    Boston Price To Win It Again next year?
    I say range between +270 to +310

    They are still going to be real good with some young strong supporting cast players in the mix.

        I think because they're in the East, anything +250 or better would be a decent price. Hard to see any East teams knocking them off, then they should be about even money in the finals. But, it depends how some other rosters shake out(Cleveland, Chicago, Detroit).

        Allen may fall off a bit, but Rondo, Perk, Powe, Davis, Allen(Tony) should all get markedly better.

          Actually +250 would be a pretty terrible price, but I personally think they have a very good shot of repeating so that's the price that if you gave me without any out options(No other betting on games/series along the way), that's the price at which I'd really have to think about which side I wanted.

            I think if I could get +300 or better I'd put something on it. Wouldn't want to tie up a lot of capital for a whole year; but maybe just throw a hundred on it or something. Ray Allen looked pretty damn youthful in the finals for a guy with two bad knees...

              Uh, Cleveland nearly beat them this year. They will be better, including King Bron Bron. I see Cleveland taking the East next year.

                    And so did the hawks? Celtics learned to play well on the road starting in Detroit, and will be unstoppable in the playoffs next year. Would of won in 5 but wanted it ended in Boston for all that celebration as appose to being booed off.

                      The reason the price will not get any better than perhaps 3-1 is because the Celtics are presumed to have the home court advantage throughout. If the Spurs, Lakers or Phoenix reload/get younger, maybe, just maybe you will be able to get about 5-1, if one of those teams has the best record or gets off to a good start.

                        I got basically 2-1 odda right before the finals started so who knows what itll be going into next year. Not much above the 3-1 mark though.

                            They barely got past Atlanta & Cleveland but yes they are the clear favorites to win the Eastern Conference again.

                              repeating in the NBA in this day and age is extremely difficult, i would not bank on them doing it again (see spurs the past decade, could not go back to back), it is really tough. lakers and bulls did it because of shaq and mj, 2 dominant players, houston had hakeem. boston will be challenged by orlando and cleveland next season, maybe another team as well, and the west will be much better next season than this yr, esp if bynum comes back healthy for the lakers

                                  If I can get 5-1 before the season starts next year I am all over them. Also, if I can get 10-1 on the Spurs to win the West, ditto. I like the Spurs to come back with a vengence and some new younger players who can play and were born in the 80's or 90's.

                                        They will be beat by Cleveland or Detroit in the 2nd or 3rd round.
