NBA Basketball Betting Odds - 2006 NCAA and NBA Odds

Only a few weeks into the NBA regular season and there is more excitement surrounding players and their antics (Ron Artest surely comes to mind) than there is on the teams themselves, thus making for some interesting NBA basketball betting odds adjustments. This is primarily due to the lack of performance featured by those teams that normally inspire us to watch the NBA. Instead, we have surprise teams like the Seattle Supersonics, Phoenix Suns and Orlando Magic looking impressive early on.

The NBA betting season is coming to an end, check out the 2009 NBA Championship Betting Odds today!

Early NBA basketball odds for some of these teams provided excellent value prior to the season's start and continue to do so today, albeit the payout potential may not be quite as lucrative.

Bodog, for example, lists Seattle at 35 to 1 odds, meaning for every $1 bet you can win $35 or for every $100 bet you can win $3500. That is a pretty enticing payout potential, and considering Seattle has thus far had only one loss and this is anybody's season.....now is a better time than any to take part in this top NBA basketball betting odds offering. It won't last!

Phoenix, also playing well, has basketball betting odds of 12 to 1. This team is looking quite good in a very tough conference. But in reality only Dallas and San Antonio are really meeting up to expectations in the West this early in the season. Dallas features payout odds of 9 to 1 while favored to win San Antonio has odds of 5 to 2.

March Madness National Championship Betting Odds

The Orlando Magic with their 45 to 1 odds should be considered since the Eastern Conference is really starting to come unraveled, with the championship Detroit team barely at .500 and Indiana suffering from injuries and long term suspensions.

1800-Sports also likes the Washington Wizards early on. An impressive hard-working squad should help coach Eddie Jordan come into his own. Though it doesn't seem likely they will make it into the Championship, anything is possible (look at the Nets a few years back) and with NBA basketball betting odds of 90 to 1 and an above .500 record, why not throw $100 down to win $9000? Of course once in the Finals they'll have to get past what we presume will be a much tougher Western team, but even the West is not looking all that impressive right now.

The most likely candidate in the East to go all the way is no doubt Miami with NBA basketball odds of 7 to 1. That is still impressive value considering a $100 bet will yield $700.
