Sixers face Nets in battle for the sixth spot in the lottery
FILED UNDER:
It’s a big night for the Tank advocates as the Sixers host Brooklyn.
We are beyond the point of silver linings, hopeful conjectures, and patient optimism. The Philadelphia 76ers have now lost six straight games in varying degrees of embarrassing fashion. Through the sheer incalculable ineptitude of the Eastern Conference, the Sixers are still just 1.5 games out of the Play-In Tournament, but this recent stretch has shown that such a goal is a fool’s errand.
The Sixers even have the majority of their guys on the court these days and they’re still putting forth some of the most depressing efforts of this era of Philadelphia basketball. Joel Embiid looks like a shell of himself and Paul George has the world’s most debilitating finger injury and is getting pain injections like he’s on Varsity Blues. Both guys are having season shutdowns thrown around when they’re being discussed. It is time to embrace the tank and hope that the lottery gods smile upon this team’s top-6-protected pick.
Speaking of top-6-protected, the Sixers are 20-35, tied with the Brooklyn Nets for the sixth-worst record in the league. And look at that, tonight’s opponent is Brooklyn, marking this game as an incredibly important one for the Sixers’ standings stumble. The Nets got a head start on their own tank with the offseason trade of Mikal Bridges, followed by a December deal sending out Dorian Finney-Smith. Their rotation is currently full of a bunch of guys who sound like auto-generated names in Year 8 of a video game dynasty mode. It’s weird to look back so fondly on similar days of Process past for Philadelphia, as at least there weren’t stunningly unfulfilled expectations. And yet, Brooklyn beat the Sixers at the Barclays Center just less than two weeks ago. Can the Sixers reach that level of failure once more? Let’s find out!
On the injury report, D’Angelo Russell (ankle), Cam Thomas (hamstring), Noah Clowney (ankle), and De’Anthony Melton (ACL) are out for Brooklyn. Justin Edwards (ankle), Eric Grodon (wrist), Kyle Lowry (hip), and Jared McCain (knee) are out for the Sixers. On paper, the Sixers’ list of available guys should be more than enough to snap back into the victory column. FanDuel has Philadelphia listed as 10-point favorites, which feels to me as if the bookmakers haven’t checked in on the Sixers recently. Because anything on paper this season has been shredded up and rained down like a snowfall of ashes, so who knows.
Enough doom and gloom for the moment. Let’s try to enjoy relative newcomers Quentin Grimes and Jared Butler make some plays off the bounce. Every Dancing Bear dunk still brings a smile to my face. Or even an old-fashioned Tyrese Maxey heater would be exhilarating. If you made it to the end of a Sixers preview right now in this spiritually draining season, you’re certainly invested to what would clinically be labelled ‘sicko’ levels. I hope tonight’s game still brings you joy, possibly just through some extra lottery combinations sent the Sixers’ way in the spring.

76ers vs. Nets odds, score prediction, time: 2025 NBA picks, Feb. 22 predictions from proven model
The Philadelphia 76ers (20-35) and Brooklyn Nets (20-35) will square off in a matchup between 11th-place teams in the Eastern Conference on Saturday night. Philadelphia is hoping to snap a six-game losing streak after falling to Boston in a 124-104 final on Thursday in its return from the All-Star break. Brooklyn has won six of its last eight games, but it fell to Cleveland on Thursday in the final game of a six-game homestand. The Nets picked up a 100-96 win over the 76ers on Feb. 12 in the last game before the All-Star break.
Tipoff is set for 7:30 p.m. ET on Saturday at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. The 76ers are favored by 11 points in the latest 76ers vs. Nets odds, while the over/under is 212 points, per SportsLine consensus. Before entering any Nets vs. 76ers picks, you’ll want to see the NBA predictions from the model at SportsLine.
The SportsLine Projection Model simulates every NBA game 10,000 times and has returned well over $10,000 in betting profit for $100 players on its top-rated NBA picks over the past six-plus seasons. The model enters the second half of the 2024-25 NBA season on a sizzling 147-104 roll on all top-rated NBA picks dating back to last season, returning nearly $4,000. It’s also an outstanding 18-9 (67%) on top-rated spread picks this season. Anyone following at sportsbooks and on betting apps could have seen huge returns.
The model has set its sights on Philadelphia-Brooklyn. You can head to SportsLine to see its picks. Here are several NBA betting lines for the game:
Philadelphia has been dealing with injuries throughout the season, which has been a major contributor to its 20-35 start. However, its three best players were available on Thursday, but the 76ers had to face the defending NBA champions in Boston. Philadelphia has 27 games remaining on its schedule, so it desperately needs to turn things around quickly.
Point guard Tyrese Maxey leads the 76ers with 27.3 points and 6.1 assists per game, while center Joel Embiid is averaging 24.3 points and 8.2 rebounds. Veteran forward Paul George rounds out the “Big Three” with 16.2 points, 5.2 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game. Philadelphia is 12-3 in its last 15 games against Brooklyn, and it is 9-3-1 against the spread in the last 13 meetings. See which team to pick here.
Brooklyn has been playing its best basketball of the season since the end of January, winning six of its last eight games. The Nets remain without leading scorer Cam Thomas (hamstring) and previously traded veterans Dennis Schroder and Dorian Finney-Smith. D’Angelo Russell suffered an ankle injury against Cleveland on Thursday and is going to miss this game.
Small forward Cameron Johnson led Brooklyn with 18 points on 6 of 11 shooting against Cleveland in a game that the Nets failed to cover the spread by the hook. They covered in six of their previous seven games though, and Philadelphia is winless against the spread in its last seven games. The 76ers are 1-5 in their last six home games, so it is difficult to back them as double-digit favorites. See which team to pick here.
The model has simulated Nets vs. 76ers 10,000 times and the results are in. We can tell you that the model is leaning Over, and it’s also generated a point-spread pick that is hitting in over 60% of simulations. You can only see the pick at SportsLine.
So who wins 76ers vs. Nets, and which side of the spread hits over 60% of the time? Visit SportsLine now to see which side of the Nets vs. 76ers spread you need to jump on, all from the model that is on a 147-104 roll on top-rated NBA picks, and find out.
