NBA Championship Lines

Overview

The NBA Finals is the championship series that closes the NBA season. The NBA Finals take place each spring, and finishes up with the championship occurring in late June or early July. The NBA Finals is a best of five series, similar to the rest of the series in the playoffs, meaning that the championship never has a set date.

Betting on the NBA Finals is arguably one of the most bet on NBA wagers, as it’s the biggest event of the NBA calendar year. Speculation begins to grow when the season begins, and we start posting NBA Finals Championship futures odds early, giving you plenty of time to try your hand at picking the winner of the NBA Finals long before the championship.

As soon as the NBA Finals wraps up and a team is awarded the honor, there will be early odds released for the following season. These odds will likely feature the winning team and the runner up high up on the list, with potential to repeat as they are the current strongest team in the league. Once the NBA Draft occurs and trades process throughout the off-season, you will see the odds change as players are acquired and team dynamics change.

HOW TO BET ON NBA CHAMPIONSHIP

When looking at these NBA Finals odds, you have a huge selection of teams with plus money odds (unless there is a huge favorite, in that case you will see negative odds), and you can place some money on your favorite team or the team you think has the best chance of winning the NBA Finals that year. Your odds of choosing the correct team are 30/1, so there is some big risk when placing these wagers.

Aside from Futures, you can place plenty of other wagers on the NBA Finals Championship series. As we mentioned, the winner is crowned after a best of five series, so you have five opportunities to bet on a range of moneylines, totals and point spreads, as well as a huge variety of props and specials.

There are huge benefits to having the championship decided in a series, not a one-and-done game like the Super Bowl. You will find so many betting options throughout the championship series as well as betting on futures odds.

With moneyline odds, you are just betting on the winner of a single NBA Finals game itself, point spreads, which give the underdog team a bit of a head start before the game begins – meaning they either have to win or lose by less than the spread amount, and totals which is an over/under on the total score of both teams combined.

Betting on the NBA Finals can be really fun, but can be riskier than most, as it’s the top two teams in the league and the competition will be fierce. The games are usually tight and you won’t find huge underdogs or favorites when betting on these games. The NBA is unique because there are more dynasty teams than any other league – teams are smaller with rosters of superstar talent.

If you think you’re ready to bet on the NBA Finals, you can head over to the sportsbook and start placing your futures wagers at least, and when the NBA Finals roll around, you can place your game wagers.
