Understanding Public and Money
Think of 'Public' as the percentage of people betting on each side and 'Money' as how much money is being bet. When there's a big difference between the 'Public' and 'Money' data, it usually means that the more serious bettors (referred to as 'Sharp Money') are favoring a particular side.

Zack's Analysis:
Two teams with a gamut of issues collide on Friday when the Lakers host the Blazers. Portland is just 2-12 on the road this year and has a long list of players out due to injury or COVID-19. But the Lakers have dropped six of their last seven games. Even with coach Frank Vogel back, I don’t expect an easy win for L.A. Grab the points with Portland.
