Here’s my expert analysis on the top five favorites to win it all this season.
The Golden State Warriors (23-11) are back to being a more decisive prohibitive favorite heading into their Christmas Day showdown having won eight of 10 while further distancing themselves from the drama that caused some serious dysfunction a few weeks back.
Toronto (25-10) has been the best team in the Eastern Conference all season long and some would say, the entire NBA. Well…apparently that Kawhi Leonard is an even bigger superstar than we thought.
Boston (19-13) has fallen way short of their expectations, although it’s still early and they have plenty of time to get their act together.
Oklahoma City (23-11) has gotten some seriously eye-opening play from Paul George this season and they have the look of a legitimate conference finalist choice out West.
After coming up just short of dispatching Golden State last season, James Harden and company are back at t again, even if they don’t look nearly as daunting as they did last season.
