Your NBA Champion this season?

[Yamifoud]

Its good to see Warriors and Celtics play in the NBA Finals as well . Warriors one of the best team offensively and Celtics one of the best teams defensively.

The majority had thought to see them on the final.
Keeping both team members healthy and with no injuries will certainly lead both of them to the final. I can just imagine how the last season's finals ended very crucial as both of the top players were unable to play because of injuries. If this may happen this season again, this gives a higher chance for GSW to win. More 3's shoots coming from GSW rookies is their advantage...

Warriors is still my bet...

Before that, we might gonna see a blockbuster series in the Eastern Conference Finals with the Boston Celtics vs the Miami Heat which will gonna be the best Playoff series we will ever have. That if they gonna easily beat their opponent in the next round which is not an easy game for both of them and each of them is one win away from the second round of the playoff.

I'll share right here a post that - created in another topic!!

I confess... this first round of the playoffs is surprising me, because the teams that I thought could be champions had a terrible performance!

Is it too early to bet that the Celtics, Warriors, maybe Miami Heat can be the champions of this season in the NBA!!?

It was really surprising because the teams that we have thought that could be more competitive turns out to be dominated by the ones who aren't showing their strengths in the regular season. As an example, it's the Nets who is one of the favorites to win the season against the Celtics who clinched just few weeks before the regular season ends and now that they are facing each other, no one have saw it coming that this would be the situation of the Nets.

I agree about the Celtics and Warriors to win this season but for Miami Heat? I'll for that team for now.

Before the start of the playoffs I was really rooting for Philadelphia 76ers to finally grab that Larry O'Brien trophy. Embiid and Harden accompanied with solid young players and some veterans. Many of their guys are armed with deep playoffs experiences. I think Miami, Phoenix and the young Grizzlies cannot beat the 76ers. Probably only Boston and Milwaukee can match them. I was supposed to bet on Philly and Bucks but I am regularly betting my balances so I cannot stuck them for too long.

Yeah, I believe Philadelpia has chance to win ECF since Boston and Milwaukee will be having a close match on the next round while they only face Miami which is beatable by them considering how strong they are right now. The west already weakens the power house team Suns due to absence of Booker. I believe GSW will reign WCF this time around and possibly get the championship.

I'm a GSW fan the moment SC comes back again.

This will be a challenge to the Brooklyn Nets if they can recover this huge deficit, as far as history tells, there's no team that have recovered from that huge deficit.

That's the end of the journey for the Brooklyn Nets. Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown are both unstoppable once they find their respective rhythm. They really improved their shooting that even if it's properly defended, they are making it. Boston Celtics now know how to slow down Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. Tatum is the one guarding Kyrie and if ever this guy is able to pass Tatum's defense, there's Marcus Smart protecting the shaded area.

The Nets gambling to get superstars Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant didn't paid well. That's might not be the key for the franchise to get the championship.

It's not yet the end of their journey as they have 1 last chance before they get eliminated, that will be a tough challenge for the Nets but I know they will make it worth it. The talents of Boston is undeniably impressive since the playoffs season have commenced, that 3-0 run was definitely a feat that they achieved against the Nets. They should work on their defense more and put some proper players for that job because their duo is already guarded.

Tatum is the one guarding Kyrie and if ever this guy is able to pass Tatum's defense, there's Marcus Smart protecting the shaded area.

It is Kevin Durant who's guarded by Jayson Tatum and Irving by Marcus Smart.

Honestly the heat look like the most dominant team in the East.  Yeah they are playing the Hawks so that needs to be taken into consideration but they are stomping them.  They match up wierd versus the Bucks but who doesn't with giannis.  If I had to guess it will be a heat/Bucks ECF.  Just not sold on the sixers.  If someone figures out how to play them without fouling then they will take them out.

Exactly @freedomgo!!
I believe that.. some NBA fans have created a lot of expectation with some teams (including me), for example Nets and Lakers! It never crossed my mind and these teams could have this terrible performance!!

I believe that the teams I mentioned above may have a decent chance of being NBA champions, or at least reaching the conference finals!!

[harizen]

Devin Booker will just miss some games in the first round. Not the whole playoffs. If ever they reached the Western Conference Finals, there's a high chance that he can play. There's still lots of time. I don't see how Western Conference becomes weakened because of that.

I also don't consider Golden State Warriors as the team to beat in the West or even get the NBA Championship. I hope GSW fans won't be mad at me. Yes, they are playing well and there is no doubt about that. It's just that if some teams are able to shut down their 3 key players, they will struggle. Different from the before Warriors that even Curry or Thompson is on the worst night, there are lots of options for them to cover their offense.

Well then, we are just speculating here. Much better that while we are doing analysis, others have already placed their bet.

I am also Eyeing for Warriors now , because they completely showing the Champion Heart now, not like in the past conference in which they are being behind  , Now the looks of taking back the Trophy Back to Golden state is knocking on our door.
 I have different choice recently but now? maybe you are right that its better to risk in more possible winner than those who are in the edge of losing the chance .

I agree with this. With their bad performance last season, they successfully and still trying to stood up maintaining their current good performance. They were bombarded with bandwagons in the past. But now I see legit support for the GSW and I admit I'm looking forward to their win as well. But the Nuggets recently are being so good as well so this might change. I just hope that the GSW wouldn't choke at their tomorrow's game.

Yeah , actually i watch back their last conference games and watch theirs this present to compare the statistics and scoring specially the plays they have made and yes, improvement really on the team now.
they are showing dominance once again like what they did when they first took the trophy years back .
now if this is a great come back? lets give the credit to the whole team and specially to Steve Kerr .

Kerr always deserves to be one of the best coaches in the NBA.

The Warriors are still a great team despite Durant leaving them, Durant's team was swept by the Celtics but the Warriors are still intact and have a great chance of winning the series against the Nuggets, and not only that, they are also the favorite to win now. The first round will be over in game 5 for sure .

They failed last season due to Klay's injury and Durant was out, now they will make sure to get the trophy again because even if they lose Durant, they still have Poole who has a good impact on the team. At least, this team is well balance now in terms of defense and offense and if you are playing with the Warriors, you cannot sleep on them because they are the greatest shooters in the NBA.

It's not that we created a lot of expectation, those teams you've mentioned are the ones who created that hope we expecting because their line-up is crazy especially the Lakers who built as superteam but got the opposite result, actually two teams of the Los Angeles didn't manage to get in the playoffs. Now we have the Nets who have been dominating the league since the season started because of their Big Three that at the end became the Big Upset.

Wait, what? Boston Celtis vs Miami Heat? I think that was way too advance to even discuss, they are about the face the Milwaukee Bucks first in the next elimination who is also the champion last season. I don't think that Giannis and his team will give the Celtics an easy pass on this one because they are also working their way to be in the finals and maybe be the champion again.

Same as the Miami Heat, even if they advance there's a very high chance that they face the 76ers along the way. It's still a long way to go before we can those teams you've mentioned.

Too early for that, Bucks and Sixers are still a big threat agree what the defending champ will not just give an easy pass

they will show that they can continue chasing another title. While if ever Sixers finished the series against the Hawks, that's also a heavy

competitors for the Heat. Unless they will again choke and lost this opportunities the way they've lost it from the Hawks last season.

Lots of things can happen both from the east and west. Changes will keep coming, especially with the odd.

That's right, we cannot ascertain the outcome but we gamblers will have to choose the team that we believe will win the championship. The Warriors is the top favorite for a reason, they have been playing an impressive basketball in the first round, and the odds might move if they'll finish the Nuggets tomorrow and win by a huge margin.

Bucks? Yes they are still a threat right now in the East because of their roster and they are the defending champs right now. I think even though Middleton isn't playing because of injuries, the team can still win because they still have Giannis and other good supporting players.

Sixers? Yes but when I saw that Embiid had a ligament injury, I removed them in my list of winners in the Eastern Conference. Just imagine the Sixers without Embiid. Can Harden carry the team? Obviously not. Who can step up if the worst happens in the Sixers which is Embiid's injury getting worse? Embiid said though that he will play thru it but it might be a problem with his performance all throughout the playoffs. Lets also add that they have a coach that is choking.. Ooops .

I like the Bucks though to win but I will bet on Celtics on this one though I agree that saying Celtics Vs. Heat in the ECF at this time is too early to tell.

NETS TO WIN
NBA eastern winner - 46
NBA first round against Celtics - 15
NBA winner = 67

Turns out it's just a TRAP> Bad Nets, does not even win at least one game, I don't know if I could still trust them next season, bye for them for now.

Anyway, let's focus on the current standing, odds are not displaying yet because there's an ongoing game, let's see after the 2 games today.
I check last night, Warriors are still the favorite, so it's good for the backers like me.

After the last night's game where the Golden State Warriors and Milwaukee Bucks now advanced to their respective Conference Semi-Finals here are the updated odds on some Favorites: (odds may changed from time to time)

Golden State Warriors @ 3.90
Phoenix Suns @ 4.85
Boston Celtics @ 5
Miami Heat @6
Milwaukee Bucks @ 7.55

Boston Celtics now become @5 to win the NBA Finals coming from @10. The Warriors from @8 to @3.90. Better act right away to bet on your Favorites as continuous winning of these teams will have an effect of lowering their odds from time to time.

If I would act now, I would rather take the Bucks because IMO they are undervalued. They don't have Middleton but look how they dominated the Bulls, so I think they deserve to have at least 5.00 odds, but who am I to complain, I'll just probably take it.
