Sixers vs Celtics

Sixers -2 over Celtics (win)
The Sixers have been great this year and are starting to get Embiid back to health.  One thing that has haunted this team over the past few years is playing in Boston, but this Celtics team is not as talented as they were in past years and the Sixers finally got a coach that actually knows how to coach.  This line is set low because of the Sixers road struggles at TD Garden, but this team has turned that corner and there is no doubt some of these players on the Sixers want a big road win in this building.  Take the Sixers.

Mets -120 over Phillies (win)
Stroman/Anderson
The mets had a few postponements and got their season started yesterday.  Jake deGrom was flawless and then the second he left the game the Mets blew the game.   I expect the Mets to get better run support tonight against Chase Anderson who is making his Phillies debut.  Anderson has a rough year last year for the Bluejays and he walked a lot of batters this spring.   Marcus Stroman opted out last year so his arm is fresh.   Stroman looked sharp in spring ball.  I think the Mets have the slight pitching edge and will be motivated to win a game back that they let get away from them last night.  Take the Mets.
