Premium Pick

Game 1 soared OVER by 15 points as Philadelphia won 125-118 as the 76ers shot 49.4 percent and the Wizards shot 56 percent and defense was not the focus in this game. The 76ers have gone OVER their last three games by an average of nearly 17 points while scoring 125 points per game. Washington was one of the worst defensive squads in the league all season and that won't change in the playoffs. Eight of the past 10 meetings at Philadelphia have gone OVER and the OVER is 55-24 in the Wizards' past 79 games playing with two days rest. Washington is 9-3-1 OVER its past 13 games playoff games as an underdog and the Wizards have gone OVER five of their past seven road games. Take the OVER.
