Tonight marks the fourth meeting between these long-time division rivals, with the Boston Celtics taking the last two contests after the Philadelphia 76ers squeaked by with a three-point win all the way back in early November. When we last saw these teams meet at the beginning of December, Patrick Beverley tied to a career-high with 26 points to almost lead the Hospital Sixers to an upset. Pat Bev is podcasting from Milwaukee now, so the Sixers will need someone else to step up in a big way if they’re going to beat the league-best 45-12 Celtics on their own court.
