Here is what to know about the NBA title oddsboard:

West Update: The two teams favored to win the title both reside in the Western Conference: OKC and San Antonio. The Thunder swept the Suns in Round 1 and the Spurs gave up just a single game to Portland. Now, OKC gets L.A., which it swept in the regular season, and San Antonio gets a banged-up Minnesota, which the Spurs actually lost to in the regular-season series. A few uncertainties still exist in each series. Will Anthony Edwards be healthy enough to take the floor for the Wolves? How effective can he be? Will Luka Dončić return in time to impact the OKC-L.A. series? What about Jalen Williams returning for the Thunder? If the odds hold true — the Thunder are favored to sweep the Lakers and the Spurs are favored to sweep the Wolves — we will be staring at an OKC-San Antonio Western Conference finals. 

East Update: The third, fourth and fifth teams on the title oddsboard reside in the East: New York, Cleveland and Detroit, respectively. New York was the only Eastern Conference team to make it out of the first round in fewer than seven games, as the Pistons, Cavs and 76ers needed do-or-die Game 7 wins to move on. Arguably the most impressive team of the bunch is the one closest to the bottom of the oddsboard: 7-seed Philadelphia. It overcame 2-seed Boston despite being down 3-1, winning Games 5 and 7 on the Celtics’ home floor. While Cleveland simply won four home games on its way to advancing, the top-seeded Pistons also trailed 3-1 against Orlando, before winning the final three contests of the series. New York is favored to beat Philly in five and Detroit is favored to beat Cleveland in seven.
