Nets vs 76ers NBA live stream reddit for Oct. 22
Facing another possible Ben Simmons absence, the 1-0 Philadelphia 76ers will push for another victory as they host the 0-1 Brooklyn Nets on Oct. 22.
It’s not just a game between two of Eastern’s top teams: it’s a collision of the NBA’s two biggest dramas so far in the 2021-22 season.
On the 76ers side, there’s Ben Simmons, the premier shooting guard who simply refuses to play for Philadelphia anymore. Simmons wanted out of Philly all summer, but when his wish wasn’t granted and the fines piled up, he (sort of) showed up for practice.
Simmons was suspended in the first game due to “conduct detrimental to the team“, and he’s likely to be out this game due to a back injury.
But the Nets aren’t themselves either, as their own elite point guard, Kyrie Irving, is also out by his own choosing. For Irving, he’s just refusing to get vaccinated and comply with team mandates so he can remain “a voice for the voiceless.”
Despite the drama, the 76ers have found success with Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey, Simmons’ replacement. The Brooklyn superteam is still working with James Harden and Kevin Durant, so even without Simmons and Irving, these two teams are set to go toe-to-toe on Friday night.

Nets vs 76ers NBA Odds
Point Spread: Nets -3.0
Moneyline: Nets -150, 76ers +130
O/U Total: 227
After a brutal beatdown by Milwaukee on Monday, the Nets are expected to take the win over a tumultuous 76ers team. Despite their initial win, the 76ers faltered a bit during their opener, and the Nets aren’t the Pelicans.
If Joel Embiid does not deliver, this will be a swift victory for the Nets.
