With the NBA set to resume play on July 31 in Orlando, Vegas has set odds on which of the 22 teams will stay at Disney World. Super convenient, really. The champs won’t have to go anywhere.
“I’m goi…uh…staying here!”
The Oklahoma City Thunder will head to Orlando tied with New Orleans with the 13th-best odds (+9000) to come home a champion. Yes, the same Pelicans team that is currently 10th in the West.
Look at Vegas trying to will Playoff Zion into existence.
Here’s a look at how Bovada sees this entire thing playing out:
| Los Angeles Lakers | +200 |
| Milwaukee Bucks | +275 |
| Los Angeles Clippers | +300 |
| Boston Celtics | +1200 |
| Toronto Raptors | +1400 |
| Houston Rockets | +1500 |
| Denver Nuggets | +2400 |
| Philadelphia 76ers | +2400 |
| Miami Heat | +3300 |
| Dallas Mavericks | +4000 |
| Utah Jazz | +4000 |
| Brooklyn Nets | +5000 |
| Indiana Pacers | +8000 |
| New Orleans Pelicans | +9000 |
| Oklahoma City Thunder | +9000 |
| Portland Trail Blazers | +15000 |
| Memphis Grizzlies | +17500 |
| Orlando Magic | +17500 |
| San Antonio Spurs | +17500 |
| Phoenix Suns | +20000 |
| Sacramento Kings | +25000 |
| Washington Wizards | +30000 |
So, odds aren’t in the Thunder’s favor to win it all — which is fine. Chris Paul and his gang of marauders were 40-24 against the spread before coronavirus ruined basketball.
