The odds for winning the championship next season are released, Hu Yongdu is on the list, Thunder is the first, and the Clippers are declining again

1:45am, 8 June 2025Basketball

Good guy! Before the finals ended, the US media updated the ranking of the probability of winning next season. Is this the finals really not popular? However, it is reported that the number of G1 online viewers in this year's finals is 200,000 more than last year's. It can be seen that the popularity is still OK, and the first game ended with a final victory, which can be said to be very frequent.

Okay, let's go back to the topic, look at the odds of winning the top ten championships in the 2025-26 season given by the US media. The details are as follows:

1. The Thunder (+225)

should still be no controversy. Although many people say that the Thunder will be disbanded if they don't win the championship this season, it should not be next year. Jewe's contract can still be used, and Alexander's maximum salary still has time. Therefore, it is highly likely that the Thunder will still be the original team next season. As long as there are no major injuries, they will still be the best team in the league.

2. Pacers (+800)

After all, they are the champions of the East and West this year. Pacers also have opportunities this year. Carlisle's strategy and Halliburton's magic make this team full of infinite possibilities. This year is really likely to be the Pacers Year, and I look forward to them reaching the peak of this year.

3. The Knicks (+900)

feels a little taller! Although the Knicks and the Pacers played back and forth in the Eastern Conference Finals, they felt that they were still weaker than the Western Conference team. Although many people say they want to trade Towns and Bridges, there is a high probability that the lineup will not change much. If Malone joins the coach and gets the sixth man, the Knicks will have a chance, right?

4. The Cavaliers and Timberwolves (+1000)

Cavaliers are definitely disappointing. The regular season dragons become worms in the playoffs, and they need to trade. Garland's role is not very important in the playoffs. As for the Timberwolves, it depends on whether they can get Durant! Maybe Huazi will grow up a little longer, otherwise it will still not work. Although he has reached the Western Conference Final this year, he really has no power to fight back against the Thunder.

6. The Nuggets (+1200)

don't say anything, it's definitely what Jokic gives. If you can fight the Thunder until the tiebreak this year, just say that Jokic is not good or not.

7. Rockets (+1400)

Rockets have seen young talents this season, such as Amen, Green, and Shin Kyung, but they are indeed a bit disappointed when they are eliminated in the first round of the playoffs. Soha Durant or letters! Otherwise, where would the opportunity come from?

8. The Celtics and Lakers (+1600)

The Celtics will definitely have no chance next season. Tatum will be reimbursed for the season, and Brown will definitely be unable to support it. Moreover, White, Holiday, and Platinum may be traded. As for the Lakers' situation, it depends on how a center can be traded. Doncic has successfully lost weight and should play at an MVP level next season, but James is one year older and winning the championship... It's a bit far away!

10. Do Warriors and Spurs (+2000)

look down on the Warriors too much? Although he was eliminated by the Timberwolves this year, there are also reasons why Curry was injured and did not play. Butler has proved that he is suitable for this Warriors. If he adjusts the lineup in the offseason, there is still a big deal. The Spurs don’t know if there is a deal in the offseason, but Paul is definitely leaving. Wenban will definitely return next season. How far can the combination with Fox go? Let’s wait and see!

12. Mavericks (+2200)

Personally, I think it's a bit low. As long as the Mavericks have healthy results next season, Davis is still capable. With the No. 1 pick Flag, if I can hold on until Irving returns in March 2026, who dares to say that he can be sure to eat the Mavericks?

13. Clippers (+3000)

OK! My Cardin combination has been regarded as a disgrace again! How to defend it? ...I hope Brother Deng will be harder in the playoffs! With the health card, can Powell be replaced with a power forward in the offseason?

I won't go into details next. 14 is the 76ers, 15 is the Magic, 16 is the Grizzlies, 17 is the Pistons and Bucks, 19 is the Suns, 20 Kings, 21 Heat, Pelicans and Raptors, 24 Red Bulls, 25 Nets, 26 Hornets, Trail Blazers, Jazz, and 29 Wizards.

Why there are only 29 teams? We don’t know why the Hawks are not on the list. Is it missing?

Of course, it’s enough for everyone to enjoy watching it. There will definitely be a big wave of trades in the offseason. Big fish like Durant and the letters are enough to change a team.

What do you think of this championship list? Who is overrated? Who is underestimated?
