what the lakers ned now is a decent point guard…..trying playing a trade for steve nash in replace for odom and mbenga……lakers have too many sf to play……lamar plays backup pf so why not get another pf from phoenix or do this trade with three teams……

There is no need to trade Odom for Marion. At least Odom knows the triangle – Marion only shined when Nash could deliver him the ball without the need for him to dribble it in order to score.

As inconsistent as Odom is, I don’t believe that Marion will improve the team.

If anything, now that Odom might be hurt and Luke+Farmar are out, we need to ship out at least Mihm for someone.

Trading Odom for a bigger expiring contract such as Marion’s may have little to do with basketball. Instead, it has something to do with finances. Both players have expiring contracts, but would the Lakers rather have Odom’s $14M dollar contract off the books or Marion’s $18M off the books after this season. Remember, the Lakers have a certain player named Trevor Ariza to resign in the offseason (he’s an unrestricted free agent and will get nice offers), plus Kobe can opt out after this year, which doesn’t mean he’ll leave the Lakers but can opt out and resign with the Lakers for more money.

Stupid speculation. The Lakers will not make a move, unless they start to lose. Why make a move when you are 25-5, have the best record in the league and are playing great basketball.

Some of you guys need to think before you post. Goodness.

Marion for Odom?

If you have the least bit of understanding for the game of basketball then you would understand why that is an idiotic proposal. I’m not even going to justify myself.

:sigh:…Go lakers..
