Through 3 Quarters

Down seven at the end of last quarter, the Philadelphia 76ers have now snagged the lead. After three quarters it's looking more and more like their high-powered offense is just too much for the New York Knicks as the Sixers lead 93-81.

The 76ers have enjoyed the tag-team combination of center Joel Embiid and point guard James Harden. The former has dropped a double-double on 23 points and 11 rebounds, while the latter has 24 points and six assists along with six boards. A double-double would be The Beard's third in a row.

New York has been led by small forward R.J. Barrett, who so far has 23 points and four assists in addition to four rebounds.

New York has lost 88% of the time when they were down heading into the fourth quarter this season, so this one seems just about wrapped up

What to Know

After three games on the road, the Philadelphia 76ers are heading back home. After a few days' rest for both teams, they and the New York Knicks will meet up at 7:30 p.m. ET March 2 at Wells Fargo Center. The Sixers know how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with flashy point totals in its past three matchups -- so hopefully New York likes a good challenge.

The 76ers are hoping for another victory. They had enough points to win and then some against the Knicks on Sunday, taking their game 125-109. Philadelphia's point guard James Harden was on fire, dropping a triple-double on 29 points, 16 dimes, and ten rebounds. That's The Beard's first triple-double of the season.

The Sixers are the favorite in this one, with an expected 10.5-point margin of victory. They might be worth taking a chance on against the spread as they are currently on a three-game streak of ATS wins.

Philadelphia's win lifted them to 37-23 while New York's loss dropped them down to 25-36. We'll see if the 76ers can repeat their recent success or if the Knicks bounce back and reverse their fortune.
