CLASSIC QUALITY OVER QUANTITY NIGHT
College basketball reigns supreme tonight, Wise Guy and
Major.
Greatest always allows the card to dictate how many selections we make.
Sometimes we have more plays on short card than we do on a full slate.
Wednesday, there are two classic examples of teams either under or overvalued
based on aberrational one game performances. This is why we dominate starting
early in the year. One is a Wise Guy, the other a Major. Click now to

SEATTLE Philadelphia
The Sixers have come back down to earth quickly. Following
a shocking 3-0 start, they have lost three in a row. They face a
team sky high following a three game road winning streak.
Remember,
comes in undervalued off a very disappointing year. Even their losses have been
competitive, with a four point margin the biggest they’ve suffered. That
includes road games at
Orlando in back to back nights.
The Sixers open a short but difficult road trip tonight at
KeyArena against the Seattle SuperSonics,
a team that put up 119 points Monday against the New Jersey Nets, considered
one of the league’s better teams.
The Sonics, along with the next two opponents on this
trip,
Clippers, average more than 100 points.
For a Sixers team that has spent a lot of time patching up
holes in the defense, a main contributor to its three-game losing streak, a
shoot-out with one, two or all three of these opponents is not desirable.
Philly has allowed 103.7 points per game in their recent
three-game skid. It gets ugly tonight.
