    Utah Jazz and Twolves maybe TRAP

    Something weird is going on here... Everyone is betting Jazz right now and the line is dropping. Over 95% of the money on Jazz and the line went from -7 to -6 in some places and I have seen -5.5 in a few also? Any thoughts?

    Jazz are always a no play for me when they are on the road. They haven't shown the ability to play good ball away from home. They have lost to absolutely crappy teams on the road. GL on the game.

    No doubt a trap, sagarin ratings has the line at -9. Grab the Wolves at +6 and lets cash.

    A trap is in bettors mind, not in the line.

    these line makers know what their doing.... If you see a line like that, and you can't believe jazz is only -5.5 or whatever.. jump on the opp team. These line makers obviously have prefigured statistical info or historical info that is informing them to make the line. PLUS if ur not sure if the line is looking average or stand out... take a gander at the consenses on that game... if its heavy toward the obvious, thats when you take opp for that nearly 70% victory.. Seen it done over and over and over again, how do you think book makers make their money fellas! Best of Luck!
