    Why are the Warriors only -3 at home?

    Talk about a trap line. If it isn't a trap line, then it is definitely a very weird line.

    GS is 26-17, taking on the 20-21 TWolves at home, and they are only a 3 point favorite. Is there any reason this isn't at least -5?

    In NBA, home court is typically worth 3 points. With a line of GS -3, books are basically saying these teams are dead even on a neutral court.

    It should be higher but keep in mind books have a very high opinion of the Wolves for some reason. Look at their recent lines. They were only +5.5/6 in San Antonio for example.

    Both Bogut and David Lee are game time decisions.

    Books have been very high on Wolves all season, and keep getting burned on them. I was high on the Wolves to start the year, but they just don't have it. I'd be very surprised if Love sticks around another year.

    Pretty unheard of that you can get GS at -3 or -150 ML against a below .500 team at home.

    GS and PHX are the two very fishy lines.

    I agree. I initially thought they weren't that good but somehow got caught into the hype after the first 7-8 games and thought they were a playoff team (though I never thought they'd be better than a 6-7-8 seed, some people had them getting homecourt and shit like that). Now I'm back to thinking they stink and will probably keep that thought all season long.

    Both Lee and Bogut are good to go. Line still only -3.5. Staying far away. Can't bet against GW at home on a Friday night coming off a loss. Books obviously like Wolves.
