The Portland Trail Blazers enter the 2012-13 NBA preseason as 100/1 odds to win the 2013 NBA Finals. That puts the Blazers tied with the Utah Jazz for 18th in the NBA. The other three Northwest Division teams -- the Oklahoma City Thunder (9/2), the Denver Nuggets (66/1) and the Minnesota Timberwolves (75/1) -- are all above the Blazers.
The Blazers are 60/1 odds to win the Western Conference (worst in the Northwest Division); Portland's over/under is set at 35.5 wins (lowest among Northwest Division teams).
