ESPN.com’s Marc Stein is saying Lamar Odom is agreeing to a 4-year deal worth $33 million, $27 million guaranteed, to remain on the Los Angeles Lakers’ roster. This will keep the championship team intact. And when I say intact, I mean Adam Morrison did not go anywhere, he is still a Laker. You laugh, but Adam makes almost the same amount of money as Ron Artest.

Obviously, the Lakers viewed Odom as an important piece to their championship team. If somehow they can injure Kevin Garnett and Leon Powe come playoff time next year, they might have a chance to repeat. If not, look for the Boston Celtics to easily defeat Los Angeles in the Finals, again.

“If not, look for the Boston Celtics to easily defeat Los Angeles in the Finals, again.”
Oh please! Spare me. Are you going to add if Boston can “injure” Andrew Bynum? That is really tasteless.
I would love to see both teams play for the championship in 2010. It would be great theater. Your pathetic comments show your insecurity.
