    So now that Cleveland won SU in Sacramento

    Why in the hell were the Kings favored by 9.5?

    You're asking too many questions of these lines they are fixed to fool you, watch the games, know your teams/situation and make the best decision.

    Trying to make sense of this line is not worth your time. Two shit teams with one laying -7 at open, then getting beaten up to -9.5... Even if you were to gain some insight, how often does something like this happen? Useless.

    The books just made their shortlist of who among their customers has NO common sense whatsoever.

    The line was high to sway you into taking the + line instead of the ML which was a very possible outcome all along.

    ya dig?

    I bet Cavs straight. Two crap teams and one is favored by 9.5? This was a trap.

    no, cavs may cover I doubt they will win.

    It only works when the teams are somewhat equally matched

    e.g thunder +6 today vs heat

    How is Sac -9.5 too good to be true?
