LO averaging 3.8 in the last 6,with a horrible 30% shooting,only 5 boards,2 assists
14 Million dollars my a*s.
I'm sick of this on-going Odom experiment, that obviously isn't going to work.
It's not because of the 16-2 record, it's just he can't even produce when he's facing scrubs out there.
Starting pg>>Backup PF.
Get his ass outta here.
I had sympathy for him going into the season, but now he's just taking AB's minutes.
Lets get some trades for this punk; I know a lot of teams who could use a 6'10 P-F, w/ expiring contract right now.

Odom for Boozer would benefit both teams.
, the Lakers could even through in one of their white guys to sweeten the deal.
Odom for Marbury?
Odom for Shaq, again?
Odom for McGrady would be a very interesting trade. The Rockets could dump that piece of and get the power forward they've needed next to Yao, along with perhaps a shooter or two, and the Lakers get a backup for Kobe who won't completely blow leads.
Odom for Michael Redd?
Scott Skiles could use another versatile 4-man to sit behind Malik Allen.
Odom didn't play well on this road trip but prior to that he was having a great season.
Too hasty, Lakers will get back home, practice some more and Odom will be balling again.
I swear one more boneheaded play from Lamar and I will croak.
HOw about we trade Kobe for missing 5 weak jumpers in a row? He also missed that last jumper against Indiana that would of putus up by 3. LO's been great so far, he's not the problem.
Yes, we should trade Kobe.
Odom for Marc Gasol and OJ Mayo.
nah dude salaries don't match they need to throw in Gay.
I don't know how Boozer fits into LA's plans, but I'd do anything to get him out of Utah.
Scolandry is averaging 20 points and 12 rebounds per game............no ing thank you.
If we were to trade McGrady it would be for something other than the PF position which is the deepest on the team.
P.S.
It's extremely annoying listening to Laker fans about how crappy one of their bench players is..........you're 16-2....STFU.
Odom/Farmar for Hinrich/Gooden. Here's why.
I don't think Farmar is the future PG of the Lakers. His game is more suited for an uptempo offense, not the slower more methodical triangle. Right now it's not an issue because he plays with the bench mob but if you insert him into the starting 5 he struggles. His defense is also very poor for someone with his phyiscal talents, he's almost as bad as Fisher.
The reasons for getting rid of Odom's pathetic ass are obvious. Inconsistent, mentally weak, not a good fit, and most importantly he takes Bynum out of the game in the 4th when we need him most.
Hinrich is the perfect tri PG. Shoots pretty well, good defender, makes heady plays out there. He would thrive playing next to Kobe in a shooter's offense. I think he'd do well with an Ariza type role, doesn't start the game but ends up closing and playing more mintues than Fisher. Gooden is a solid backup PF. Plays hard, shoots OK, just a decent guy to have on your team.
CHI does this because Rose is the future. Hinrich has no role on the team and is paid too much. LO fills a void they've had for a long time. He'd do well with Rose and add a lot of length to their front court. Farmar is a good backup PG.
Heinrich isn't that good anymore, and he's a cap killer, gooden doesn't improve our defense much. Plus those 2 needs more shots than Lo or Farmar needs and thats one thing that can't happen.
Come now Dr House, Odom and Farmar have been great prior to this road trip. Don't give up on them yet. Farmar doesn't seem to be the future PG, but he's still young and pretty good as a point guard. Farmar's only problem is his defense and that can be corrected.
Hinrich is not the future, he's not exciting and he can't dunk.
Drew Gooden has even less heart, even less skill and even less drive than Odom.
Both of them are downgrades from Farmar/Odom.
And no Boozer either. I've watched a good number of Utah games and Boozer is very frustrating. Boozer has good stats but he's a non-impact player.
Odom doesn't have good stats but he has alot of impact, sometimes bad but mostly good.
Hinrich is no better and no worse than he's ever been (when he's actually playing, as opposed to being injured). He's a fabulous defender, a clutch shot maker, and is willing to defer. He'd be perfect in the triangle, whether he's "exciting" and dunks or not.
Gooden's stupid and probably worse defensively than Odom, but he's a better rebounder and doesn't play like a wing.
That would be a very good deal for L.A., though I don't know why Chicago would make it. Although it would create some rotation issues with what to do with Fisher's backup's minutes until Hinrich returned to aciton.
Wait, so Odom's not a top 25 player?
What does L.A. get out of it? Bass is a rich man's Luke Walton and Stackhouse is a loser, a cancer, and nothing but a chucker at this point in his career.
From everyone of your posts, it's obvious you are not a Lakers fan, so why don't you just come out of your closet.
Are you kidding me? CHI makes out like bandits. Odom is a giant expiring, they get rid of Hinrich who they desperately want to dump, and they get a quality backup PG in Farmar that can run their uptempo game. They win out big time IMHO.
Wait your knock on Hinrich is that he can't dunk??? OK now I know not to take any of your posts seriously anymore.
LO is what he is, an inconsistent and mentally weak player who makes bone-headed plays all the time. He can't be relied upon in the clutch IMHO and does not deserve to take away minutes from Bynum. If he cannot be happy with his role as a bench player then he needs to be traded. No more appeasing Odom, either accept that you aren't good enough to start on this team or get the out of here.
He has to be because he would be the best player on 20 other teams.
