Best NBA Odds and Trends for Every Playoff Game Today (Tuesday, May 21)

The Eastern Conference Finals are upon us!

The No. 1-seeded Boston Celtics will finally be back in action on Tuesday night after a lengthy layoff to take on the No. 6-seeded Indiana Pacers, who knocked out the New York Knicks in Game 7 on Sunday.

It's a quick turnaround for Indiana, who has surprised a ton of people, including oddsmakers, by making the Conference Finals.

Still, the Pacers are huge underdogs in this series against the NBA's best team. During the first two rounds of the playoffs, Indiana and Boston both benefitted from major injuries to their opponents, but luck is always a key part of finding your way into contention for a title.
