With a 1-2 record, the Philadelphia 76ers are heading to the Big Easy tonight. But given the Hornets' performance so far this NBA season, surviving the four quarters with a win won't be so easy.
The New Orleans Hornets have a 2-game winning streak propping up their egos. That includes a victory on the road against Chicago on Saturday, and, more impressively, they did it without Anthony Davis, who was sidelined with a concussion.
Aiding them was Robin Lopez, who scored 16 points against Chicago. Standing in for Davis was Ryan Anderson, who impressed with 12 points and 13 rebounds. And lets not forget about Jason Smith, who netted 16 points in less than 16 minutes of court time.
Anthony Davis is expected to return to the floor tonight. But while sports bettors are excited about his return, it's Greivis Vasquez who has NBA followers stoked the most, thanks to his stellar 18 points against the Bulls.
Tonight, they'll all face some competition in the Philadelphia 76ers, especially with Jrue Holiday on the squad. He leads Philly in scoring with 19.3 points per game, 8.7 assists, and an impressive 3-point shooting success rate of 63%
But the 76ers aren't faring so well with center Andrew Bynum still sidelined. He's been absent in every game so far because of a knee problem. With Bynum benched, Philly's offense has struggled significantly. Through a total of three games, Philly has averaged 85.3 points per game, and only three players are scoring in the double digits.
Game Odds:
Philadelphia 76ers: -1-110, ML -120
New Orleans Hornets: +1-110, ML EV
Game Total: 180, o/u-110
Despite playing in Louisiana, the latest odds on NBA for this game show the Sixers as one point favorite to win this game. Now, bettors should note that the 76ers have won four of their last five match ups against the Hornets since the 2009-10 NBA season. And in New Orleans, the 76ers have won two of the last three matchups.
With that kind of record, do you think Philly will have an easy time in the Big Easy? When you're Sports Betting Online you get 10% cash back on your bet, no matter who wins at SportsBettingOnline.ag
