<p>After taking a 2-0 series lead over the Phoenix Suns, the Denver Nuggets are now Western Conference favorites. A matchup with East favorite Boston has been bet down from +490 to +230.</p>
<h3><strong>2. Boston Celtics vs. Golden State Warriors +490 (Last week: +700)</strong> </h3>
<p>The Celtics and Golden State Warriors split the first two games of their respective second-round series, but the odds of a rematch of last year&#8217;s NBA Finals have risen from +700 to +490. </p>

<h3><strong>5. Boston Celtics vs. Phoenix Suns +1200 (Last week: +310)</strong></h3>

<h3><strong>7. Philadelphia 76ers vs. Los Angeles Lakers +1400 (Last week: +2100)</strong></h3>
<p>Two of the NBA&#8217;s iconic franchises facing off for the championship wouldn&#8217;t be bad, especially with the star power present. The 76ers colliding with the Lakers has skyrocketed from +2100 to +1400. </p>
<h3><strong>8. (Tie) Miami Heat vs. Denver Nuggets +1600 (Last week: Unranked in Top Ten)</strong></h3>
<p>The Miami Heat make their only appearance on this list against the Western Conference favorite Nuggets. Miami looks like a real threat led by <a href="https://www.numberfire.com/nba/players/jimmy-butler">Jimmy Butler</a>, which has this matchup listed at +1600.</p>
