LAS VEGAS—The NBA Playoffs are finally here and NBA bettors could not be happier. With the NBA Playoffs comes plenty of playoff betting odds for bettors to take advantage of.
Online sportsbooks not only offer odds on the normal game lines and series lines for the playoffs but there are tons of prop bets as well such as odds on the stage of elimination for certain teams.
Milwaukee Bucks Elimination Odds
Stage Of Elimination – Milwaukee Bucks
- Lose In The Conference Semi-Finals +180
- Lose In First Round Of Playoffs +230
- Lose In The Conference Finals +250
- Lose In The NBA Finals +750
- Win The NBA Championship +900
Starting with the Milwaukee Bucks, they are clearly favored to get bounced in the Eastern Conference Semi-Finals (second round) where they will likely find themselves in a matchup with the Brooklyn Nets. However, the Bucks still have an issue on their hands currently and that is a first-round matchup with the Miami Heat.
This same Heat team dominated the Bucks in the 2020 NBA Playoffs in the bubble and are more than capable of running it back once again in 2021 as they have kept their same toughness. Now, if the Bucks do pull through in the first round, their matchup with the Nets will be their toughest test of the season as they will go head-to-head against a healthy James Harden, Kevin Durant, and Kyrie Irving where they will likely be seen as the underdogs.
With that said, these are two strong cases in which the Bucks could meet their playoff exit in which bettors should be comfortable betting on.
Los Angeles Clippers Elimination Odds
Stage of Elimination - Los Angeles Clippers
- Lose In The Conference Finals +200
- Lose In The Conference Semi-Finals +225
- Lose In First Round Of Playoffs +300
- Win The NBA Championship +550
- Lose In The NBA Finals +750
For those bettors that are looking to save money, they should be steering clear of the Los Angeles Clippers NBA odds of getting the boot in either the Conference Finals, Finals, or even winning the Championship. More money can be made betting on the Clippers to get eliminated in the first or second round of the playoffs.

The strongest argument that can be made which bettors should completely be behind is the fact that the Clippers have never made the Western Conference Finals or past the second round of the NBA Playoffs in the existence of their franchise.
Also, their first-round matchup with the Dallas Mavericks could be a tricky one as the Mavs did take them to six games in the 2020 playoffs. With that, bettors should be foaming at the mouth to bet on them to lose before Conference Finals.
New York Knicks Elimination Odds
Stage of Elimination - New York Knicks
- Lose In First Round Of Playoffs -120
- Lose In The Conference Semi-Finals EVEN
- Lose In The Conference Finals +1000
- Lose In The NBA Finals +7000
- Win The NBA Championship +10000
The Knicks are in a bit of a tricky situation in which bettors can surely take advantage of longer odds. Although they are favored to be eliminated in the first round of the playoffs at the hands of the Atlanta Hawks, the Knicks actually swept the Hawks in their three-game season series.
The Knicks have a major size advantage on the Hawks and also the proud owners of the best defense in the NBA. However, bettors should not be betting past them winning the Semi-Finals as they will likely have a date with the Philadelphia 76ers who swept them in the three games they played.
With everything said and done, this is one of the more profitable NBA Playoff prop bets that are out there and bettors should be jumping on them by all means necessary.
