76ers vs. Nets Prediction, Odds & Best Bet for NBA Playoffs Game 4 (Will Philadelphia Complete the Sweep?)

The 2022-23 NBA Playoffs continue on Saturday with Game 4 of the first-round series between the Philadelphia 76ers and Brooklyn Nets.

76ers vs. Nets Game 4 Info

• Series: PHI leads 3-0
• Date: Saturday, April 22, 2023
• Time: 1 p.m. ET
• Venue: Barclays Center -- Brooklyn, NY
• Coverage: TNT

The Nets' offense was, once again, nowhere to be found in Game 3. The 76ers walked out of Barclays Center on Thursday with a 102-97 victory, led by Tyrese Maxey and James Harden finishing with 25 and 21 points, respectively. Joel Embiid's 14-point, 10-rebound double-double also played a key role.

Will Philadelphia win again and move on to the next round? Or will Brooklyn stave off elimination for at least one more game?

76ers vs. Nets Prediction & Pick

While you can never say never in sports, there's little reason to like the Nets fighting back on Saturday. They've been lethargic to begin the series, averaging just 94.0 points on 45.0% shooting. It also doesn't help that they've been creamed in the paint, getting outrebounded 140-102 to begin the series.

The 76ers are just too deep when it comes to high-end talent to lose to a team like the Nets. When players like Embiid or Tobias Harris have quiet nights, Maxey and Harden are ready to step up. Meanwhile, outside of Mikal Bridges and Cameron Johnson, nobody's shown up for Brooklyn. Assuming that continues to be the case, the home team winning is a long shot.

The 76ers have also been victorious in eight of their last 11 trips to Barclays Center, meaning home-court advantage likely won't help the Nets here. Philadelphia is a championship contender and will prove that by completing the sweep.

Final Score Prediction: 76ers: 109 | Nets: 100

76ers vs. Nets Best Bet

For this game's best bet, I'm backing the 76ers to cover as 5.5-point favorites on the road. After all, Philadelphia is 4-0-1 ATS in its last five games, as well as 12-5-1 ATS in its last 18 against the Eastern Conference. On the other side, Brooklyn is 2-8-1 ATS in its previous 11 April contests while failing to cover in its last four outings overall.

With a plus-12.3 scoring margin this series, the 76ers won't have an issue covering this modest spread.

Bet: Philadelphia 76ers -5.5 (-110)
