Lamar to re-sign with LA Lakers

[Russ]

Rumors seem to be gaining steam that Odom will come back to the Lakers (even Laker pessimist John Ireland seems to think they are getting close).

Apparently the blogger below has been correct about most aspects of this up to now:

Lamar, Riley, and Wade Meet - Odom Says Thanks But No Thanks

According to sources close to the Lakers' organization, Pat Riley and Dwyane Wade from the Miami Heat formally met with Lamar Odom this afternoon to discuss their contract offer of 5 years, $34 million at the MLE. The result of their meeting was that Odom ultimately said he appreciated their offer but that he would have to decline. He reiterated his love for the city of Miami for giving him a home, and to Riley for giving him his first big contract (of which he is currently coming off of).

However, he felt his best chance to win another NBA championship would be with the Lakers, and that he felt he owed it to the city of Los Angeles to come back for another le run. Odom plans on meeting with Lakers' owner Jerry Buss later this week to finalize contract details. More to come later.

He should take the minimum and come here just to piss off the Lakers. On second thought, lets beat them with him pouting on their bench.

Jerry Buss must have thrown in the 5 years supply of Gummy Bears.

After negotiations.... or is his immune system breaking down? You be the judge.
