if they bring in lamar, my favorite player when he was here, and bring back fan fave sasha....i will love this team no matter what the win/loss record is.

until there's a full rebuild at least two yrs down the road, i don't expect titles, i don't expect to contend, and really with kobe on the books i don't expect a full tank job. just gimme a team i can enjoy with players i love, this would be it.

I don't really see it with Odom anymore. The guy is just unmotivated, and can't put the ball in the hoop anymore. If the best PG in the game (Paul) couldn't motivate him, what makes you think we would? He's probably still upset about being traded.

Beggars can't be choosers, I'd take LO as backup big. He's not as motivated but he brings versatility and can rebound still.

don't see LO moving away from LA so either he resigns with the clips or he resigns with us.

Come on tony, yes odom sulked when he found out we tried to trade him but that's in the past. His resume while here speaks for itself. He's a guy that doesn't need plays ran for him and his passing for his size is right on par with lebron's IMO
