Hey, don't know if you heard — we're giving away $1,000 on Wednesday. For free. All you have to do is complete my gauntlet of prop bets below and beat the field. Since I can't win, here's my advice — take it or fade it, the choice is yours.

1. Who will score the first point for the Sixers?

• Ben Simmons
• Joel Embiid

2. Kawhi Leonard combined steals and blocks: over/under 3.5

Wob's pick: OVER

3. Will Joel Embiid make a 3-pointer in the first half?

Wob's pick: I've learned my lesson pissing this man off. Yes.

8. Will LeBron James score more points vs. Spurs than Kawhi Leonard vs. Sixers?
