There’s plenty to like about the way the tournament is shaping up this year and we could have a situation where it goes right down to the wire once again for the finals.

Right now, punters will find the Brooklyn Nets trading as the outright favourites to win the NBA Championships and it will definitely set off scenes of celebration in New York and beyond if they are able to bring another title back to the Big Apple.
Punters will find a price of around 40/17 and that’s not bad value if you truly expect them to get better as the tournament goes on. They will have to deal with a few talented sides to get themselves to the final, but if they play to their best then you reckon the odds are always in your favour.
The LA Lakers are the next best-priced side and you can back them at a solid listing of around 9/2 with several top bookmakers. While Lebron James and co, didn’t have the dominating performances they showed off last year throughout much of this season, they remain a force to be reckoned with and their experience will show off as the playoffs continue.
The Utah Jazz have been a benchmark side for much of the NBA season and they are playing some quality basketball and proving hard to beat - even for the best teams. You’ll find them attractively priced around a 15/2 margin right now with several top bookmakers.
The LA Clippers are also in the mix at an 8/1 price whiel the Milwaukee Bucks are no longer the major force they have been over the past few seasons with a price of around 43/5 right now. The Chicago Bulls and Philadelphia 76ers can both be backed around 12/1.
