Game Preview
The 76ers had Joel Embiid against the Pistons, who played without their best player, Cade Cunningham, and still lost 125-112. This is the ultimate proof of the claim that the Sixers are one of the worst teams in the East this year.
Philadelphia 76ers have the No.27 offense in the NBA with 109.1 points scored per game. We don’t believe that those numbers will significantly go up even with Embiid ready and in the lineup. The chemistry on the floor is heavily ruined.
The Milwaukee Bucks went to Atlanta to meet the Hawks, and they lost 115-110. The Bucks had a 21-point lead but squandered it. Kyle Kuzma made his debut, but Giannis Antetokounmpo strained his calf and didn’t appear.
Kuz scored 12 points off the bench, though he shot only 4-for-13. He had seven boards and looked solid, protecting the rim and the area around the paint.
76ers vs. Bucks Head to Head
The Bucks won the previous two events with almost identical results. They were better in Philly, 124-109, and then at home, 123-109.
76ers vs. Bucks Prediction
With or without Giannis (and we believe he’ll play), the Bucks are a better team, and they should easily beat the 76ers.
