Is the LAFakers / NO game a trap?

Fakers +2 and 206?

Any opinions would be greatly appreciated. I really like the Fakers, esp. the OVER.

FWIW,
I think this is a trap line, but, the Lakers have been playing great ball and they're a public fave. I'll watch the line movement until game time and then make a decision. For now, I lean towards the Fakers.

lol... trap line for Lakers? youd actually expect the Lakers to be favored on the road against a 23-11 team? Yes obviously the public gets more Laker exposure but you cant call this a "trap"... its a public fade if anything.

its the a trap the other way around. NO should be favored by more than 2 pts.

Will the Lakers ever lose again? Kwame Brown has returned to solidify our frontcourt. Be very afraid!
