JJ is this a trap game?

[buztah]

Portland v Miami? Portland and a hook. Seems tooooo easy. Am I psyching msyelf out by not gobbling up Portland here or is this a trap?

Miami looks really easy to me

[jjgold]

no. Miami is a pathetic team with players banged up

Portland is very good and rested

But I thought that's why it was a trap. It's obvious miami is shit and that Portland should kill them so why does Portland only have to cover 4 and a hook. I would set the line at 9 or 10. Can you please elaborate as to how you identified this as a value play and not a trap? Thanks, pal!
