Why is he still on this team. Trade him. Trade him for expirings or a bag of chip please, thank you. I can't handle this anymore, it's the same crap every single day. I can go on and on but I'll stop here. He is absolutely horrible. I can't believe we decided to keep him over Caron Butler. Whatever, hopefully he's gone by the trade deadline. That is all.
Our "second option" finished with less points (only scored 4), less rebounds, and less assists than Kwame Brown even though he played ten more minutes. What the hell is wrong with this guy.
I didn't watch the game. But reading on LG, a lot of people said Mbenga was doing good? And also looking at the recaps / box score, Kobe had a hell of a game, scoring 40 points on 19 FGA. What happened with Odom though? 4/2/2? What the hell happened?

He played hard and played some pretty good defense, which is probably too much to ask for from Lamar. I don't know what happened to him today, but it's been happening for the past 3 seasons, and I'm sick of this. Trade him NOW please
Same here man I want to see Odom go as much as you do but lets see what Mitch does hopefully something good. I just can't stand and watch Odom mess up the Lakers. He needs to go!
mbenga had more points and more rebounds than odom in 15 minutes (half of odoms playing time), he also makes 1/100 of the money odom makes thsi year. i know stats don't mean everything, but odom was just pathetic. shave the star off his head, bench him, and ship his ass out. it pisses me off some more it was his foot bynum stepped on aaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhh.
**** Lamar Odom, I swear he had 4 points and 2 rebounds, man even DG had a better game, trade he's stupid ass outta here. He doesn't deserve to wear a Laker jersey, he's pathetic. inconsistent idiot.
Who could we get for him? Lets trade him straight up PLEASE!!! Maybe Odom for G. Wallace or Deng or Nocioni or Whoever!!! Im sure Kobe realizes that odom is one of the real problems that is causing the lakers downfall in games, he simply does not want to bang heads coz' he thinks odom still has some kind of 'upside'...
If you are so eager to cut him would you trade Odom for Zack Randolph, or Mike Bibby, or Odom + Vladdy for Marbury? Those are some players that teams seeming willing to part with.
At this point id trade him for gerald green... minny can afford it, theyre well under the cap i think
Mbenga did a good job defending Dirk. He played for Dallas and should be familiar with their player tendencies. DJ plays with a lot of heart and is doing a good of playing the enforcer role. Ronny Turiaf is playing with a lot of pain in his toe. He was grimacing for most of the game. Kobe Bryant was magnificent last night, but employee #7 was nowhere to be found. Jordan Farmar had an amazing 4th quarter to help lead the comeback effort, but the Lakers were too far behind to make up the difference. It might be a good idea to start Farmar after halftime so we don't have these lapses in the 3rd quarter.

NO IDEA he was going to breakout his sophomore season, he looks like he has been playing for 5 or 6 years in the NBA! LO to Minny for GG and Theo. GET IT DONE MITCH!
