CB + KB > LO + KB VOICE OUR UR OPINIONS! Caron Butler is starting to be a scary side kick with kobe, averaging 24 and 7 yet kobe and him share the ball and they have no problems off the court either. Lakers fans, Lamar Odom is the best trading asset we have and hopefully Kupcake can get equal value in return. we can still keep devean and JJ in the rotation but the rest of the lakers are tradable and that again, includes Lamar Odom, face it he doesn't fit with kobe and he won't be he needs to have the ball alot while caron can score in a variety of ways and not just DRIVE ALLL THE TIME!!! please tell me wut u think about this
If Caron can put in 20 pts consistently next year, keep him and trade Lamar. He hasn't been able to be consistent all year, so I am still all for trading him.
Trade Lame-er Slow-Dumb and keep Quron Buttler, im all for it. Caron hasnt had a full season really to get into a solid system without something hindering him (The early career injurys and this year with regime changes) next year i see a breakthrough for him, hope its in the LA uni.
Keep both. Caron just late in the season has found his rhythm with Kobe and I think if Odom didn't spend so much time injured he would by now too considering the coaching and style changes made since Tomjanovich left.
Caron is looking good, and both seem to co-exist nicely. If we can use ODOM to get a BIGMAN, then Im all for it.
yeah yeah, i say we trade odom. caron has been real nice to the team this season unlike lamar who has been incosistent all year. he makes a really good trade bait for a big man.
Caron has been arguably more inconsistent than Lamar. Remember the stretch of games after the trade deadline? As of lately though, he has been awesome..but I really don't think he can keep it up..I am simply not convinced by him.
y wasn't caron consistent most of the year? That is because Lamar odom had to dominate the ball.... and when u have KOBE and lamar having the ball most of every possession....u won't be able to score that much, so without lamar, caron has been able to be productive.
Lamar dominated the ball? Wrong. He also was inconsistent and struggled, but was more consistent than Caron thanks to his constant rebounding. Lamar is worth way more to us than Caron, they both can chip in 15 ppg, but Caron can't grab you 10 rpg like Lamar can.
