NBA Update

The quarter-finals ended up with three lower-seeded winners, and two teams won Game Sevens on the road.  That's a lot more drama than we usually get at this stage:

EASTERN CONFERENCE:
Boston 4 - 1 Cleveland
New York 3 - 4 Indiana

WESTERN CONFERENCE:
Oklahoma City 2 - 4 Dallas
Denver 3 - 4 Minnesota

That was a disappointing outcome for the Nuggets, who had looked like a Super Team until they lost the last two games of their series.  On the other hand, the draw appears to be opening up for Boston.  The odds to win the NBA Championship now look like this:

Boston:  -160
Minnesota:  +280
Dallas:  +500
Indiana:  +2600
