Key Factors

Favors Over

Paul George has put up 20.2 points per game over the last 10 games while on his home court, 3.6 higher than he's put up overall this year at home.
The matchup vs. New York is a good one for three-point shots; when the New York Knicks are the visiting team, the other team's starting PFs have compiled the 2nd-highest three rate in the NBA this year (47.7%).
As a team, the 76ers have been very successful at drawing fouls of late: 9th-best in the league over the last 5 games, drawing 25.4 foul shot attempts per game.
The matchup vs. the Knicks may be a good one for drawing fouls; opposing starting PFs have attempted a monstrous 5.2 foul shots per game over the last 5 games (5th-most in the NBA).

Favors Under

The 3rd-most lethargic tempo offense in the NBA over the last 10 games has been the 76ers.
The Philadelphia 76ers are expected to see a decline in plays in this contest from competing against the slowest pace team in the league over the last 25 games (the New York Knicks).
Offensive rebounds lengthen possession and result in further chances for scoring and assists, but the 76ers grade out 2ndworst in in the league with just 8.4 offensive rebounds per game over the last 10 games.
