- Check out the NBA Finals matchup betting odds entering the 2019-20 regular season (via PointsBet).
To no surprise, the Los Angeles Clippers and Milwaukee Bucks are the two favorites to play in the 2020 NBA Finals according to the oddsmakers.
The Los Angeles-Milwaukee matchup is listed at +500, with the Clippers-Sixers and Clippers-Celtics matchups listed at +700.
How historic would a Clippers-Bucks NBA Finals be?
In their 49-year history, the Los Angeles Clippers have never made the NBA Finals, the third-longest drought of any franchise, behind just the Kings and Hawks.
For Milwaukee, it has been 45 seasons since it last made the NBA Finals, doing so back in 1974 in a loss to the Boston Celtics.
The Clippers and Bucks represent two of the four longest active Finals droughts in the NBA entering the 2019-20 season.
The team in the Western Conference right below the Clippers are the Los Angeles Lakers, who are paired with the same three Eastern Conference teams.
