Unbelievable, Vegas always does this with us. They know Lakers can't beat their sub par teams and they jack up the line. If I wasn't such a Laker fanatic, I'd take Portland +10. It's funny, we got a bunch of injuries that's taken out our bench, We're on a 5 game losing streak, yet they give us 10 points to give us the illusion the Lakers should blow out Portland. I don't see this happening at all. The Lakers are on the brink of a blockbuster trade so the players minus Kobe aren't going to be focused because of fear of being traded. Portland is back-2-back tonight, but who cares, b2b's are overrated anyways and they just beat a GOOD Utah team last night. I don't know what to believe anymore. Thoughts?
Well the job of the Vegas linemakers are to balance the bets. There's probably heavy action on the Lakers, so they need to attract more players to take Portland. Laker fans are riding high off Kobe's All Star MVP, PJax has never lost 6 games in a row, so there's a of hype to go with the Lakers in this game.
