This incident is eerily similar to what happened to the Raptors recently. Replace Kobe with Bosh. Odom with Jamario Moon. Diaw with Joe Johnson. The only difference would be that Bosh didn't hold his tongue after the game.
You are fucking 28 years old Odom! Youve been in the league for damn near a decade now! Kobe shouldn't have to coddle your ass when this team is expecting you to be one of its leaders!! Last night was the perfect example of whats wrong with Odom. Gasol wasnt on his game and Kobe fouled out. Lamar should have stepped up but he left it on the shoulders of our 21 year old center.
Anyone who can't show up to work on time to play a kids game and is getting paid millions shouldn't be allowed on the Lakers. Odom & Radman have both been unprofessional year in and year out. They don't deserve to be a part of this organization and the fans who come to watch them play deserve better.
i could tell from his reaction on the bench, lol.........the bobcats did the same idiotic thing in regulation by doubling kobe with a 3 point lead.....................I swear I don't know what goes through guys brains sometimes...........
TRADE HIS ASS! If he can't play under pressure against the Bobcats in the regular season, then the odds of him fucking things up in the playoffs are staggering.
I am gonna be the voice of reason... Do not trade Lamar. There is not a SINGLE player out there who is actually available that could be better for the Lakers than Lamar I have heard every single trade idea for him and the only one that seemed like it could help was for Gerald Wallace. Any minuscule chance of that happening ended last night. Do not trade Lamar...he is not as bad as you perceive him in your head LO had some bad plays in OT. It sucks. Get over it.
My most hated Lakers: 1. Luke Walton 2. Lamar Odom 3. Derek Fisher I'm so sick of Lamar's antics. He's a great talent, but he's a fucking idiot.
humor me...remember, players ACTUALLY available AND works financially ...and if you Kirk Im gonna e-slap you
Because for the most he doesn't play any defense, he's a chucker, he is horrible at making post entry passes so Bynum suffers, and he can't make a layup to save his life. The only thing he can do is hit open shots. I don't hate him as a person, I just hate him as a player. His clutch shots are nice, but if we actually had a capable point guard, we may never have even needed those clutch plays.
I agree with DaRizzle. I'm not a Lamar fan, but our chemistry is awesome. Despite his bone head plays, Lamar is big for us off the bench. Teams can't beat us with what we've got with Bynum and Ariza healthy. There is no reason to tinker with it. Let Odom walk at the end of the year, but don't trade him unless it is a sure fire thing to make us better--which it won't. Teams won't be willing to give us a good deal or a fair deal because of how we got Gasol. Just bite the bullet with Lamar and sit him at the end of the game in place for Bynum.
Are you purposely brown-nosing me this past week Black Mamba? ...cause its working You have pointed out how I am right and/or awesome in several threads now recently dammit, I wanted to stay pissed at you!
I've always thought Kirk was overrated.........I saw a rumor about Andre Miller in another thread...he helps the lakers out in a lot of areas they need help in.........most notably on the defensive end........Odom is just far too inconsistent for a guy who the Lakers depend on heavily. He's never been a great shooter, he can only go left, his b-ball IQ is low, his defense can be poor at times, etc........Andre Miller would cut down on the PG penetration and he would bring another guy who can take some of the pressure off a kobe when it comes to creating off the dribble. He's not a great 3 pt shooter, but neither is Odom and you guys already have enough 3 point shooters.........Odom, Walton, Radmanovic and at times Farmar are mistakes waiting to happen........I've just never witnessed a team win a title with a big chunk of their role players being inconsistent one dimensional players with low b-ball IQs.............losing him won't do much to your chemistry............
lol....Sam I Am, Big Shot Rob, and Elie deficate all over the the laker reserves in many aspects, haha.....but on a serious note what do u think about Andre Miller?....I personally think it would be a steal for one year......
