Sixers look to kick off the second half of the NBA season a little better then the first half went sure the Sixers went 34-21 and finished 5th overall in the Eastern Conference but this team has the talent to contend and compete with the Milwaukee Bucks if they can get into a grove starting with the Brooklyn Nets here on Thursday night at the Wells Fargo Center.
Sixers come into this game a rock solid 25-2 SU at home and winners of 3 straight before the break. Sixers look for Joel Embiid to get out of the gate hot he is averaging 22.9 points per game with 11.9 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game. Sixers beat this team 117-111 about a month ago in Brooklyn. Sixers also look to guard Josh Richardson to have another game like he did going into the break when Josh put up 21 points and 5 rebounds in 32 minutes.

Ben Simmons the other Sixers all star went into the all star break on maybe his best game of the NBA season where he put up 26 points 12 rebounds and 10 assists on his way to yet another triple double this season. Nets come into Philly off a disappointing first half of the year that saw their top star Kyrie Irving hurt constantly this time its a bum shoulder.
Kyrie is out indefinitely and most likely will be shut down for the season as the Nets really don’t have much to play for even though they sit at the number 7 spot in the east they frankly are going nowhere. Nets will lean on Spencer Dinwiddie who is averaging 21 points and 6.6 assists per game and has been that blue collar presence that Brooklyn fans appreciate.

Sixers I just do not see them coming out flat here as they just have too much to play for. A loss here would be catastrophic against a weak Nets team. Yes its always a risk laying more then 6 points with the Sixers but I believe a rested a motivated Sixers team will glide to a win at home over the Nets. Sixers 128 Nets 109.
