2023 NBA Champions prediction.

[Yogee]

I would really like to see a new team and I willl be the first one to pick Suns in the poll hehe. They are definitely in a better position now with the addition of Kevin Durrant so I think they are the dark horse in the West this season. Hopefully he remains healthy for majority of the playoffs.

Bucks or Celtics from the East could compete against any team. I'm fine if either of them wins it all.

[Johnyz]

Denver seems at risk here especially if they will face Lakers in the Semis but I'm sure they can still win and go to the finals this time, this is their best time to do all out and I'm predicting them to win the Western conference this time, though Warriors is still a contender but they are not consistent this conference. This is one of the wild standing so far, its actually hard to predict who will win, so place your bet well and enjoy watching as well.

[passwordnow]

I am in these three teams thinking on which of which shall take the ring for this season. Celtics, Warriors and Bucks.
But with thinking of consistency and having individual players contributing a lot to the team, it's proven that Giannis has got his team back. It's crazy to think about this while we're approaching close to it.
Jazz is out already on the playoff contention and that just means that it's getting closer than we think and time is passing fast.

[rhomelmabini]

I'd stay my support for Clippers now that Kawhi is healthy and Westbrook was likely found himself a good company. If PG13 gets back again as healthy I think that they are a good contender for that ring. Well, that was for the West but on the East I think it's either Bucks or the Celtics.

Clippers consistency is good so far and getting a win streak with Westbrook on their team showing that he's a good match to the team, if their teammates will support him then provably we can see more intense Westbrook in the playoffs. But I think they might struggle to achieve championship knowing teams in the west have good upgrades made on free agency so for this they cannot made their life easy on top teams on the west.

I do think he found a team that can cater him and coach Ty Lue was likely getting him more minutes. Yes we will not see a Thunder-like Brody but I think he has that explosiveness once again in the Clippers and seeing him getting those deeps are something he improved compare on what he performs on the Lakers.

I'm still thinking what if Kings was really the Dark Horse of all in the West after all this year? They are the least to talk but they are pretty a good amazing squad and getting at top 3 in the West compare to the last seasons where they end up to the last or not make it at playoffs is a feat unthinkable. They really get that roster pretty good.

[crzy]

Bucks and Warriors will be a great match again for the championship game.
Though anything can happen and its hard to choose on which team to win the championship. Warriors are still doing great, they are still performing well and I think they will defend their title this conference, playing against kings might not be easy but they can overcome this. Bucks have to overcome Celtics as well, they are the big threat in eastern conference.

[goaldigger]

Celtics plays better this conference, I'm confident they will enter the finals though I can't be sure if they can beat Bucks going into the finals as well.
In Western Conference, it will be warriors vs Denver, with this I'll go for warriors since I'm a fan of Steph and the team. Too bad for Lakers placing on a bad standing right now, there's still a chance for them though, let's see if they will play more as as a team. My final predictions will be Warriors to get another ring.

My prediction for this season in NBA is that Golden state warrior still will be the winner of course I am a huge Fan for this team and loyal for them.  Steph curry Thompson and The rest of the team will doing great this season. And also I'm feel bad for the lakers nowadays And I don't think so if what's going on with them why King James cant carry his team I think it's time to look another player who can assist and help king James to carry their team.

[Maslate]

I'm betting on the top favorite now, which is the Bucks. They have proven their consistency in the regular season, and they are healthy with new additions to the team, so I think they'll be even better this time around. I'm excited to see them play in the Finals, but I'm even more excited to see how they'll avenge their loss last ECF against the Celtics.

In the West, it's hard to tell which team will win, but my top three are the Warriors, Nuggets, and Suns.

The golden country warriors were quite a strong team and were ranked 6th in the western regions.
The Golden State Warriors game will take place next Sunday against the Kings.
If you look at the previous matches of these two teams, the Golden State Warriors could easily win with a large enough difference in points, then for the upcoming match, the Golden State Warriors would definitely get an absolute victory.

No wonder you have predictions and big fans of the golden country warriors.
Even though I have no predictions that the Golden State Warrior team will win the NBA this season, I am in awe of their prowess.

[Ziskinberg]

The Warriors are the defending champions, and their current odds are +1100, which is decent and likely to attract many bets. Additionally, it has been reported that Wiggins has returned and is expected to play in the playoffs, which could boost the team's chances of repeating their victory.

Voted for them already.

The odds is really tempting but they already sacrificed a lot of their good bench players which is responsible for their strong second half last year just to maintain their first 5 line up. Current GSW has a very weak defense and can be destroyed by the team with balance offense and defense like Nuggets and Boston.

GSW might have a good run but this year will gonna be a lot harder compared last year due to their current roster and every team on West is very strong with their complete line-up.

Whether or not they are considered underdogs remains to be seen. During the last playoffs, they may not have been the favorites, but they still won the NBA Finals. Therefore, I believe they deserve more respect now as the defending champions. However, I do understand why people are considering them as underdogs, and I like that perspective. The odds have lowered a bit now, as they are currently at +900.

Maybe people only look with the current issue that's why they look GSW as underdog, but they also need to realize the the core of this team is still alive and they are dangerous when they are all healthy. We can also add up the return of Wiggins which can give more fire power to this team so I guess this season they still have a chance to get a championship. Just do hope they will not encounter a major injury because this could affect their championship run this season.

[yazher]

I voted for the Boston Celtics because I think they will probably know how to get back to the NBA finals quickly but I doubt they can pass through that stage because I just remembered that KD is in Phoenix Suns which will go to be the Western Conference champion easily this year if they can play healthy throughout the NBA playoffs. The only problem they have is when they cannot stop the GSW because they are lethal in the NBA playoffs and when they can get past Sacramento Kings quickly, then their next opponent will be in danger.

I still think that Warriors has the best starting five out of any team. I don't care if you have lebron and ad, I don't care if you have ja morant, I don't care if you have murray and the joker, it is just a simple fact that Warriors won so many rings with this roster provides proof that the trio just simply works. Plus, remember that they also have wiggins and poole, as well, which I think should be amazing for them.

People might sleep on them but I had them as my winner at the start of the season, and I keep betting on them again and again, they are just too good to give up. I feel like they may not be the best team overall, their bench is incredibly weak, but their starting five will get a lot of minutes and win games.

In theory the Warriors do, but I just feel like the Bucks are more well rounded and have a better shot than the Warriors due.  I certainly won't count the warriors out, they are sort of at the tail end of a dynasty ..if you can really even call it that, but of course everyone knows what I mean..but I just think they might be a bit old at this point. 

I personally thing the Bucks are going to bring it down.

The Bucks could be a very dominant team, but they have to take care of the Celtics first or maybe the Hawks in case they upset the number 2 team. There are a lot of things happening now, since the Bulls will go up against the Heat. Who knows? This Bulls team could make it to the playoffs and play against the Bucks.

It's too early to predict the champion, as anything can happen, but I agree that the Bucks are a strong team. They are currently the number one favorite to win the championship.

[harizen]

So my question is, what team do you think will win the NBA Championship this year.

Tell us the current betting odds and the reason of your choice, and please don't forget to vote on the poll.

This is tough. Sometimes, unexpected things happened.

Personally for me, now that my favorite team, Dallas Mavericks, was now out of contention and not even able to pass on the play-in, my choice on what team will bring this year's NBA Larry O'Brien championship trophy are; Milwaukee Bucks, Golden State Warriors (Favorites) and Los Angeles Lakers (yes, as Underdog).

Not betting though at the NBA Champion Future as I might focus on "Per Game" and "Series Betting".

[OgNasty]

I’d like to see how the teams compete in the first round before making my prediction, but I think the Warriors are still the team to beat at the moment. Boston and the Bucks are the dominant force in the East but Golden State, Phoenix, and maybe even the Lakers could all have good postseason runs. If Wiggins comes back though, the Warriors have to be the favorites.

[Sanitough]

Just to be unique, I'm betting on the Bulls. This team is decent, they just struggle in the regular season, but look how they played on the road. I have a feeling they could snatch another road game win.

As for their odds to win the championship, they are currently at 500.00, and I think it's worth a try.

Does anyone else think these odds are tempting?

Yes, that is really tempting enough and an odds like that will pay out abundantly if they could snatch the win this year around. But I honestly don't think that they can able to reach that far.

Don't take it wrong but just like the West now, the Easter Conference is also housing some teams that are tough to beat namely Sixers who have been awesome this season and of course we have the Bucks who got a stable balance on their offense and defense, and then there's the Celtics who are trying to bounce back from their defeat in the last Finals.

[LogitechMouse]

Since March, I already put my bet on the Warriors because I believe that they're the team to beat now in the West. I will cite some things with regards to the Warriors that might change your mind if you already put your bet on another team.

- Curry, Thompson, and Poole are combined for 779 three pointers in the regular season. That's the highest by a trio in an NBA history.
- Thompson is the 3rd player in NBA history to get at least 300 three pointers in a single season. The other 2? Curry, and Harden.
- They are the 7th highest defensive rating post-trade deadline. Take note that Wiggins isn't playing most of that time, and GPII only played 7 games.
- Poole, and DiVincenzo as their back-up scorer, Kuminga who is very athletic, and starting to develop himself already, Moody is a big help as well, GPII as a great defender. These are only their bench players.
- Their starting 5 of Curry, Thompson, Green, Wiggins, and Looney are one of the best starting 5 right now in the league.

That are only the some of the things that they achieved this season. I also forgot to mention that experience that they've got as a whole team. On the first round, they will face the top offensive team right now which is the Kings, but they're inexperienced, and we know how experience affects the playoffs right? On the second round, they will face the Grizzlies most probably, and I can't wait for the Warriors to slap them especially Brooks who are calling themselves a "dynasty".

No hate for other teams out there or the users here who put their bets on another team, but I only shared some things from a Warrior fan.
