Comments on: Odom still not back with Mavs, will not be bought out http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/02/28/odom-still-not-back-with-mavs-will-not-be-bought-out/ Basketball - NBC Sports Tue, 21 May 2013 03:17:59 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: cosanostra71 http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/02/28/odom-still-not-back-with-mavs-will-not-be-bought-out/comment-page-1/#comment-75282 Tue, 28 Feb 2012 20:59:06 +0000 http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=42771#comment-75282 I watch their show occasionally and she’s not bad at all. Not the brightest bulb in the box, but as previously mentioned, she’s supportive of him, and their relationship seems to be a loving one. Obviously, it could all be the way it is portrayed on the TV, but it looks to be one of those rare Hollywood couples that actually works out.

Why would he make a rival stronger? He won’t.

The bad play and the family issues and emotional issues Odom clearly deals with are important and I’m sure Cuban means what he said, but you can’t tell me in the back of his mind, he simply knows L.O makes the Lakers better and doing Jerry Buss a favor isn’t smart business.

I’m simply saying that he’s basically sucked all year because he didn’t want to leave LA.

I just hope he gets his head in the game, we could really use him down the stretch.

I sure didn’t think after how quick they got married that it was anything but legit, but as it appears (even though it’s on TV and take it with a grain of salt), she’s pretty supportive and loving. A little irritating to me, but apparently not to him.

He should really get over it. If he hadn’t been traded, he’d probably be happy his father was ill. Lamar is an emotional guy, but let’s be honest — he has more reasons to be emotional than most people.

The Lakers know he’s unmotivated, that’s why they gave him away.

Anyone know if that 6’4 growth that he’s been luggin around the last year has anything to do w/ this or is she not as big of a cancer as the rest of her family?

He’s always had some depression-type issues, highlighted by his emotional reaction to almost being traded in the Chris Paul deal. If there was ever a case to be made for reversing a completed trade – it’s this one. I’m sure DAL would love their pic and trade exception back, and the Lakers would be about 5 games further ahead in the win column with LO.
