[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”5786″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”img-frame-small”][vc_column_text]The regular season has come to an end after 82 games per team that resulted in 16 teams that classified to the Playoffs, of which all but one, the two-time Golden State Warriors, has the ambition to take the place that now the Warriors occupies.
Obviously, the Milwaukee Bucks and the Toronto Raptors, which are the only two teams that had a better record in the campaign than the Warriors, are the best positioned teams to reach the Eastern Conference finals and eventually meet the champions in the Finals of the NBA.
His first-round duels, against the Detroit Pistons and the Orlando Magic, respectively, are affordable and should not be a major complication for the two most consistent frames of the season. However, the Playoffs play at another pace and with other ambitions, so in any case it is convenient to rule out a surprise.
Other sets that could complicate the path of the Bucks and Canadians to a possible NBA Finals are the 76ers of Philadelphia, which have a high potential and could surprise if their stars are aligned on the floor, and the Boston Celtics , which also have rising figures that could return this historic franchise to the site where most of its glorious history has belonged.
On the other hand, things are very clear. Once again, the team led by Steve Kerr is the big favorite to fight for a new title against the Eastern Conference champion. This year, three other teams stayed close to the Warriors in the Western Conference, but the task of triumphing in a series to the winner of four of seven games will not be easy.
The Nuggets of Denver, the Trail Blazers of Portland and the Rockets of Houston start as favorites to face the two-time champion in the Western finals, but curiously are the four seeds for the postseason, the team of James Harden, who are more favored in the bets to achieve victory over Golden State and eventually lift the Larry O’Brien trophy to the Eastern monarch.
As one might suppose, the future bet of the NBA champion favors only Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant and company, with a momio of -223, as they have the experience and talent to impose on any rival now that each match It matters and a defeat could imply that the season has come to an end.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
