The Miami Heat are in Philadelphia for their game against the host 76ers Wednesday night. The Heat will be facing the hottest team in the league coming into the postseason. The Sixers are 10-1 ATS their last eleven trips to the hardwood. When the Sixers have had Embiid on the floor, they are a perfect 6-0 SU/ATS. Through the last seventeen contests the Sixers are 11-5 SU and 13-2-1 ATS over that span. With Embiid on the floor, the 76ers have outscored opponents by 9.0 points every 100 possessions. Their most used lineup has a remarkable +33.3 net rating. De’Anthony Melton is part of that group, and his status is in question for this contest, but even without him they are still a very dangerous team. A perfect example of that is Tyrese Maxey who owned Miami in the regular season series. He averaged 27.3 points, 6.5 rebounds and 8.3 assists per game. The Heat have tried different defensive schemes in an effort to slow the Sixers offense, but they haven’t had much success. In fact, in the final meeting in South Beach Maxey and Embiid combined for sixty-eight points. Miami cannot trade points with the Sixers. Even with their most used lineup the Heat have a negative 5.8 net rating and only average 109.4 points per one-hundred possessions when they are on the hardwood. The TPR Index projects a point advantage of 9.96 points in favor of the Sixers. The MM projects a point differential of +5.06 in the current line range. The Pace-Tempo Matrix has an offensive-defensive differential of 4.91 with a transitional average of 42.17 and a projected conversion rate range of 45.9 to 47.8 percent. The SIM Matrix has the Philadelphia 76ers with a 73.94 percent advantage against the spread in this contest. Miami when facing Philadelphia as a road underdog and coming off a SU win as a home favorite they are 0-5 ATS and 0-6 ATS if they also lost ATS in that game. We are going to lay the chalk with the Sixers as they get an important win on Wednesday night.
