Thumbs down Are todays games traps?
Lakers +1.5 +105ml?

New Orleans +5.5 and +200 ML

I mean I love these two teams... but even the under on the lakers line seems risky 210 1/2. While I love the thrill of the gamble i just have the strange feeling of staying away...

Any thoughts?

Obv, all the talk is how home teams are 11-1 so far.

There is ALOT money on the Lakers. The line has dropped ALOT so I am taking Jazz.

Hoping more people dump money on the lakers and get even a better line with the jazz still at -1.5 though

Utah doesn't lose at home. Take Utah and you will be fine. Dn't let the Lakers getting action scar you.


no trap, only a trap if u get barreled in on laker mannia

After the detroit debacle and the line not moving at my book I just decided Jazz
-125 for 1.5 units

Good bet?

Not a huge NBA guy, but I know money is to be made on this game somewhere.

Could be, there was a money line last laker game to trap you, now the money lines off for me, they know the lakers are going to whoop up o some jazz and they dont want you to capitolize. You wanna know a trap? How bout the celtics, the worst road team in the playoffs for sure. How can they totally dominate lebron and then take a plane go to clevland and play worse then a varsity high school squad. What a disgrace they really do suck
