The 2013/14 season of NBA basketball does not actually begin until the 29th of October, but those who don’t just love watching it, but also enjoy basketball betting, have been going to online and land-based bookmakers for weeks now to put bets on which team will win the Championship.  Obviously it is harder to predict this with any real degree of accuracy before any matches have been played, but placing outright bets early is a sports betting tradition. Therefore it is worth looking at some of the teams that could be a decent bet for the 2013/14 NBA title.

Most fans will not be surprised to learn that the bookies are favouring current title holders Miami Heat to win again next year, and it is possible to get odds as low as 2/1 on them for the title. Most of those who fancy a bet on the Heat – and they look strong again with players like LeBron – will probably prefer them at 9/4 though.  None of the sports betting sites expect it to be a walkover for the Heat though, as Oklahoma City Thunder, Brooklyn Nets, San Antonio Spurs and Chicago Bulls also have low odds (between 12-14/1).  This demonstrates why it could be smarter to wait and bet when the action starts and play casino games such as Slam Dunk at www.gamingclub.co.uk  in the meantime.

Slam Dunk, a slots game which features nine pay lines and five reels, is one of the many sporting themed slots at casino sites these days, but for basketball fans it is one of the best.  From the player, jersey, cheerleader and basketball reel icons to the basketball court backdrop, it is NBA all the way.  The jersey wild icon is numbered 23, which was Michael Jordan’s number, and as it boosts your odds of a payout by taking the place of other icons needed to provide winning reels, it’s as handy as Jordan himself.  Another great thing about Slam Dunk is that you can take it to NBA games and play nowadays, thanks to the apps available from mobile casino web pages.
