[Oddsmakers know] squares, ... We'll make the line as high as we can without the professional players coming back on us. |
[Part of the reason for L.A.'s rather low odds is the team's widespread popularity and the city's proximity to Vegas. Lines often get skewed because more people bet on certain teams.] The Lakers are a public team, like the Green Bay Packers and the Minnesota Vikings, ... They get a lot more people betting on them.
