So yes, odds are first and foremost about generating bets. But for Vegas they NEED to generate bets on BOTH sides of the line about equally so they don't lose money. So because of that a betting will end up correlating VERY close in most circumstances to the probability of an outcome. Of course there will be exceptions where public conception will be so strong on something that it will skew the bets away from the actual probablity. But I would say in most cases the betting line offers a pretty close glimpse (sort of by accident) of the probability of the outcome.

Very bad start to the game. 0/6 and the shots are short as if the players have no energy at all.
What the heck is that we are watching? Are the players in blue and green playing basketball?

Make it 0/11. This is utter rubbish. You can't make shots so try to the something different. All they do is fire quick threes. One brick after another.

First FG by DFS. We could have easily been down by 20 in only 5 minutes.
