Accuscore: The Global Leader in Sports Forecasting - Profitable betting since 2004.

By Jonathan Lee

Currently the AccuScore computer views the NBA as a race between the top two seeds in each conference:  Oklahoma City and San Antonio in the West and Miami and Chicago in the East.  The old veteran stand-bys and long-time rivals, Boston and Los Angeles, stand as the most likely challengers to the favored four teams.  The young Thunder are going through some struggles at the moment, but are still the clear favorite and are the most likely team to win the title.

NBA championship odds according to AccuScore simulations as of April 16:

Thunder - 24.7%
Bulls - 19.5%
Spurs - 17.9%
Heat - 16.1%
Celtics - 6.2%
Lakers - 4.9%

You can simulate the full NBA playoffs on ESPN.com via the AccuScore Playoff Predictor.
