Boston Owns Philly 👀
The Sixers and Celtics will kick off their series tonight, with Joel Embiid most likely out. Boston has owned Philly in the playoffs, but looked a little shaky last round vs. the Hawks. Plus, Steph Curry is the best player in the NBA 🏀 (2 min read)

Curry Magic
I think it’s time that this is said…Steph Curry is the best player in the NBA. Game 7 on the road? 50-piece? It’s crazy to think that Steph won back-to-back MVPs eight years ago, and he might be better now than he was then. I’m sure you’ve seen all the stats and Curry praise, but just in case here’s every bucket from yesterday 🧑🍳
STEPH CURRY'S 50-POINT GAME 7.
EVERY SINGLE POINT.

Steph took 38 shots and only had one turnover. One of the best playoff performances of all-time. The Curry vs. LeBron rivalry is now renewed, with Golden State getting home court advantage against LA 👀
"We're blessed to be playing at this level still. Excited about a new chapter. Two teams tryna keep their season alive & chase a championship, that’s what it’s all about.”

Tonight we have Game 1 of the Sixers vs. Celtics series, with Joel Embiid likely out. Philly hasn’t played in nine days, but have looked better than Boston in the playoffs so far. The Celtics are -560 to advance, a line that obviously has Embiid’s health factored in - if he can suit up by Game 2 or 3, this historic rivalry should get a fun next chapter 💪
Celtics. Sixers. A timeless matchup ☘️🔔

For My Parlay Gurus
I’m going with the Sixers to cover tonight - Boston should win but 10 points is a lot. Give me Denver at home as well, the Nuggets looked amazing on Saturday and might be way too deep for the Suns 👇
Sixers +10 @ Celtics: -110
Nuggets -4.5 vs. Suns: -110
