There are now 3 second round series tied at 2, with one that has already been completed, so the conference Finals won't be starting until sometime next week. With three underdogs winning in the last couple days to even up series, it's moved the odds in each round even closer together, leaving the playoffs even more wide open than they had already been. Here are the updated odds:
Odds of Reaching Conference Finals
(1) 76ers - 67.3% (-15.8)
(1) Jazz - 60.0% (-18.0)
(3) Bucks - 50.3% (+18.0)
(2) Nets - 49.7% (-18.0)
(4) Clippers - 40.0% (-18.0)
(5) Hawks - 32.7% (+15.8)
Odds of Reaching NBA Finals
(2) Suns - 41.4% (+4.8)

(3) Bucks - 26.8% (+11.2)
(2) Nets - 24.9% (-6.8)
(4) Clippers - 20.1% (+9.1)
(5) Hawks - 10.3% (+5.0)
Odds of Winning Championship
(1) Jazz - 28.3% (-9.7)

Utah is still the overall favorite to win the title, but Phoenix has nearly pulled even with the #1 overall seed, while the Clippers have also pulled almost even with the top seed from the East.
