The Warriors opened this past season at +900 to win the 2021-22 NBA Finals, which were the third-lowest odds of an eventual NBA champion in the past five years. The ‘18-19 Raptors had the lowest odds recently at +1850.
Golden State’s odds shifted again throughout the regular season and in the playoffs. At the start of the postseason, the Warriors were 10/1 (+1000) to win the Finals. However, Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green were able to defy the odds as a No. 3 seed and find themselves back into the winner circle.
Golden State is the odds-on favorite to win the NBA title next season at +562, per Vegas Insider. It wouldn't be a shock to see the Warriors win the NBA title again, as they have their core intact and young players who will play significant roles next season. Below, we’ll look at a couple of our favorite pre-draft, pre-free agency value bets as we head into the offseason.

Denver Nuggets (+1675). The Nuggets could be a tremendous sleeper pick in the West next season to challenge the Warriors for the crown. Denver has the reigning two-time NBA MVP in Nikola Jokic and should have both Jamal Murray (left knee) and Michael Porter Jr. (back), who played a combined nine games.
如果穆雷和小波特还是受伤前的样子,丹佛将是一支不可忽视的力量。掘金队有天赋和深度(亚伦·戈登、威尔·巴顿、蒙特·莫里斯、Bones Hyland)成为西部前三名。
Philadelphia 76ers (+1450). Yes, they’ve struggled to consistently go deep in the playoffs, but with James Harden likely (?) returning next season to play alongside Joel Embiid, the Sixers have a shot to be playing next June.
整整一个赛季(以及休赛期)的哈登和埃姆比德,再加上泰利斯·马克西的出现,足以让76人在艰难的东部联赛中展开激烈的角逐。76人队总经理达里尔·莫雷(DarylMorey)需要升级替补阵容,但任何拥有顶级MVP候选人的球队都必须认真对待。
