The Chicago Bulls, Miami Heat and Portland Trailblazers were sitting with the best records in the NBA after just two weeks of play.

The Bulls and Heat were both listed with 6-1 records while Portland came in at 4-1 as of January 4, 2012.

The Heat promised a payout of just better than even odds while the Bulls would pay out $500 for every $100 bet to win the 2012 NBA Championship.

It’s still very early in the season but Portland would pay out $4000 for every $100 bet if they were to win the 2012 NBA Championship.

Aside from those three, no other NBA team has just a single loss.
