Odds to Win NBA Southwest Division

Unlike in other NBA divisions in both the Eastern and Western Conference, there really isn’t a clear team poised to take the Southwest Division this season. Both the Houston Rockets and Dallas Mavericks are playing very well and the Memphis Grizzlies aren’t that bad either. Below we have a look at each of the teams in the division:

• Dallas Mavericks – the Mavericks seem to be a good position to make it to the playoffs this season. They’ll need to push to take the division title though. If Luka Dončić continues with his current form, the team really does have a chance taking it, so these may be some good odds to get in on.
• Houston Rockets – the Rockets are currently favoured to take the title for the third consecutive year. James Harden continues to show why he is considered one of the best players in the league. He and the rest of the Rockets will need to continue to push if they are to edge out state rivals the Mavericks. We think they’ll probably be able to do it.
• Memphis Grizzlies – the Grizzlies have been rather consistent with their record this season. While this may be good enough to nab a playoff spot, they really are going to have to push if they are to take their first ever division title this season. We don’t think that they have it in them to do so just yet.
• New Orleans Pelicans – the Pelicans have only a single division title to their name. They haven’t been playing very well this season, so it’s pretty easy to call this one. Don’t bet on them if you want to win.
• San Antonio Spurs – while the Spurs have a good history in the league and have won the most division titles in the Southwest division, they do not have a good team this year. They could maybe push for a playoff spot and push their ranking on the Eastern Conference table but even that is going to take a lot of drive and luck, which the team does not seem to have at the moment.

History of the NBA Southwest Division

The NBA’s Southwest Division was formed in 2004 after the Charlotte Hornets were added to the league. Inaugural members of the division the Houston Rockets, Dallas Mavericks, Memphis Grizzlies, New Orleans Pelicans and San Antonio Spurs. All of these teams still compete in the division even if the Pelicans have gone through a series of name changes since that time.

The division is largely considered to be one of the most competitive in the Western Conference with all three teams based in Texas (Spurs, Mavericks and Rockets) having previously won the NBA Championship. As mentioned above in the betting statistics, more than three teams from the division regularly make it through to the playoffs.

Although it has been a few years since a team from the Southwest Division has won either a Conference title or NBA Championship, it seems that some teams may be on the up. The Mavericks and the Rockets in particular seem to be on the up. With the fall of the Golden State Warriors, it seems that James Harden may soon get his first NBA Championship win.
