    Seems a bit too much for a backup PF. A little north of 8 million?

    smh

    Oh well, can't complain until I see the details. Hopefully LO doesn't get lazy then.

    Looks like Shape was right. Again.

    It is very doubtful that Odom was gonna accept a 7M offer. 8M was always the most possible I guess.

    8 mil sounds fine to me, he's definitely worth more than MLE. If Drew gets hurt and he starts or carries the load again, he'll be playing for a bargain; overall a solid deal. I'd give him 32 Million for 4 years with an option to leave after each year since he wants to test the market so bad.

    That would be a good deal. But I'm pretty sure that LA is only gonna ive him a 3 year deal/

    He isn't worth $10 million.

    $8-$8.5 million. Take it or leave it.

    Definitely not worth 10M. If he's consistent then hell yeah, but since he isn't, dream on.

    Of course its true. There is no market for Odom.


    I'm worried about his attitude next year, now.
