The NBA introduced Conference Final MVP trophies in 2022, naming the Western Conference trophy after Magic Johnson and the Eastern Conference trophy after Larry Bird.
This provided another opportunity for betting, as the NBA odds for conference finals markets are often more favorable than their team’s odds to win the conference title.
