The Philadelphia 76ers (12-5) are massive 11-point favorites over the visiting New Jersey Nets (5-13) in Wednesday’s 7:00 PM ET matchup, and we’ll take a closer look at how each team is playing lately.
Philadelphia has been bet up from an opener of -10.5 thanks to bet-tracking sites showing that 70% of wagers are coming in on them, while the total of 192.5 has been bet down from 194.
The 76ers have won 8 straight head-to-head meetings with the Nets, including most recently when they won 115-90 as 10.5-point favorites in Philadelphia.

New Jersey has gone just 3-8 on the road this season but has shown some improvement recently while winning 3 of their last 7 games overall.
The Nets have covered the odds in every victory during that stretch, while failing to do so in every defeat.
The under has been a good bet in New Jersey’s games lately and has won the money in 3 of 5.
Philadelphia has won outright in 7 of their last 10 games this year and they’ve managed to cover the odds in all 7 victories.
They’ve gone under in 3 of their last 5 games but it is interesting to note that these two teams have combined to go over in 17 under in another 18 despite the recent trend of low-scoring games.
Philadelphia has been one of the best bets in the NBA this year and enters Wednesday’s clash with a 12-4-1 mark against the Las Vegas line.
