Hi Milwaukee Bucks’ fans! I’m doing a cumulative version of the Odds to Stop the Bucks series, and I’ll be ranking each team to show where I think everybody stands. Part of what can be confusing is that when broken down division-by-division, seeing the “best” team in each division can make it seem like this team has a shot at stopping the Bucks compared to other teams, and that’s just not the case. So, I’ll be doing a breakdown of each conference, but here are the rankings, starting with the West.
Western Conference
Golden State (even)
Phoenix (2 to 1)
Memphis (3 to 1)
Denver (5 to 1)
LA Clippers (8 to 1)
Minnesota (8 to 1)
Dallas (15 to 1)
LA Lakers (20 to 1)
New Orleans (30 to 1)
Portland (40 to 1)
Sacramento (150 to 1)
Houston (1,000 to 1)
Oklahoma City (1,000 to 1)
Utah (1,000 to 1)
San Antonio (10,000 to 1)
I know I’m the one who did this, but I see this as a pretty well put together ranking of the conference.
