Season Series

Wednesday, March 15th the Philadelphia 76ers face the Cleveland Cavaliers for the third and final time in the regular season. The clubs split the prior two matches with Cleveland winning on November 30th (113-85) while Philly was victorious (118-112) on February 15th.

All time the 76ers have the advantage of winning 115 of 221 matches versus the Cavaliers. Last season the teams played four times with the 76ers sweeping the season series.

Philadelphia 76ers

Timing is everything and the 76ers are benefitting from that fact having won five in a row.

More importantly, Joel Embiid is playing arguably his best ball of the season while the Celtics and Nuggets have stumbled which may clear the path for him to finally win the MVP award that has alluded him for the past two seasons.

Stats

Offensively, the 76ers have hit their stride ranking 13th in scoring with 115 points per game ranking while shooting the eighth best (48.5%) from the field and now boast the top perimeter efficiency of 38.9%.

Defense was always their main calling card and continues to be impressive as they allow the third-fewest opponent points of 110.4. From an efficiency, perspective foes shoot 47.2% from the field and 35% from deep ranking 15th and seventh respectively.

Injury Report

To summarize the injury report…

• Jalen McDaniels, PF (questionable—hip)

Cleveland Cavaliers

Sitting Donovan Mitchell in the match Tuesday was a smart business decision. As I noted recently, Cleveland is sort of in a tier of their own trailing the red-hot Sixers by 3.0 games while also holding a 3.0 game padding over both New York teams.

With only 11 games remaining it’s extremely unlikely they’ll move out of fourth so making sure the core is rested and healthy should take precedence.

Season Stats

Offensively, Cleveland scores 112.0 points per game ranking 24th while shooting 48.7% from the field and 36.3% on the perimeter ranking sixth and 12th respectively.

Overall, Cleveland tops the league for opponent scoring limiting foes to an average of 106.7 points per game. Cavs opponents shoot 46.6% from the field and 37.1% from deep ranking seventh and 22nd.

Injury Report

To summarize the injury report…

• Jarrett Allen, C (questionable — eye)

Free Philadelphia 76ers vs. Cleveland Cavaliers NBA Prediction:

Both teams are poised for home court in the first round of the playoffs but while the Cavs are destined for the four seed, Philly is still very much in a battle with the Celtics for the second seed.

Philly has 15 games remaining, four more than the Cavs (11) and two more than the Celts (13) so they control their own destiny. As such (and the fact Jarrett Allen is likely out) I’m leaning toward them winning easily covering.
