NBA promised us nonstop action at the bubble, and they are living true to their word, giving us interesting fixtures. So far, we have seen the best and worst game in the bubble with a lot more to look out for. Here are some top predictions for some Friday games.
We start with the Philadelphia 76ers vs. Houston Rockets fixture. The Rockets have been at their best in the bubble, winning their games effortlessly. Russel Westbrook and James Harden have continued with their cooperation, leading the team in points. With the two of them present, the Rockets seem assured of their victory.
The 76ers have not been all bad. Joel Embid and Tobias Harris keep coming through for their team, sealing their victory with the most points. He scored 41 points in their game against the Indiana Pacers, although his team lost that game. But he’s not the only one with impressive stats as James Harden also scored 49 points in the Rockets fixture against Dallas Mavericks. Very impressive indeed. One can easily expect the score of both teams to go over 100 points each.
Our next focus is on the Miami Heat vs. Indiana Pacers game. Pacers have had no problem with beating Miami Heat in the past, so they should not find Friday night any different, except that things are not how they used to be. The heat has everything within them to win their fixture against the Pacers.
Bam Adebayo has two times so far, led his team with the highest score. His teammates, like Tyler Herro and Goran Dragic. Even their losses have not been that bad. The highest point in the bubble so far goes to Pacers’ T. J Warren, and he has continued to score the most points for the team in almost all their fixtures. With him in their game against Miami Heat, they stand a better chance to score more points.
We shift to the Denver Nuggets vs. Toronto Raptors match, which also looks to be an interesting feature. Think what you may of Nuggets, but those guys have had no problem with defeating the Raptors. Winning may look easy for the Raptors, but they may not find it easy against the Nuggets.
Nikola Jokic and Michael Porter Jr. have been the ones delivering the Nuggets, and with those two in the game, the Nuggets have a higher chance of winning. But the Raptors should not be out ruled, having lost only one game in the bubble so far. This may just be that one time that they decide to change the narrative in their fixture against the Raptors by winning.
