NBA Playoff Power Shift: Thunder and Spurs Dominate, But Can Celtics, Knicks, and Pistons Shock the East?
Oklahoma City is listed as the favorites to win the NBA Finals (+110) and go back-to-back as champions. Despite Jalen Williams playing only 33 games, plus Alex Caruso (56), and Ajay Mitchell (57) missing more than 20 games — the Thunder have overcome injury concerns and are fully healthy entering the postseason. The addition of Jared McCain has also given this team a spark and another threat off the bench.
2. San Antonio Spurs (62-20, +500)
The biggest competitor to knock off the Thunder has to be the Spurs. Victor Wembanyama and San Antonio aren’t scared of Oklahoma City and took it to the Thunder all season. The Spurs won four out of five meetings with the Thunder, but all those meetings came two-plus months ago.
