Well the reasoning for me to even make this trade is I have always seen Odom as a sixer not sure why, I have always seen Harpring a celtic aswell and TO a jet for that matter. Anywho

The lakers get a point guard to set up Kobe and Bynum who is improving rapidly, evans gives them a guy who can grab boards and get them 2nd chance buckets.

The sixers get a odd but very talented player in odom I would imagine they could start him at the 4 and he could feed off of Iggy a little better then Kobe. Shasha was just thrown in for the sixers to have another point guard if need be. Im curious to see how far off I am in this.

So LAL trades Odom for a 3rd PG?

Pretty far off.

LAL wont trade Odom for a 3rd PG unless the PG is >>>> Fisher or Farmar.

In the Triangle, Andre Miller is NOT >>>> Fisher or Farmar.

You could make a case for Fisher and Farmar being better fits than Andre Miller.

lakers pass without much consideration. the lakers have fisher/farmar/critt at pg. this trade makes the pg rotation better, but crowded. the pf rotation however goes in the toilet.

I'm with Stefanski in that I'm in no rush to move Andre Miller considering the way he's been playing this season. Odom is nice but he's an injury prone player that disappears at times hence, I'd rather keep the guy who hasn't missed a game in around 6 seasons and is making everyone else play much better than they would without him.

Understandable, Just figured I would throw out a trade of a player I have always seen in a certain uniform. I had a bigger trade with chicago involved, but decided to pull the plug on that one.
