Finale

Although there aren’t many teams the 76ers are favored against, they are no longer a team that can be taken lightly. Embiid will grind hard as hell to try to propel his Sixers to victory every single night.

He’s good enough to actually get some wins, too. Here’s a bonus prediction for this game: Henson will be the first started subbed out, in favor of the bigger Greg Monroe. If Hassan Whiteside was able to push around Henson in the post, Embiid likely will too.

It will be interesting to see how the Bucks approach this game. Embiid might find himself doubled, often. There just aren’t many other real threats to do much of anything in Philly aside from The Process.
