GucciCapper is finally getting GucciCapper's SWAGGER back. Time to make it 3 in a row tonight!!!!!

Question

GucciCapper is finally getting back into the swing of things. After two blow out winners in a row, GucciCapper is going to back a small favorite that GucciCapper expects will hit with relative ease. Though this won't be as easy as the Blazers or Bulls, GucciCapper still thinks that the 76ers will get it done on the road today. Lay the -1.5 or take the -120 moneyline and take the 76ers for the following reasons.

1) Joel Embiid. Joel Embiid agreed with the criticism that Barkley and Shaq had to say about him. The last big road game for the 76ers was in Toronto and Embiid LAID an EGG. He didn't score. What better way to make a statement then on national television on TNT. GucciCapper is sure that the TNT crew will be breaking down Embiid tonight, and GucciCapper is quite confident that Embiid is going to have a huge game and that the crew will take credit for energizing Embiid.

2) Al Horford's Return. Horford is coming back to Boston and though he is questionable for the game. GucciCapper is very confident that he will play. GucciCapper expects a little extra motivation from Horford tonight against his old team.

3) The 76ers on the road. The 76ers have not beaten a .500 team on the road all season. They were very close against Toronto, and GucciCapper expects them to get over the hump tonight in Boston. As good as the 76ers have been at home, they have been downright terrible on the road. Look for them to have a marquee win on national television tonight.

4) Boston's Home Record. Boston is 10-0 at home. They are also an underdog tonight. This is the SAME exact situation that happened with the 76ers and Raptors last week. Expect different results tonight as Boston is fatigued.

5) Injuries. Marcus Smart is not playing. Robert Williams is also not playing. The injury to Smart is huge, but also with Williams out it leaves a big hole in the paint. GucciCapper expects Joel Embiid to have a huge night in the paint. If Theis gets in foul trouble, Embiid will DOMINATE against Kanter and the rest of the Celtics bigs. Gordon Hayward is questionable tonight but GucciCapper is very confident that he will suit up. Nonetheless, Hayward probably won't be feeling that great after taking a hit on the nose last night.

6) Fatigue. This will be the Celtics 3rd game in 4 nights. It's not only 3 games in 4 nights but there was travel involved. They had an easy win at home against Cleveland. Then they had a day off to get ready for the quick road trip to Indiana. After a hard fought game last night, they have to get on a plane back to Boston to take on a very MOTIVATED 76ers squad. Banged up and all, the best part about this is that the Celtics don't play again until ext Wednesday. Expect the team to come out lethargic tonight knowing that they will probably be going home to their loved ones for an extended period of time.

7) The 76ers destroyed the Celtics on opening night. GucciCapper thinks this 76ers team matches up very well against the Celtics. With Smart out, they match up even better. Look for them to dominate again tonight in Boston leaving Boston with their first home loss of the season.

So there you have it boys. Pound the 76ers tonight and lets make it 3 straight. GucciCapper feels the momentum and is VERY CONFIDENT that GucciCapper will make it 3 in a row tonight.
