Xam’s Daily Gem:
76ers/Warriors Money Line Parlay -116 FanDuel 1 Unit
PLAY OF THE DAY!
The 76ers are in a MAJOR rut and come into this game at 2-12. This is DESPITE the fact they believed they’d compete for the NBA Finals. Needless to say, it hasn’t worked out so far. They NEED to start stacking wins, and tonight is a great time to start. The Nets aren’t a great team either, coming into tonight at 6-9. They are only scoring 109 points per game on the road this season, so it’s been a struggle for them. Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey NEED to be the leaders that the 76ers are paying them to be. The 76ers have too much talent to be this bad. Even without Paul George in this game, Jared McCain, Guerschon Yabusele, and Caleb Martin are ALL qualified role players who will do enough to step up against the Nets. If the Nets can contain guys like Cam Thomas and Cam Johnson, the 76ers SHOULD get the job done at Wells Fargo Center!
The Warriors have started this season ON FIRE, coming into tonight’s game at 11-3 and come into this game atop the entire Western Conference! Crucially, for a veteran-laden team, they have only played 2 games since the 15th, so the Warriors should be WELL RESTED for this matchup. Critically, the Pelicans are just a DISASTER! They are banged up and just not playing with any confidence. Zion Williamson is out, Brandon Ingram is banged up and may not play, and several others are hurt as well. Against the Cavaliers, they were missing SEVEN top players! It’s the 3rd game in 4 nights for the Pelicans, who have lost their last 2 games by a combined 69 points! The Warriors are just better in every facet of the game, and they are more rested. Steph Curry, Draymond Green, and Andrew Wiggins are not going to fall for a trap game. The Warriors are on a MISSION!
