Lakers Championship Tribute

Kobe's Circus Shot

Heat interested in Marion for Artest; Wade would love reunion with Odom?

A few interesting things, first off – the two rumored people the Lakers are interested in (Artest and Marion) are now being talked about being traded for each other – who knew?

RealGM:  Miami is believed to have interest in Ron Artest and be willing to part with Shawn Marion, whose $17.1 million deal also is expiring.

Lastly, it’s no surprise there has been a Miami/Odom appeal over the last few years. Wade recently spoke about Odom and his feelings towards him…

RealGM: “I love L.O. as a person and, of course, as a player,” Wade said. “We had one year together. I wish we could have had more.

“It’s a guy who I’ve always said it’s a possibility when he left that he can maybe come back. … A player like that, we would love to have a chance to get because he’s so versatile.”

  9. xtro says:

    Keep Odom!!

  10. gspence001 says:

    were not gonna get any quality players if we keep odom

  11. Michael_23 says:

    Heat can’t trade Marion for Shawn. It would be more copmlicated.

    I think the LO/Mihm is easier than LO for Artest/Thomas.

    But ego and $$$ can kill us after the 09 season is over. They might leave.

  12. DCLAKER says:

    forget Odom!!!

    why are people stuck on keeping him?? he has done NOTHING for the Lakers except be consistently INCONSISTENT

    what can he do that Artest and/or Marion can’t? or let me put it this way.. what can he do BETTER than them?

    TO BE CONTINUED…

    THE LIFE OF AN LOSER, WILL RETURN

  23. Geloman says:

    Face it everybody. Lakers are going to go into training camp with the same players from last season minus Ronny.

    It’s sad, but it’s reality.

  24. Geloman says:

    Ok. Hibitchi here needs to be banned for life. Let’s make it so.

  25. lskerfan567 says:

    [Comment ID #45491 Will Be Quoted Here]

    NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOO, THE LIFE OF THE LOSER WILL BE CANCELED IF WE BAN HIM

  26. lskerfan567 says:

    ESPN-
    Josh Childress, Hawks: Childress doesn’t get nearly the respect or hype as many of his teammates in Atlanta, but he’s been a devastatingly effective sixth man. Still, he might be expendable given all of Atlanta’s wing talent. He probably can’t get more than a midlevel deal on this market, but he’d be a bargain at that price.

    JOCH CHILDRESS PEOPLE

    No. Marbury’s a deadlier poison than Artest would be and is no where near as productive. Marbury’s glory days are behind him. Did everyone forget the bs he put the Knicks organization through? No way would I take him. Also, he has a ridiculously large contract to take on. Lose-Lose. We don’t need a PG, we have Fisher, Farmar, Crawford (If we keep him), and Sun Yue back in China. PG is probably the one position we do NOT need to strengthen.

  29. L.A.K.E.R says:

    Uh, how do I quote someone so it doesn’t look crappy?

  30. e says:

    if we want either one of these players on the lakers, we’re going to need to act quickly…unfortunately, thats not the strong suit for mitch but i hope he gets the job done

    The Guy from my 1st comment was…KEYON DOOLING(he doesn’t like Orlando anymore,wants OUT)!

    C MON JOSEPH I WANNA CONTINUE THE SERIES

  42. This is EXACTLY why I keep saying we are undervaluing Lamar Odom. Every player in the NBA knows what goods LO brings except for the Lakers fans. He was crucial to our success up to becoming West Champions. All the little things he did (go after boards, contesting shots, things that doesn’t show up on stat sheets, making the initial pass) helped us out tremendously. Without him, I don’t think we would have made became West Champs.
