I studied this line. Opened at -3.5 Nuggets. Was never a PK. Went to Nuggets -3.... then quick drops to 2.5 and finally 2 and even 1.5 in some spots. Despite people pounding the shit out of the nuggets. Vegas knew people were going to keep suckering in on the Nuggets and all the could do was keep dropping it to make it more enticing. They knew the Lakers were winning this game outright and the greedy fuckers kept giving away that perceived "gift" by lowering the line despite all the action on the nuggets.
Whoever says the oddsmakers don't try to make one team favorite to entice the public is full of shit. This was a perfect example. Why the fuck was denver -1 or anything here in this spot? Missing three key players who all contribute. Jokic mudiay and barton. Barton and jokic would have dominated that game. Yet denver was the favorite.
