Boston went into the All-Star break winning seven of eight and covering the spread its last three, including 116-103 over San Antonio last Wednesday. Philadelphia's nightmare season continued as the 76ers have lost seven of eight and they are 0-6 ATS their past six games. Joel Embiid, as usual, can't stay healthy and the Sixers have been depending on Tyrese Maxey to keep them in games, but Maxey now is questionable with a possible knee contusion. Philadelphia is just 9-18 ATS at home this season and 0-5 ATS its past five games against Eastern Conference foes. Boston has gone OVER eight of its past 12 road games against the 76ers and five of seven overall versus the Atlantic Division. Philadelphia is 0-6 ATS with at least three days rest and 13-3-1 OVER against teams with .600 winning percentages, 8-1 OVER at home against opponents with winning road records. Take the Celtics and the OVER.
