Did anyone hear Lamar Odom's comments yesterday after the game yesterday????

He was being interviewed and they asked him how it felt to win game 5 and he said something to the effect that he was glad because he wanted to be able to eat in LA after the game.


Is it that serious out there where guys feel they can't even go anywhere to eat after a game if they lose a game in the finals?


Also are any other cities like that as well?


Just wondering!!

a loss in game 5 means the lakers lose in the finals. not many other teams/cities can claim to have been in that situation.

LO always puts a lot of pressure and blame on himself and that comment is indicitive of that. He's been doing that long before Ginobili made it fashionable.

I think it would be human nature to feel a bit uncomfortable seeing the fans that you "let down". I don't think it's because LA fans are that intense or hard on players off court.

No but in Colombia they shot the Colomibian National teamplayer 250+ times by 6 people in the middle of a market .
The poor guy scored a goal in his own net by accident in the World Cup against the US .............
