Las Vegas SuperBook Releases NBA Title Odds Following Irving-Thomas Trade
- Updated: August 22, 2017
The Cleveland Cavaliers have agreed to trade away point guard Kyrie Irving for Boston Celtics point guard Isaiah Thomas in addition to Jae Crowder, Ante Zizic, and Brooklyn’s 2018 first-round draft pick.
Many are claiming that the Cavs came away with the better end of the bargain, but according to Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook manager Jeff Sherman, nothing has changed at all between the two sides. The odds of winning an NBA championship before and after the trade remain exactly the same.
