With the top-seeded Milwaukee Bucks on vacation, all eyes will be on the Philadelphia 76ers–Boston Celtics conference semifinal series to see who will emerge as the favorite from the Eastern Conference.

Game 2 of the NBA best-of-seven series will be Wednesday in Boston.

The Celtics won three of the four games against the Sixers this season.

The longtime rivals have met twice in the previous five postseasons, with Boston taking both.

Here’s a look at the series from a betting perspective, with odds at FOX Bet:

Also in the spotlight for the series is Philadelphia star center Joel Embiid. The betting favorite to win NBA MVP, Embiid sprained his right knee in Game 3 against the Brooklyn Nets. Embiid finished that game but sat out the series-clinching Game 4.

The good news for the Sixers is they have had plenty of time to rest and rehabilitate. They last played on April 22.

The bad is, reports say it wasn’t enough time as Embiid didn’t play in the series opener.

The franchises have been rivals since the first jump ball after the Syracuse Nationals joined the NBA in 1946 (they moved to Philadelphia in 1963). The Celtics lead the all-time playoff series between the teams, 62-47.
