Last Updated: 09/30/2022 at 9:42 AM ET
With the NBA Season just around the bend the top odds to hoist the Finals trophy have been revealed. A team led by a new Big 3 carries the best odds coming into the year, while the reigning champions and several other top tier teams are right on their heels.
Los Angeles Clippers +550
Golden State Warriors +600
Boston Celtics +600
Brooklyn Nets +700
Milwaukee Bucks +800
Los Angeles Clippers
The Los Angeles Clippers have emerged as the NBA title favorites after forming a new big 3 with the arrival of John Wall this season. With Wall on the floor next to a healthy Paul George and Kawhi Leonard the Clippers boast a roster unlike anyone else in the league. If the Clippers can mesh together and stay healthy they will win a lot of games and an NBA title could for sure be in their future.
Golden State Warriors
The Golden State Warriors come into the 2022-2023 regular season as the reigning and defending NBA champions. Golden State will return all of their core and will add several young studs within the rotation. Golden State has the veteran leadership and talent to again compete for an NBA title this season. The Warriors will be a threat all year as they try to repeat.
Boston Celtics
The Boston Celtics come into the 2022 season after being the biggest shock in the league a year ago. Boston returns their young core and added two key pieces to the lineup this offseason. Despite losing their coach for all of this season Boston will play well all year as their hunger to return to the finals shines. Boston has the best chance to come out of the Eastern Conference as they will look to finish the job, they let slip away last year.
Brooklyn Nets
The Brooklyn Nets were in headlines all offseason as Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving both looked to leave the team. Now with both KD and Kyrie back Brooklyn will add them with Ben Simmons creating an elite lineup. Brooklyn also added several key players to the rotation making them a top tier team coming into the season. If Brooklyn can put it all together, they will be a big threat down the stretch this year.
Milwaukee Bucks
The Milwaukee Bucks are perhaps the least likely to win the NBA Finals on this list but cannot be counted out. Milwaukee has an elite lineup led by a former two time MVP and will have the ability to make a run at the chip. Giannis will do enough to get Milwaukee in the playoffs and once they make the playoffs anything can happen with the talent and depth within their lineup.
