NBA opening night best bets: LeBron James to struggle against Warriors; ride the over in Celtics vs. 76ers
The NBA season starts on Tuesday night. Boston Celtics and Philadelphia 76ers are playing. LeBron James and Stephen Curry are going to play each other. The best bets for opening night are LeBron vs. Stephen, Boston vs., and 76er vs, Celtics.
Boston Celtics are playing against Philadelphia 76ers. Al Horford has played well against Joel Embiid in the past. The Celtics were a No. 7 seed with most of this roster when Brad Stevens coached it in 2021. This will be Joe Mazzulla's head-coaching debut. Philadelphia is the favorite. I'm backing the offenses. Vegas hasn't adjusted yet for how the league's adjusted transition take-foul rule will boost scoring. Harden has a 15-4 head to head record against Marcus Smart. Over 216 is my pick. iReport.com: NBA opening night bets.
