00:00Joe Ellen bead makes his 2024 25 debut tonight at home for Philadelphia as a two and a half
00:10point underdog hosting the New York Knicks to 12 and a hook is that total pretty minimal
00:15again Joe we have talked about it only two teams in the Eastern Conference above 500
00:21that does not include the Knicks or the Sixers New York is four and five a game below 500
00:27the 76ers are just two and seven will Joe Joe's return no Tyrese Maxey but will Joe
00:32Joe's return lead to a win for Philadelphia tonight I don't know but it feels like that
00:40number 215 and a half is a little light here too as well given the Knicks are averaging
00:45what about 115 points a game this season and the Sixers haven't exactly been all that great
00:53defensively and granted now Joel Embiid is be back but what are we gonna get from him
00:57Ben I mean let's be realistic I'd be willing to bet offensively he'll be able to contribute
01:03enough and we'll open up some shots in the perimeter for some other guys but I mean all
01:08in all how many minutes are we expecting from Embiid here I still think the Knicks are gonna
01:13go bombing away here I think they're gonna offensively continue to do what they do they
01:18are challenged a little bit defensively I think this can be a wild shootout here tonight
01:23I'd be I think it lands in the 220s not the teens here in this one the totals too low
01:30the Knicks over in four of their last six games in fact the Knickerbockers have been
01:35booked as the favorite every single game all eight since the season opener against the
01:40rating champs inside TD Garden that being the Celtics they have split those eight games
01:45both straight up and against the spread they have won four they have covered in those four
01:50wins of course as a favorite if you lose outright you do not cover the Philadelphia 76ers just
01:56two in seven both straight up and against the spread only one cover as an underdog in
02:04any of those seven losses Joel Embiid tonight to return his points prop Joe 24 and a half
02:12that has not been a great start to this season for the Sixers might some NBA Cup action light
02:18a fire in this Philadelphia team
