    What does it mean if it's a trap game? I think lakers could win by more than 1.

    It's 2 now, what do you think? Still seems pretty trappy... Lakers expended a lot of energy last night trying to keep up with OKC.

    lol Vegas is trollin'

    Lakers down by 19 to the Pelicans, 63-44 with 1:33 left in the half.

    You could also say the Rocket @ Mavs spread was a trap too. It was Rockets +1.5 after the Rockets blew out the Mavs on Sunday.

    I still don't get why people fall for it. Too many suckers in this world.

    I didn't want to give my pick for this game, because the Pelicans are r****ded.

    Regardless of the outcome, the Lakers were the completely square side tonight, and it took a fluke 20-0 run in the last 6:47. You better believe Vegas took a beating on this game tonight, and that doesn't happen very often.

    Same here... that situation would've been a play in NFL, but with the NBA there's too many games (and games every night) that makes it easier to just pass. Any thoughts on tonight's games? Knicks getting 8 at home to OKC with an o/u of 206, Denver favored by 4 at home against LAC with an o/u of 215?

    Is Melo playing? 8 points is a lot to give up especially on the road.

    No word yet... I think 8 may be assuming he will play, as they were 4.5 pt home dogs to the Heat, but this time they are coming off a road game last night and OKC will be rested...

    That line at knicks +8 is crazy. They are making people pay heavy if they want to bet okc. I took knicks but it seems like a trap. That line is massive.

    Also with the miami line as an example. They are essentially saying okc is favored by 2.5 vs miami on a neutral court (factoring 1 point for knicks on a back to back). That is crazy. Miami would be favored by 2-3 points on a neutral court against okc
