Here's a concise breakdown of the current NBA title odds and analysis:

Favorites (+240 to +750)

• Brooklyn Nets (+240)
• Los Angeles Lakers (+350)
• Los Angeles Clippers (+650)
• Utah Jazz (+700)
• Milwaukee Bucks (+750)

The Nets lead as favorites despite limited games with their big three (Durant, Harden, Irving). Lakers follow closely with Davis back and LeBron returning soon. Utah earns "favorite" status with their league-best 44-15 record.

Contenders (+1200 to +6000)

• Philadelphia 76ers (+1200)
• Phoenix Suns (+2000)
• Denver Nuggets (+3500)
• Miami Heat (+3800)
• Dallas Mavericks (+4000)
• Boston Celtics (+5000)
• Portland Trail Blazers (+6000)

The 76ers and Suns stand out as legitimate threats, holding second seeds in their conferences. Denver's odds dropped after Murray's injury, but MVP frontrunner Jokic keeps them relevant.

Longshots (+10000 to +50000) Notable teams include:

• New York Knicks (+10000)
• Atlanta Hawks (+10000)
• Golden State Warriors (+25000)
• Charlotte Hornets (+50000)

The Knicks are surprisingly low despite being the 4-seed with the league's best scoring defense.
