That's what's wrong with sports at Kobe wanted to leave because The FO was slow in building a Contender and just for the MONEY. NOW!Lets go after Gerald Wallace,Mickael Pietrus,Udonis Haslem,Corey Maggette,etc......SOMEBODY but make sure Vlad is gone,send him to Golden State for Pietrus,Nelly would love have to have his NO-DEFENSE,CAN'T DEFEND ANYBODY STYLE OF DEFENSE but he can shoot.

We got to the finals and now this offseason there is only one team that we know can beat us. Thats who we have to prepare for. Like when the entire west was shaken up when gasol went to LA, yea everyone prepared for us, most didnt even get to play us though. Well now we must do the same, we know we can win the west....now we must prepare for boston. Bynum will fill 75% of that goal. A healthy ariza will fill 10% of that goal. And a MLE will fill the 15% left. The only thing anyone should be thinking about right now is who we will take with the MLE. Not trading odom. Are you guys retarded? Odom is our best rebounder by far. He is a walking mismatch. And will only get BETTER when bynum takes the role of 3rd guy. Odom is the best 4th option to ever play basketball. Why get artest?

Lamar has his versatility and chemistry with the team that is unmatched. He can start and come off the bench. He meshes well with the starters (gasol and bynum on separate occasions) and with the bench mob. When KB and Gasol were on the bench, LO would be on the floor. Now, Artest does bring that "toughness" that we all feel we need to beat every team in the NBA, but lets get real... he feels he's a superstar, and wants to get paid like one. Plus, look at his track record. People don't change that quickly. He has a HUGE ego, and a flaring temper that is hotter than a car sitting on the 405 at 2 PM. Now, since he is friends with LO and KB, maybe, just maybe they can make a deal to have them all here? But Kupchack needs wave Merlin's wand for that. Maloof brothers aren't idiots... they will want a player for their "star" player. I say, try to get someone from the draft today... I predict a big day in trades in the next 5 days, but please don't get rid of LO! Personally, I don’t believe that Ron Artest will bring what we need to the organization.

That would be stupid. Plus the kings have made it clear they would not be willing to the lakers at all costs. They'll trade artest to the spurs before they would send him to the Lakers. I think trading odom would be stupid period. Unless you get a really dynamic player, near great player for him. Odom is a mismatch almost every game for the opposing team but more importantly he has a 14 mil contract that will be up after the season think of what the lakers could do with that type of cap space next year when it comes to signing free agents and bynums extension. Also they would likely be able to convence odom to take a fair pay cut to stay with the team- 10 -12 mil per yr would be more than fair. The lakers need to focus on shipping luke and vlad out of town instead of odom. Plust Artest is both friends to odom and kobe You don’t trade Odom for Artest. That would be stupid.
