1-2). Embiid played in the last one, which they won by 4 on the road, and basically kept Miami from having the 5th seed. Should be a great game with everyone available.

Can Bam contain Embiid without foul trouble, even if Joel is hobbled? Vegas has the line at -4.5. I think this will move closer to a pick-em. Nick Nurse vs. Eric Spoelstra in a do-or-die game is fun as well.

I'll say Sixers win: 108-104.

I could see whoever wins this matchup beating the Knicks

Embiid has still looked really gimpy at times. He's one bad fall or bump from being out the rest of the way. Sixers might win this but I don't see Embiid making it through without missing more time.

Who wins and enters the playoffs as the 7 seed?
