Sportsbooks For NBA Western Conference and Standings

Sportsbooks For NBA Western Conference

It used to be that the NBA’s Western Conference was chaotic in the most confusing possible way for any basketball bettors. There were so many championship contenders, five or six in any given season, that navigating individual games and futures lines became an impossible chore. But now, thanks to the historic explosion of the Golden State Warriors and Los Angeles Lakers, the West is a bit more predictable. And that also means it is much more profitable from sports betting perspective.

Don’t mistake this as being overly dismissive. There are still many good teams in the West aside from Golden State and Lakers, including the Los Angeles Clippers and Dallas Mavericks. [+]

All can be recognized as championship contenders. And yet, they really aren’t. Such is life against this year’s version of the Lakers and GSW, the Utah Jazz and Phoenix Suns.

The Houston Rockets have underachieved while the Dallas Mavericks and Portland Trail Blazers are in the middle of the pack.

The New Orleans Pelicans have imploded, while the Utah Jazz, Los Angeles Clippers and Denver Nuggets continue to show their worth in the West.

There is enough potential in many of these other teams that single-game moneylines, spreads, overs and unders can be constantly up for grabs.

But that still doesn’t apply to the top teams. They are the most reliable individual game, conference and championship markets.

If you’re not someone who makes their bets early, then ensure you’re circling back here right before placing your wagers. The lines can change throughout the day, which is why it’s best to pull the trigger when they’re first published if possible.

This isn’t the case for every game, of course. If you have injury concerns about a particular matchup and are wondering if a certain player will be suiting up, it is most definitely smart to wait.

The important thing to remember is that you should always check, even double and triple check, the odds just before submitting bets.

How To Make Money Betting On NBA Western Conference

The tricky thing about futures, and even when looking at individual game plays over the long term, is that we're constantly waiting, if expecting, for change—a seismic shift in conference or league power structure. But that's not going to happen in the Western Conference.

The top-tier teams are built to dominate the field for years. Not just a few years, but five or more seasons. They have the right mix of young talent and veteran leadership, and more importantly, they've assembled cultures and business processes that make it impossible to doubt their ability to prolong their conference and championship windows, even when it's time for a transition.

Consider the Lakers and Clippers, who have solid squads and on paper look like the best in the league. Kevin Durant has joined the East, as has James Harden, meaning a lot of talent has moved East. There isn't a team in the league that would say no to this type of player. It will be incredibly difficult to replace these types of players on their previous teams' roster. They know they have superstars that can remain relevant for, conservatively, the next four to six years.

The top teams have built a reputation for themselves. But other teams are beginning to challenge the leaders, Luka Doncic and his Mavericks to name a few. Damien Lillard continues to show his worth as the franchise player at Portland, and the Suns and Utah Jazz seem unstoppable this season. It will be a very exciting offseason in 2021/22, of that you can be sure. But, who will win it?
