Per Bwin.com, the Miami Heat have 2.50 odds to win the NBA Finals even though they haven’t won a title since back in 2006.  The only major concern with the Heat is that they used majority of their cap to get the trio so if one of them gets injured this season, there likely won’t be enough depth and skill on the bench to cover the skill of one of the three.

The Los Angeles Lakers are the next NBA team to beat with 4.75 odds on Bwin.com.  In franchise history, the Lakers have 17 world championships and have secured the past two NBA titles.  The Lakers have a very solid and skilled team all the way around with players like Kobe Bryant as well as Pau Gasol.  Other essential players to the Lakers include Andrew Bynum, Derek Fisher, Ron Artest, and more.  Coach Phil Jackson has 11 NBA Titles to his name (or team) and when he has led his team to win two NBA titles, the third just drops in his lap.

The Orlando Magic are considered the third favorite NBA team to win the 2011 NBA Finals with 11.00 odds. In franchise history for the second time, the Magic reached the NBA Finals in 2009.  This season in the Eastern Conference finals, Boston beat them out for the advance.  Orlando still has skilled key role player Dwight Howard as well as players Jameer Nelson and Rashard Lewis so they have the ability to play ball with the Miami Heat.

The Boston Celtics are at 12.00 odds to win the 2011 NBA Finals.  The Celtics have 17 world championships to their name in addition to the NBA Finals title from 2008.  Boston reached the NBA Finals this year but came up short in the seven games against the Los Angeles Lakers.  As with the other three teams, the Boston Celtics have a strong and skilled starting team including Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen, Rajon Rondo, and Paul Pierce.  Although the Celtics have lost a key player to retirement (Rasheed Wallace), Boston has replaced him with newly signed Jermaine O’Neal.
