The Golden State Warriors aren’t playing well this week, they’ve been a mess on the road, and now they’re without Curry for a couple of weeks. The Warriors lose on the road by an average of 8.5 points. The Philadelphia 76ers are quietly stringing wins together, and they’ve covered 10 of their last 11 home games. I have no choice but to lay the number with the 76ers at home.
