Because the Romans took the Greek gods but actually, the Romans had quite a few more gods than the Greeks.

How was the religion in Rome when they borrowed it from the Greeks?

Although the Romans worshipped many of the Greek gods, under Roman names, there were differences in the two religions. The Romans also had gods they inherited from their Etruscan neighbours, although by and large the Greek gods became more important. The Romans never really adopted the Greek belief in oracles. On the other hand, the Romans followed a form of shamanism and divination.
