    Re: Odom Offer Could Be Less

    I've said his market value, IMO, was $7-9 million. I thought the $8 million would've been fair if they offered him a 4th year.

    Re: Odom Offer Could Be Less

    I think $8M is fair market value too for Odom. He's not worth $10M and especially not for 4 or 5 years. I'm confident in Bynum next year and Artest is going to keep the locker room focused on winning a ring along with Kobe.

    Odom hasn't accomplished anything by stalling. So sign or fuck off.

    $8 million is more than fair. Odom was an idiot for stalling the first time... I AGREE SHAPE.. Sign or fuck off...

    Re: Odom Offer Could Be Less

    How about Linas Kleiza replacing Odom?

    It it comes down to it, I'd rather explore a sign and trade. I think we can do better than Kleiza.

    I'm not sure we have looked much into that this off-season.

    Re: The Goods Thread (Kobe calls Buss to bring back Odom, Update: Pg 11)

    Would you take this deal if Miami offered it for Odom? Haslem + Wright

    Re: The Goods Thread (Woj: Miami favorite, Emplay: LA favorite, Update: Pg 11)

    :lol: Three different reports.

    LA favorite
    Miami favorite.
    Miami no progress.

    I take Woj to be the most credible, as he works for a big site and has broken a shit load of news so far.

    No clue what to think, let's get something done at least Mitch!

    As I said the guy has a good bluff card, we should at least make the same offer he does have another option.

    I tend to believe Woj because he is the highest profile reporter out of these three reports.

    Surprised it has gotten to this point, clearly we should be offering at least a little north of the MLE... Not liking the FO right now to be honest.

    At this point of the off-season, I think you just give the guy what he wants this is troublesome for us any way you look at it. Who cares what he does 4 years from now if we don't even have him the next three seasons? 3/24 is not a better deal than the MLE for five years, we've wasted a lot of time and I don't know why Buss got this offended if the reports are true. Lamar changed his value to 9 million a year after a lot of negotiations, he's definitely within that range.
