Where do you think Lamar Odom will end up, Lakers or Heat?
BQ- Will the Heat land Carlos Boozer?
BQ2: How much impact will Lamar Odom leaving have in the Lakers?
Answer: Hopefully the Lakers. He has to realize that now with Ariza gone, it's opening up an opportunity to have more minutes and play alongside his good Friend, Artest and the team he helped win a championship this past year.
BQ1: It's lookin like they will.
BQ2: He does alot of small things for us, which some fans don't even appreciate. He's a very underrated rebounder, every time Bynum goes out from fouling or just not playing good, Odom comes in and gives us a much needed spark. If he leaves us, I don't think we will be as good or atleast as depth as last year's Lakers team.

I just heard that the Trail Blazers want Lamar Odom and that is why he has not yet signed with LA?
Appearently the Blazers are making a huge offer for David Lee on the Knicks, and if the Knicks match it they will go all out after Lamar Odom.
BQ: Who would you rather have if you were Portland, Lee or Odom?
And to make this clear, this is not a loyalty thing with Odom, it is that the Blazers have a lot of cap space and can afford to pay Odom far more.
Answer: dam,no wonder i haven't heard any talks on lamar lately
as a person,i love lamar's passion,hardwork,and how he acts in and after games at times
BQ-right now,i'd go for lee,he's young and should've been an all-star last season if it weren't for iverson
odom wants money and laker's are seriously in debt

How can Lamar Odom be effective as a starter with Bynum and Gasol?
Lamar Odom is a very good player, but the Lakers have such a glut of talent, and theyre very anxious to dump him.
I understand that he may not be a good fit at the small forward playing next to Bynum and Gasol, but what could he do to make this line up work, or be effective as a Laker?
Answer: What up Doomsayer,
I think with Lamar it has always been a mental thing- and for whatever reason he struggles in offensive sets when he doesn't have the ball in his hands.
With Bynum, and Gasol you are going to see a lot of open kickouts to Fisher and Kobe and so that is going to limit the number of touches that Lamar gets. I think Lamar can get more touches- but he has to want the ball and he has to take more shots- when he has them. The key to the Lakers and the triangle- is to take what the defense gives you- instead of just trying to fit a mode.
The Lakers have a great frontcourt for the Triangle in that their starting frontcourt can all hit the short to mid-range shots- the just have to cut.
As others have mentioned Lamar will probably be a better option off the bench because he'll be able to have more touches- and because his minutes may be a bit more limited- he may be apt to look for his shot more and be more aggressive. Aggressive Lamar is scary (as demonstrated in the first half against the Celtics in the finals)... but usually it is Lamar who takes Lamar out of games.
I think it's up to Lamar to include himself more- and not pout if he comes off the bench. With the starters he'll have to assert himself more- but also make himself someone that the defense has to double-team that makes the Lakers scary because you have multiple guys that have to be double teamed and that will create some open shots and one-on-one opportunities that their bigs and Kobe and LO should be able to take advantage of.
Hopefully he'll step up as he's key to the Lakers success this year.

How do you feel that Lamar Odom is going to represent in Team USA basketball team?
With Lamar Odom being on the team this games means we have to put with Khloe Karashidan. However she is slight bother since I would root for another gold by TEAM USA. USA USA USA USA
http://www.usabasketball.com/mens/national/2012MOLYroster.html
Answer: They have not made the final team yet, I seriously doubt he would make it.
The finalists are:
1LaMarcus Aldridge
2Carmelo Anthony
3Chauncey Billups
4Chris Bosh
5Kobe Bryant
6Tyson Chandler
7Kevin Durant
8Rudy Gay
9Eric Gordon
10Blake Griffin
11Dwight Howard
12Andre Iguodala
13LeBron James
14Kevin Love
15Lamar Odom
16Chris Paul
17Derrick Rose
18Dwyane Wade
19Russell Westbrook
20Deron Williams
Billups tore his achillies tendon so he is out. That means that of these 19 guys 7 have to go. Of all the great forwards/centers on that list do you really think 'almost went to the D-League' Odom will make the team?

Who Believes Lamar Odom Has A Chance To Play On The All Star Team?
I read that because of the many injuries happening to some of the players who would have possibly played on the All Start Team Lamar Odom has a good chance to land a spot and go to London to play with them.
Does anyone think this will happen after Lamar played so badly with Mavs on purpose. I cant see a powerful man like Mark Cuban NOT putting Lamar on some sort of "invisible" blacklist for his unprofessional actions when he was with the team.
What are your thoughts on this?
Answer: I guess he has a chance, but has he really earned it this season?
The olympics is 2,788 year old tradition of competitive sports. Winning an olympic gold is so significant for the players who are on the team, that I think someone more deserving than Odom should be given the opportunity.
To give you an idea of how significant it is, Kobe said the feeling of winning 5 championships is nothing compared to winning the olympic gold because there is so much tradition behind the games.

Will the Lakers repeat as champions with Lamar Odom finally re-signing with them?
Its official, Lamar Odom will remain with the Lakers. Are they now the big favorites to repeat next year?
Answer: Nothing is guaranteed but the Lakers will be 2-1 favorite by Vegas lines. The Lakers will definitely be a huge favorite to win it again and it's not even close, they are unanimously the odd on favorite. Barring injuries, the Lakers will win 70 games or more this year. The Lakers are too strong at all position, also with the addition of Ron Ron, the Lakers are a BEAST defensively and Kobe gonna be the MVP and the Finals MVP for sure.

How much is an autographed picture of Lamar Odom worth?
I have an autographed pic of Lamar Odom from when he played with the LA lakers and it has the certificate of authenticity and everything... how much is it worth?
Answer: Roughly between $50 - $85. Maybe $90-$100 if it's framed.
Condition is a huge factor in the value, so keep it in the best shape you can. The value of a Lamar Odom signature will only go down over time, because people want today's stars/players, and Lamar will have signed more autographs.

Do you think Lamar Odom and Ariza leaves after season regardless of their success or lack of?
Lamar Odoms production is basically reduced where is a 4th option instead of being the 1st and 2nd option that he once was. So I think he leaves in attempt to try to be an allstar player for at least 3-4 more years. I think Ariza is more likely to stay since he would most likely be a starting small foward for the lakers in the future but then again may not get to shine with kobe hogging the ball.
Answer: Ariza will likely leave if a team offers him a big offer. I think he likes playing in LA, but would probably leave if the Lakers wouldn't match an offer. as good as he's been for them, he's still a role player in the grand scheme of things.
Odom will stay in LA if he's willing to take a monster paycut, to the tune of 65% of his current salary. if Detroit gave him a large offer, he would probably take it.

Did it make sense for someone to compare Lamar Odom to Carlos Boozer?
Lamar Odom is the more versatile player (better passer, ballhandler, shooter, and better defender) but Boozer is a better player and power forward. Boozer is a better low post scorer and rebounder. Also while Odom has 2 rings, he never did well in the playoffs for LA when he was the 2nd or 3rd best player on his team. It was the reason why the Lakers chose to trade for Gasol.
Answer: I say Boozer

David Lee would finally be able to express all his skills, with a great supporting cast. This guy is amazing, he just gets no credit because of his team in NYK.
