- May 27: A thrilling Boston win in Game 6 has even the series at 3-3. The Celtics are now -368 favorites on average to complete the historic comeback against the Miami Heat, who will own the dubious distinction of becoming the only NBA team to blow a 3-0 lead in a best-of-seven series if they fall on Monday night.
- May 23: After pulling one back in Game 4, the Celtics saw their odds improve from +900 to +230, but still trail Miami 3-1 and need to reel of three more victories to capture their second straight Eastern Conference title.
- May 14: The Celtics are massive -500 favorites to beat the Heat heading into the 2023 Eastern Conference finals.

- Apr. 11: The Bucks (+119) are a step ahead of the Celtics (+167) heading into the postseason, with the 76ers (+443) third and Cavs (+1400) a distant fourth.
- Mar. 6: The gap between the Celtics and Bucks is closing as Milwaukee consolidates its lead atop the conference.
- Jan. 12: The Celtics (+182) and Bucks (+296) remain the top-two favorites, but the Nets have improved from +750 to +356 over the past six weeks.
- Nov. 7: The Eastern Conference title remains a two-horse race early between the Celtics (+245) and Bucks (+245). The Nets have faded to +650, while the Cavs have surged to +800 after racing out to an 8-1 start.
- Sep. 1: After acquiring Donovan Mitchell from the Jazz, Cleveland’s odds have shortened from +4000 all the way to +1600, sixth-best on the board.
- June 27: The opening Eastern Conference title odds see the Celtics and Bucks as +300 co-favorites with the Nets a close third at +400. After the Heat (+450) and 76ers (+600), there is a big drop to the Raptors (+2500) in sixth.
