It appears to be Boston vs. everybody. Can the Celtics overtake the field to win their first title in 15 years? See what the odds say.
Now that the defending champions are on the cusp of defeat, is the NBA championship the Celtics' to lose? Denver is in an 0-2 hole at the hands of Minnesota in the Western Conference semifinals, while Boston is up 1-0 in its Eastern Conference semifinals matchup against Cleveland. The Celtics have been at or near the top of the NBA Finals oddsboard all season, and at FanDuel Sportsbook, they are currently favored to win the East and win the NBA title .
At FanDuel, Boston is an -8000 favorite to defeat Cleveland in the East semis, and sits at +110 to sweep the Cavaliers. If Boston does in fact finish off Cleveland in rapid fashion, it will face either the Knicks or Pacers in the East finals. However, on Tuesday's edition of 'The Herd,' Colin Cowherd actually warned against the Celtics beating the Cavs too quickly.
