NBA championship odds for each team in the conference semifinals

A wild first round of the NBA playoffs brought us two sweeps in the East, a series-winning buzzer beater, a blatant failure to foul at the end of a Game 7 and a Golden State Warriors team, down DeMarcus Cousins, taken to six games by the Clippers.

If that wasn't exciting enough, this postseason is bound to get a lot more interesting in the second round.

The conference semifinals began over the weekend with the Celtics and Bucks winning the first games of their respective series handily and the much-anticipated Warriors-Rockets matchup going down to the wire and already stirring up a bit of drama.

While Golden State, of course, remains the favorite to win the title, that gap is slowly but surely closing. Take a look below at each remaining team's odds of winning the 2018-19 NBA championship, according to Vegas Insider.
