(NBA) Philadelphia vs. Toronto,
Point Spread: 1.50 | -110.00 Toronto (Home)
Result: Win
The Raptors won by 10 on Tuesday but didn't shoot well shooting just 42% and missing 26 three-pt shots.
They have quietly been playing some of the best basketball in the Eastern Conference recently. They are 7-3 in their last 10 games with two wins already over the Sixers this season.
The defense has been suspect for the Sixers in recent outings, wand James Harden doesn't like to play defense and only averaging 15ppg. For the most part, the team was accepting of that possibility as long as they got an elite scorer in return. Toronto is better defensively and has more scoring options. Take the Raptors here on Thursday night.
