The Philadelphia 76ers have been competitive at times, but this is just a very bad basketball team. The Brooklyn Nets are starved for a win and are off to a bad start themselves at 5-8. The Nets won't mail this one in as they need a win, and the talent disparity certainly stretches beyond the line in this one in favor of the Nets. Philly's #1 pick Nerlens Noel had to sit out last season, and they thought he would be at the top of the scoring list for them this year, but at just 7.9 points per game he has not lived up to the billing. The overall result is 0-14 for the 76ers. The Nets are 13-6 ATS in their last 19 vs. a team below .400, so they have shown that they show up in these games, and needing a win here should ensure that happening. Take Brooklyn.
