1. Milwaukee Bucks
The Milwaukee Bucks are our pick to win the NBA Championship in the 2022/2023 season. They currently have the second-best record in the Eastern Conference at 15-5 and are just a few games behind the Boston Celtics.
The Bucks are playing some incredible basketball and are currently on a 3-game win streak. The Bucks are led by the best player in the NBA, Giannis Antetokounmpo, AKA the Greek Freak. Giannis is a 2-time NBA MVP and has already led the Bucks to NBA Championship glory back in 2021.
After a heartbreaking loss in game 7 to the Boston Celtics, we predict the Bucks to be gunning for revenge. Expect to see a Celtics-Bucks rematch in the playoffs, but this time, Giannis will make the necessary adjustments to take them to the Finals. Then they will most likely meet the Suns or Nuggets in the Finals.
2. Boston Celtics
The Boston Celtics made it all the way to the NBA Finals in 2022 before just losing to the Golden State Warriors. If the Boston Celtics can get past the Milwaukee Bucks, we expect them to be too good for their Western Conference rival and take home the NBA Championship.
The Boston Celtics is having an amazing season and are looking even better than last year. They are on a 5 game-win streak and have the best record in the whole NBA at 18-4. They are led by small forward Jayson Tatum, who, at 24 years old, is already a 3-time All-Star. We can’t wait for a playoff showdown between Giannis and Tatum!
3. Phoenix Suns
The Eastern Conference is stronger than the Western Conference, but anything can happen in the NBA Finals. The Western Conference NBA team with the most chance of beating the Bucks or Celtics is the Phoenix Suns.
The Phoenix Suns have been dominant this season and currently have the best record in the NBA at 15-6. Even more incredible, they are on a 6 game-win streak and virtually unbeatable at home with a 12-1 record.
In the NBA Finals, the Bostic Celtics or Milwaukee Bucks will struggle to beat the Suns in Phoenix. The hometown crowd will be going insane and could definitely swing tight games in the Suns’ favor.
The Suns are led by veteran point guard Chris Paul who, at 37 years old, is still putting up 20 points per game. The Suns also have Devin Booker, who is a machine! Booker is a 3-time All-Star and is improving rapidly. The small forward is averaging over 25 points per game!
4. Dallas Mavericks
The Dallas Mavericks are struggling at the moment with a 10-11 record and are currently in 11th position. However, we expect them to make a surge during the end of the season.
Last season the Dallas Mavericks defeated the Phoenix Suns in the Conference Semifinals before being outclassed by eventual NBA Champions, the Golden State Warriors. If they can once again get past the Suns in the playoffs, then we expect the Mavericks to make it to the NBA Finals.
The Mavericks would be an underdog against the Boston Celtics or the Milwaukee Bucks, but upsets do happen. You can’t count on the Mavs, especially when they have Luka Dončić, who might be one of the most gifted NBA players of all time.
Final Thoughts
The favorite to win the NBA Championship in 2023 is the Milwaukee Bucks. Giannis Antetokounmpo is the best player in the NBA and will lead his team to an NBA Championship for the second time. The only team that can challenge the Bucks in the playoffs is the Celtics. To hedge your bet, you can bet some cash on the Celtics. Comment below who you think will win the NBA Championship in 2023.
