If true, Lakers will be heavy favorites to repeat. Which is good, I love our guys in underdog role.  We relished it in '08.  Will again.

Yeah, Lakers will be favorites again for sure. I like our chances.... just have to solidify Daniels / Davis and the rest of the roster is gravy.

Why bother playing the season now?  There is no way anyone can stop Odom and the Lakers, the greatest basketball franchise ever created.

Seriously, there is no way they would have beat the C's last year in the Finals if we had KG.  I honestly believe the Celtics have a chance at winning 70 games this season if the pieces fall into place and we stay healthy.

Source is garbage. Black Sports online??? John Ireland, who is a little like the Celtics Donny Marshall claims it is a completely bogus rumor..

that phrase, "a little like the Celtics Donny Marshall" doesn't instill confidence in me for his reputation

Yeah Odom is good but c'mon 10 million a year for a somewhat lackluster albeit skilled bench player.  KG will eat his heart while still beating.

He was making more than 10 per on his previous contract.

They still overpaid, though.  Odom is nowhere near worth 10 mil/yr.

I don't think this is the most reliable source.  Read the comments section on the website reporting this.  With that said, I still think Odom returns to LA.

Where is the source? I see nothing on ESPN or LA Times.

Regardless, the Fake Show can keep the ADD spaz and overpay him if that's what they enjoy. I enjoy watching him shrink in the Finals against a real front line.

Hold up.  As mentioned in a previous post John Ireland has a very different story of what's going on.  John Ireland, to me, is a much more reliable source.



http://stevemasonsmog.typepad.com/john_irelands_plog_710_es/2009/07/the-latest-on-lamar-odom.html

Ireland called it 50/50 that Odom comes back.


If you want the real story, check this out.  One of the greatest things I've ever seen:
