Cleveland was a 106-102 loser in its last match on the road against the Indiana Pacers. They failed to cover the -3.5-point spread as favorites, while the total score of 208 sent UNDER bettors to the payout window. The loss ended their winning streak at 13 games. A win would have meant a team record for the longest winning streak. The Cavs were once 5-7 and facing questions about their age and roster. All of those issues were put away by a winning streak that started Nov. 11. An ice-cold fourth quarter against the Pacers in which the Cavaliers scored one point in the first 5:55 of the quarter all but ensured an end to the streak. The Cavs beat the Sixers 113-91 on Nov. 27 in Philadelphia. Embiid was the lone bright spot for the Sixers.. He scored 30 points to go with 11 rebounds. He was so disruptive that Kevin Love, who was guarding Embiid, said he apologized at the end of that game to James. The Cavs smothered the Sixers in the first meeting on defense. They held Philadelphia to .375 shooting. James posted 30 points, 14 rebounds and three assists.76ers Still have Young Talent Against Cavs
Philadelphia was a 107-104 loser in its last match at home against the Lakers. They failed to cover the -8.5-point spread as favorites, while the total score of 211 sent UNDER bettors to the payout window. The Sixers will still have young star power against the Cavs. Ben Simmons registered his third triple-double of his rookie season Thursday. He coudn’t help stave off a loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. Simmons had 12 points, 13 rebounds, 15 assists. Simmons became just the third rookie in NBA history to have three triple-doubles in his first 23 games. He is in great company, as he joined Oscar Robertson and Magic Johnson as the only two other rookies to accomplish the feat. Simmons is 6 feet 10 and sometimes is compared with King James. They are similar is style and stature.Power Stats
