The 76ers will look to continue the trend of the home team winning in convincing fashion. Their backs are up against the wall tonight as they try to avoid elimination.<\/p>\n 76ers vs Heat Team Total Props<\/h3>\nThe spread for tonight is set at Philadelphia 76ers -2 with a total of 207, setting the Miami team total at 102.5 and the 76ers at 104.5. The totals have been pretty consistent in this series with 3 of the 5 games staying under the total.<\/p>\n In every game but Game 4, at least one team has been kept under 100 points. Tonight it seems like if you like Philly it’s overs and if you like Miami it’s unders. The Heat defense has held the 76ers under tonight’s team total in 4 of 5 games as they maxed out with 116 points in Game 5.<\/p>\n The 76ers need huge points from an injury riddled Joel Embiid and underperforming James Harden to eclipse this team total. I’m fully expecting Miami to ratchet up the defense in an attempt to close out the series. I’m taking the 76ers team total under 104.5 in this one.<\/p>\n Team Total Prop Play: Philadelphia 76ers Under 104.5<\/strong><\/p>\n This series has been interesting from a player props perspective as most players outside of Jimmy Butler have been consistently going under.<\/p>\n James Harden is one of those players as he has fallen under his points + rebounds + assists in 4 of the 5 games in this series. Joel Embiid just doesn’t look comfortable between a facial fracture and torn ligament in his thumb.<\/p>\n His PRA total is set at 39.5, a total he has yet to achieve in all three games that he has appeared in. I think you could look towards Embiid on the first basket prop at +450 odds.<\/p>\n It might be worth a sprinkle considering that he should come out looking to get his team off to a hot start at home. However, my player prop will be on his PRA under tonight.<\/p>\n Player Prop Play: Joel Embiid Under 39.5 Points+Rebounds+Assists<\/strong><\/p>\n As usual I’m going to keep it simple and utilize my favorite plays from above on our same game parlay. We can’t use Embiid’s PRA under as it’s not available, but I’ll gladly add his under 27.5 points.<\/p>\n We will also use the 76ers team total under but up it to 110.5. Jimmy Butler has been amazing in this series, especially in the two games in Philadelphia where he scored 40 and 33 points. Even in his last two home games he scored 22 & 23 points.<\/p>\n I expect Butler to be aggressive tonight in an attempt to close out this series. Let’s add Butler over 23.5 points here to get a sweet +225 price.<\/p>\n Same Game Parlay Play:<\/p>\n Philadelphia 76ers Team Total Under 110.5<\/strong> \n |
