    Who's favored to win the East now that Kevin Love is out

    I can't find it on 5dimes. I am not asking who you think will win the east. I am asking who the odds on favorite currently is at sportsbooks.

    Before the love injury yday, the cavs in all their dysfunction were still
    The betting fave. I am sure of this

    Jon wall, Kevin love, Gordon Hayward out means the raptors will have 1st in the east reg season. Once playoffs start u can throw it all out the window, LeBron and scrubs will find a way

    Aging Lebron is gonna have to really carry this team now if they want to stay relevant this year...

    Kevin Love is the second best player on that team behind Lebron.. Big injury for the Cavs.. Kevin Love is fragile though, only a matter of time before he got injured.. Not surprising to see..

    Everyone over reacting like usual when cavs have an injury. Lebron doesn't need ANYBODY to make it to the finals. He makes it every year. His team mates are always injured.

    The fact remains, bettors still have to lay for Cleveland for the Conf Championship despite there appearing to be some competition (like Boston).

    Let's see if that shifts to even money or even slightly +odds.

    OK YOU GUYS FORCED ME TO BREAK IT DOWN!!! Listen up....

    Cavs should still be the favorites to win out in the East and I'll tell you why... East is very weak.. Lebron does usually dial it up in the playoffs.. Cavs are pretty deep in the bench as well to survive this Love injury... It's not end game for Cavs that's for sure..

    Besides all that Love will be healthy and back for the playoffs which people are completely forgetting about. This is a hand injury also so Kevin can still keep in basketball shape...http://nba.nbcsports.com/2018/01/30/...-in-left-hand/


    6-8 week listed injure time -

    2018 NBA Playoffs will begin on Saturday
    , April 14

    and ends on Monday
    , May 28

    Exactly. That line isn't budging and if it does go to even, I know first hand that it will get snatched up. I'll take it as well.

    It won't go there.

    I'll get some, but can't get much I'm limited there. It seems like one house adjusted the Cavs to +105 but left the Celtics at +260.

    The another house kept the Cavs at -105, adjusting the Celtics to +275.

    Taking the +105 and the +275 for equal risk and when the Raptors win the East, I'll be kicking myself.

    It will be interesting to see if houses with bigger limits adjust to plus money. I think some houses are protecting and won't get to even.

    At one point, everyone should sync to a more narrow range.

    all those years lebron made finals, he always had KYRIE or DWAYNE WADE, and this year he doesnt have either of them, so it might be different this year, just saying.
