The teams

There are a lot of teams in the NBA, and it can be hard to keep track of who is good and who is not. Here is a list of the teams that are currently in the playoffs.

The contenders

In the Eastern Conference, the Indiana Pacers and the Miami Heat are currently leading the way, with the Pacers having a slim one-game lead over the Heat. The two teams have been trading wins back and forth since late December and look to be on a collision course for the Conference Finals. In the Western Conference, it’s a much different story. The Houston Rockets have been on a tear all season long and currently hold a five-game lead over their nearest rival, the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Rockets appear to be destined for the NBA Finals, but it’s still early in the season and anything can happen.

The odds

The Vegas oddsmakers

The oddsmakers in Las Vegas have been putting out their odds for the NBA playoffs for a few months now, and there have been some big changes. The biggest move has been the Golden State Warriors, who are now the favorites to win the title.

The Warriors were +600 (6-1) at the start of the season, but their odds have been getting shorter and shorter as they’ve kept winning. They’re now -160 (1.6-1), which means you would have to bet $160 to win $100.

The Cleveland Cavaliers have also seen their odds improve, as they’ve been on a roll since acquiring LeBron James. They’re now +500 (5-1), up from +1200 (12-1) at the start of the season.

The Houston Rockets have also seen their odds improve, as they’ve been one of the hottest teams in the league lately. They’re now +700 (7-1), up from +1200 (12-1) at the start of the season.

The Oklahoma City Thunder have seen their odds drop, as they’ve struggled since losing Russell Westbrook to injury. They’re now +1500 (15-1), down from +1000 (10-1) at the start of the season.

The online oddsmakers

The online oddsmakers have the Warriors as the runaway favorite to win the 2018-19 NBA championship. They are currently listed at -240, which means you would need to bet $240 on them to win $100. That’s a pretty big investment, but if you think they are going to pull it off again this year it could be worth it. The Cavaliers are next at +400, meaning a $100 bet on them would net you $400 if they won it all.
