Philadelphia 76ers Form
Philadelphia head to Boston on the back of their fifth defeat in nine games, which has left them 12-6.
The 76ers saw an eight-game win streak come to an end with a 132-126 defeat to Indiana and a 117-107 loss to Boston.
They rebounded with a 126-116 victory in Atlanta, and then moved on to Brooklyn where they blow out the Nets 121-99.
Philadelphia failed to make it three-in-a-row as they were beaten 122-119 in overtime by Cleveland, and that was followed by a 112-99 loss at Minnesota.
The 76ers responded with a 127-123 win in Oklahoma City and a 138-94 demolition of the Los Angeles Lakers, only to lose 124-114 at New Orleans on Wednesday night.
Boston Celtics Form
Boston have cooled a little over the past couple of weeks, but they are still on a great run that has taken them to 14-4.
The Celtics embarked on a six-game win streak in November that was eventually ended by a 121-118 overtime defeat in Charlotte.
They bounced back immediately to win a big Eastern Conference clash with Milwaukee, 119-116, only to then suffer a 113-96 defeat in Orlando.
Boston avoided back-to-back defeats as they returned home to take down Atlanta, 113-103, last weekend.
The Celtics then followed that up on Tuesday night with a 124-97 beating of Chicago in the NBA In-Season Tournament.
Verdict
Philadelphia have struggled against Boston in recent years, but the Celtics could be missing Porzingis and Holiday, so we are taking the 76ers and the points.
