    Re: Lakers had made new offer of 36/4, 30/3 to LO.

    I'm guessing he goes with LA.

    I am too.

    I think he would've taken Miami's offer by now.

    If you don't listen to Artest, he'll go ape shit on your ass when we play you.

    If he wants to win, I can't imagine he'd go to Miami. They're still not a contender, even if they get him.

    It'd be kinda fucked up in a way if LO leaves for Miami. Kinda like the Elton Brand situation last year, in a way. Ron was really considering Cleveland and then Kobe and LO started texting him to get him in LA. I think LO was the deciding factor, because Ron wants to play with his childhood friend. So now he signs the contract and LO says fuck you.

    lol

    Re: Lakers had made new offer of 36/4, 30/3 to LO.

    Believe it or not Joe Smith would be a good replacement for LO. Not flashy or anything, but if he is like the Joe Smith I remember (like 3 years ago), he'd be a perfect compliment to Drew/Pau.

    Age is a factor though, I wonder how effective he can still be. Would be a good low key move for us if LO leaves, but still a major downgrade. Hopefully Lamar returns, he'll bring an added dimension to this team guys like Smith cannot.

    If Drew goes down though, we're still screwed. Smith cannot play long minutes consistently anymore, which is a problem. There's something wrong with his knees.

    Re: Lakers had made new offer of 36/4, 30/3 to LO.

    They interviewed Luke Walton, and he said "Lamar Odom will be a Laker, trust me."

    I don't think he has any credibility but I hope he's right. If LO wanted to be a Heat he would've signed already. They already offered him the most money. I'm guessing we're still trying to negotiate with him?

    Anyways, I heard over the weekend that a decision would be made today. There is none. Wonder how much longer we will have to wait. Just make the fucking decision already. Leave if you want to, I'm sick of this.

    I guess we're still negotiating? Not sure, interesting comment by Luke though.

    Okay, Luke.

    I'll believe it when I see it. I'm not going to trust some bench player.

    Re: The Goods Thread (everything Lamar related)

    HK posted a photo of Lamar in Vegas.

    Supposedly, Mitch is in Vegas too.

    At least, that is the rumor going around CL, LG, and TLN.

    Re: The Goods Thread (everything Lamar related)

    Either Roger Lodge has a really good source or he made up a great rumor that is giving his radio show a lot of advertising because his rumor is all over LG, twitter, TLN, CL, and some other sites.

    If after all these paid analysts with inside sources can't break the news first, and Lodge does, I'll have a whole new respect for him and more hate for BSPN.
