  • Each of the 76ers’ last four games on the second leg of a back-to-back have gone OVER the total points line.

Randy’s Pick

The points with the Philadelphia 76ers at home are hard to turn down, but the big line shift has me questioning if someone will sit out on the end of a back to back. This line at one point had the 76ers as -1.5 point favorites. Now 4 point underdogs? Fishy. The Boston Celtics have the rest advantage, and they’re the healthier team overall. I lean Celtics because the line change scares me.
