This game is important for both teams, as they need the victory for their own reasons.

New Jersey wants to win the game, in order to have some chances of getting to the playoffs. The Nets are 3 games behind Atlanta which is in 8th position and they know that another defeat would take them away from the 8th position.

Philadelphia is in 7th position, but they still want to win this game, as they are 1.5 games behind Washington and Toronto which are in a tie for the 5th position. Philadelphia wants to win so as to move as high as they can, because if they remain in the 7th position, they will face Detroit.

New Jersey is improving during their last games, mostly offensively. They are scoring an average of 107.2 points, but they are allowing opponents to score 106.4 and that is costing to them. Also, over is 6-2 in last 8 games of New Jersey against teams from Eastern Conference and they are having 7 over in their last games overall. New Jersey's last 5 games are averaging 213.6 points and they've scored over 100 points in the 6 of their last 7 games.

Philadelphia is coming from 2 defeats in a row but they are still one of the hottest teams in the Nba. They are a young team that they are playing strong defense and they are having a fast tempo in their plays. They steal the ball a lot and they are managing many fast breaks. Sixers' games are having an average of 192.4 points, but in some of these games they faced teams that are playing very strong defense, as Boston and Cleveland.

I believe that the game will be fast and that Philadelphia will take advantage of New Jersey's weak defense, so they will score many fast break points. If New Jersey wants to win this, it is my opinion that they have to score many points, like they did against Indiana.
