I don’t think where dissin’ LO,I feel it comes as a shock that he would say that when he gets the ball enough then decides to pass,he did it yesterday. I like the fact he’s asking for the ball and wants to win,to be honest,he’s right but HE DOESN’T HAVE TO BE THE ONLY OPTION(EXACTLY WHAT MY COMMENT RELAYED). This team’s chemistry is off and it’s nobody’s fault,injuries have plagued The Lakers for 3 yrs. now,so your not going to be as productive and LO MANNED UP YESTERDAY,he just feels the sting of losing 1st place and not being able to contribute xxtra.

I find it hard to believe that LO really wanted the ball…he hasn’t wanted it in 10 years! Just hold on til the troops get back!

I agree with you Tim, all these people here dont know what the hell there talking about.

For the past month Odom is leading the NBA in FG percentage and he’s still grabbing 10+ boards a night for us.

some of you ppl who are shitting on Odom are pretty stupid, its an auto-make in the post for Odom almost, he was trying to win, obviously his 17 and 11 wasnt good enough for the win, he wanted to help but no once came to him

damn everyone needs to stop dissin LO he has been doing his job just fine double dould every game. also guarding players that weigh 50 to 75 pounds morew than him, i am happy that he wants it more in the post, no one can touch him in the paint. he has been in the post these days rather than puttin up 3point shots. D fish gotta get it going, sasha and farmar have dropped their game as well.

I think his teammates are so used to his inconsistency and passiveness that they really don’t look to him to be “aggressive”. He’s never been known to do that so why start now. I aggree with a lot of you when you point out that it’s not his teammates’ fault, it’s his fault for not speaking up when he wants the rock on the post. I think his teammates will actually RESPECT him for wanting to step up when needed be especially Kobe. So next time, you’re gonna b***h and moan about not getting the rock enough, then get in their faces and say “GIMME THE F***NG ROCK GADDAMMIT!!!!!

Heres a hint Lamar, you want the ball more, stop telling this shiit to the media, and tell it the other players on the team. You wan tthe f***ing ball more, f’in call it in the game. Lamar is too passive, its like hes made of little girls, puppies and bunnies. Phil himself has to tell lamar all the time to get active, WTF is that. Phil has to tell you to get active and aggressive but you b**** about not getting the ball. Lamar needs to man up already, which i dont think will happen. Thats why hes considered a fourth option. Its not the other players fault that Lamar didnt get the ball, its Lamars fault, if you demand it youll get.

In the short term with Gasol, Bynum out, give the ball to Odom in the post, the couple of times he had it in the Rockets game he did alright and the flow of the game was better. The only problem as we all know with Lamar is at times it seems he loses his way during the game.

Let’s see if he asks for it more often when he is on the block against Dallas and Utah?

But as Phil said and I agree he has to let the other players on the court know that he wants it there and that he will go there consistently until Gasol and our other bigs return. But that very word consistent and Lamar seem to not like each other.
