Milwaukee Bucks are on the hunt for back-to-back NBA titles, but can Giannis & Co. successfully defend their crown? Brooklyn, both Los Angeles teams and Golden State are leading contenders to deny them.

So who will lift the trophy at the end of the 2021/22 NBA season?

NBA Outright Picks & Betting Tips: Brooklyn Nets


Brooklyn return an outstanding starting five headlined by the big three – Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving and James Harden.

They have also strengthened their bench with the arrivals of Patty Mills, LaMarcus Aldridge and Paul Milsap.

The big question is can they now keep Durant, Irving and Harden healthy?

This trio were only on court at the same time for just 202 minutes during the 2020/21 regular season.

And when the postseason rolled around injuries played a major role in Brooklyn falling short.

If the Nets can avoid the injuries that plagued them last season, this is team that can go all the way to lift the trophy.

There is not a team in the NBA that they cannot outscore on any given night.

NBA Outright Picks & Betting Tips: Los Angeles Lakers


Injuries to star duo LeBron James and Anthony Davis derailed Los Angeles last season.

The Lakers’ response in the offseason was to completely overhaul the roster, with only James, Davis and Talen Horton-Tucker returning.

Russell Westbrook is the marquee addition to a roster that can be described as star-studded.

The problem LA could run into is that many of those stars are in the twilight of their careers and durability could become an issue.

‘Load management’ could be the theme for the Lakers throughout the regular season.

This is a loaded roster and it would not be a shock to see them in the NBA Finals.

However, it would also not be a major surprise to see durability issues ruin their season just like it did last time around.

NBA Outright Picks & Betting Tips: Milwaukee Bucks


Milwaukee are bringing back most of the roster that took them to the NBA Championship last season.

In Giannis Antetokounmpo, Khris Middleton and Jrue Holiday are three of the very best.

But just as important as those three returning is the Bucks once again boasting a ridiculously deep roster.

Milwaukee can rely on their bench to deliver when their star performers are out of the game.

But can this group deny a superstar-laden showdown between Brooklyn and the LA Lakers to end the season?

I believe they can. ‘Defense wins championships’ and there may be no better defensive team in the league than Milwaukee.

This defense led them to glory in 2020/21 and while repeating is not easy, the Bucks could pull it off.

NBA Outright Picks & Betting Tips: Golden State Warriors


Golden State have been missing from the postseason in the past couple of season, but could the Warriors be on their way back?

The return of Klay Thompson will be huge for the Warriors – almost like a new signing!

Thompson has not played a game in two years due to injury but will make his comeback several weeks into the new season.

If he is the player he was before the injury, the Warriors could be back in business when it comes to making playoff appearances.

They still have a prime Stephen Curry. They still have Draymond Green on the roster. They also have solid depth and some exciting rookies.

Could they enjoy a meteoric rise back to the NBA’s summit? Probably not, but they can at least become contenders once again.

NBA Outright Picks & Betting Tips: Los Angeles Clippers


Kawhi Leonard’s ACL injury suffered in last season’s playoffs could sideline him for the entire season.

That is a massive blow for a Los Angeles Clippers team looking to contend for the NBA Championship in 2021/22.

And just to make life more difficult, their regular season schedule for 2021/22 can be described as brutal.

The sportsbooks are taking no chances when it comes to the Clippers’ odds though.

They are not writing them off, but without Leonard it’s difficult to see them denying one of those four teams ahead of them in the betting.

+1400 Utah Jazz
+1600 Phoenix Suns
+1700 Philadelphia 76ers
+1800 Denver Nuggets
+2000 Miami Heat
+2800 Dallas Mavericks
+4000 Atlanta Hawks, Boston Celtics
+5000 New Orleans Pelicans
+6000 Portland Trail Blazers, New York Knicks
+7000 Chicago Bulls
+8000 Toronto Raptors, Memphis Grizzlies, Indiana Pacers
+10000 San Antonio Spurs, Washington Wizards, Charlotte Hornets
+20000 Minnesota Timberwolves, Sacramento Kings
+25000 Oklahoma City Thunder, Orlando Magic
+35000 Cleveland Cavaliers, Detroit Pistons, Houston Rockets

Verdict

Winning back-to-back NBA Championships is a major ask. Milwaukee could achieve that feat though.

In Giannis, Holiday and Middleton they have one of the best three-man groups in the entire NBA.

They have great depth on the roster too, and they boast a defense that can shut down any team.

All of the pieces are in place for sustained success over the next few years, and that sustained success could see them be crowned NBA champions once again.
