Who Will Represent The Western Conference In NBA Finals?
- Updated: March 20, 2018
As the NBA regular season winds a lot still has to be decided. Who will make the playoffs in the wild wild west is still up for debate, as the Los Angeles Clippers continue to try and fight for position.
The Houston Rockets currently have the best record in the NBA behind front-runner for the MVP award James Harden. Harden is having a historic season leading the league in scoring, is third in the league in assists, and sixth in the league in steals.
The Houston Rockets are doing a phenomenal campaign rolling into the All-Star break with ten straight wins, however, the Golden State Warriors remain heavily-favored to repeat as Champions this season as we can see in most sportsbooks, with BetOnline given the best value for -160 in case you are looking to wager on them.
Golden State is always a safe pick. They have the greatest shooter of all-time, one of the all-time great scorers, and an elite defender. The problem is Golden State has been banged up of late. Kevin Durant has missed time due to a rib cartilage fracture. Draymond Green left last night’s contest with a pelvic contusion.
Klay Thompson has missed time due to a hand injury and Stephen Curry continues to struggle with ankle injuries.
Can they overcome it all and advance to their fourth straight NBA Finals? Sit back and enjoy the show NBA fans!
