Simply amazing. Before the Kevin Garnett deal, the Boston Celtics were given 100:1 odds in Vegas for the 2007-2008 NBA Championship. That put them far behind in the East and to put that in perspective, the LA Clippers are 45:1 odds in the WEST!!! Well, a day after the Garnett deal, the Celtics are easily the favorites in the East at 5:1 to win the entire NBA. Amazing considering that the Cavaliers (who have the exact same team) are 14:1, the Pistons are 11:1, the Heat are 14:1 and the Nets are 40:1. Wow. Apparently Danny Ainge is well liked in Vegas right now. No word if Tim Donaghy was involved in making these odds.
