    <div class="quote_poster">shapecity Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">I agree Marion is a lot more consistent and a better defender.

    The question I would have though, does Phoenix landing Odom, give them the opportunity to acquire Kevin Garnett?

    </div>
    That's a nice thought SC.

    Hmm...

    I'm also wondering... but would the T'Wolves rather prefer a package of Bynum/Odom? Or a package of Bynum/Marion?

    Haven't they basically said that they don't want Marion or Odom, so I don't think it's really an issue.

    Right, they don't want either player, they don't want Bynum either. Minnesota wants young players from this year's draft and cap relief.

    I was pondering whether or not Phoenix had a second trade involved using Odom that would land them the young player's to ship to Minnesota.

    I think the Warriors have the best deal to land KG. A combination of Monta- Wright- Biedrins (Most likley not all 3, thats just dumb). With some one like Harrington.

    I would rather keep Odom so the Lakers have a chance of landing KG. Personally I dont want to see the Suns landing KG.

    We don't have a shot at landing KG, they don't want Odom or Bynum.

    The Twolves don't want Odom, so keeping Odom will not help you get KG.

    No he didn't. In 2006 Odom outplayed Marion in 3 out 7 games. D'Antoni even said, after Phoenix was down 3-1, that Odom outplaying Marion was the difference. Marion responded the next three games and Odom pulled off his infamous disappearing act.
