Odds to win the 2007/2008 NBA Eastern Conference The Boston Celtics won 92-85 against the Pistons at Detroit on January 5th and this victory prompted the odds makers to rethink the betting lines on the NBA Eastern Conference Championship. Now the Boston Celtics have become the clear favorite to win the Eastern Conference, listed with odds 1/2 to win at the online bookmaker Bodog Sports.
