by Spencer Toth - 10/8/2025
The Oklahoma City Thunder put together one of the most dominant seasons of all time en route to the franchise’s first championship.

by Spencer Toth - 10/8/2025
The New York Knicks have improved their win total in four straight seasons under Tom Thibodeau, and there are realistic expectations that they can do so again this season.

by Spencer Toth - 10/8/2025
The New Orleans Pelicans have completely flipped their roster upside down heading into the 2025-26 season.

by Spencer Toth - 10/8/2025
The Minnesota Timberwolves didn’t win a playoff series from 2005-2023 before ripping off two consecutive Western Conference Finals appearances.

by Spencer Toth - 10/7/2025
The Milwaukee Bucks will be expected to compete for an NBA championship each season as long as they have a healthy Giannis Antetokounmpo on their roster.

2025-26 Miami Heat Predictions and Odds to Win NBA Finals
by Spencer Toth - 10/7/2025
The Miami Heat have managed to surpass preseason expectations in the past, but anything short of a miserable season in Miami would be a real surprise.

2025-26 Memphis Grizzlies Predictions and Odds to Win NBA Finals
by Spencer Toth - 10/7/2025
Three years ago, the Memphis Grizzlies were coming off a second consecutive 2nd place finish in the West, equipped with a young and promising squad. However, a slew of injuries combined with poor postseason results sapped the optimism out of this squad. It appears the Grizzlies once again have a bright future in front of them with a clean injury bill, but they face an uphill battle for a playoff spot in the competitive Western Conference.
2025-26 Los Angeles Lakers Predictions and Odds to Win NBA Finals
by Spencer Toth - 10/6/2025
As long as LeBron James remains on the Lakers roster, an NBA championship will be the primary target every season. Los Angeles has a star-studded roster featuring the greatest player of all time alongside a future Hall of Famer in Luka Doncic. The Lakers have a strong roster that can contend on both ends of the court, but navigating a competitive Western Conference will be no easy task.
2025-26 Los Angeles Clippers Predictions and Odds to Win NBA Finals
by Spencer Toth - 10/2/2025
The Los Angeles Clippers have had an eventful offseason both on and off the court, but it is time for them to lock into the new campaign. There is no shortage of talent in Los Angeles, but the Clippers have been bounced in the first round of the playoffs in three straight seasons.

by Spencer Toth - 10/2/2025
The Indiana Pacers are coming off a historic run to the NBA Finals last season, where they ultimately fell short against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Heading into the new season, what should have been a celebratory atmosphere in Indiana has turned into a bleak outlook. Star player Tyrese Haliburton will miss the entire campaign, leaving the Pacers without a real difference maker on offense.
2025-26 Golden State Warriors Predictions and Odds to Win NBA Finals
by Spencer Toth - 10/2/2025
The Golden State Warriors have been the most dominant team over the last decade. They are desperate to squeeze out one more championship before Steph Curry retires, and they made the offseason moves necessary to stay competitive in the stacked Western Conference. An aging squad will look to lean on its experience against the next generation of superstars.
2025-26 Houston Rockets Predictions and Odds to Win NBA Finals
by Spencer Toth - 10/2/2025
The Houston Rockets finished second behind the Oklahoma City Thunder last season in the Western Conference.

Durant’s arrival dramatically transforms the look of the Rockets this season and blows their championship window wide open.
2025-26 NBA Season Win Totals Predictions with Odds and Expert Betting Picks
by Spencer Toth - 10/1/2025
Betting on NBA win totals can be a very rewarding market if you put in the right research. Unlike single-game betting or even NBA championship bets, season-long win totals are rarely victims of bad beats or unlucky bounces. An injury could certainly disrupt a team’s rhythm, but more often than not, if you put enough of the right research in, you will come out on top.
2025-26 Denver Nuggets Predictions and Odds to Win NBA Finals
by Spencer Toth - 10/1/2025
The Denver Nuggets have had a championship win in the last five years, so it’s hard to criticize their year-over-year results in that span. However, Nikola Jokic is widely considered to be the best player in the league, yet the Nuggets have now been bounced in the second round of the playoffs for the second straight season. A late-season coaching change, combined with a flurry of offseason moves, has dramatically altered the chemistry in Denver.
2025-26 Dallas Mavericks Predictions and Odds to Win NBA Finals
by Spencer Toth - 10/1/2025
The Dallas Mavericks are entering their first full season without Luka Doncic on their roster, and there are few teams with more pressure to deliver than the Mavericks. Dallas got lucky in the draft lottery to select Cooper Flagg with the first overall pick, and they are once again a dangerous team in the Western Conference. There is no shortage of talent in Dallas, but can they put it all together and navigate a crowded Western Conference without their franchise superstar?
2025-26 Detroit Pistons Predictions and Odds to Win NBA Finals
by Spencer Toth - 10/1/2025
The Detroit Pistons won a playoff game for the first time since 2008 last season and have a promising group of prospects ready to usher in the next generation of NBA superstars. After five straight seasons of bottom-three finishes in the Eastern Conference, last season was a refreshing taste of success for the Pistons fanbase. Detroit is one of several emerging contenders in a wide-open Eastern Conference, and could this be the year they finally take the next step towards a deep playoff run?

by Spencer Toth - 9/30/2025
The Cleveland Cavaliers secured the top seed in the Eastern Conference last season for the first time since the LeBron James era. However, after being unable to follow it up with postseason success, the Cavaliers are hungry once again to claim the top spot. This is an incredibly talented team with minimal other polished contenders to deal with in the Eastern Conference.
2025-26 Chicago Bulls Predictions and Odds to Win NBA Finals
by Spencer Toth - 9/29/2025
The Chicago Bulls have finished ninth or tenth in the Eastern Conference in three straight seasons before getting bounced in the play-in tournament. A wide-open Eastern Conference means the Bulls could rise into the postseason with a .500 record, but a lack of offseason moves has left the fan base scratching its heads. Do the Bulls have enough talent in Chicago to make a surprising playoff run, or will it be an 11th straight season without a playoff win in Chicago?

by Spencer Toth - 9/29/2025
The Charlotte Hornets were bitten by the injury bug last season, and there is suddenly optimism brewing with the Hornets fanbase heading into the new season.
