08:03 AM ET 06.25 | After the draft-day non-blockbusters, it appears the names will remain the same for the Lakers. If the Lakers trade somebody, it's almost surely Lamar Odom, mainly because of an attractive contract that pays him a bargain-like $8.9 million next season and a partially guaranteed $8.2 million in 2012-13.

#1. Has the Buss family gotten KoME's approval to trade Lamar? Mike Brown was eating KoME's **** y/day when he stated that he preferred him over King James to take the last shot. When the universe go one day without trying to diss the King?

King has every diss he gets coming to him. He needs to shut up and play and get some heart!

Odom has lost his passion for the game. He has been on cruise control since he signed that contract so any team that picks him up will not get his best... not to mention all the extra crap he's into. His contract is good but his basketball value is minimal at this time and won't change cos he's getting older and he's deeply rooted in the drama business of the ugly kardashian.

OMG, are you drinking ALREADY this morning??? Lamar won the "Sixth" man award last year. I have to agree with you that he doesn't show up for some games, but he has not lost his passion for the game. Also what in the hell does "ugly kardashian" have to do with anything? Maybe, just maybe, you are a little jealous of his lifestyle!!!!

Listen you low expectation ignorant mofo. Given his talent winning sixth man should be an insult to him and the Lakers franchise. He's way better than that. Now on the Kardashians we all know he's dating the ugly one. I mean that's a universal fact. If you don't agree with that you don't belong on this planet. Now no one is jealous over someone that settles.

Now here's some facts of Odom:

He's settled for a bench role.
He's settled to date the uglier of the kardashians.

This clearly shows he doesn't go for the best or try to work for it which proves he has no passion or desire for the best.

Maybe this is a personal thing but when I'm dating a group of girls or sisters I always go for the best looking. That's just me though... I don't go for 'take one for the team' girl.

It's the best or nothing but with Odom everything is all good. He's a lazy enwaigeegeeay.

Lostwill, apparently you don't know jack C-H-I-T about basketball, it doesn't matter if a player comes off the bench or is a starter, it's all about the total minutes that are played in a game. Now as far as his "personal" lifestyle goes, I couldn't give a rat's A-S-S who Lamar dates or is married to, as it has absolutely nothing to do with his playing skills (IMO Odom is a solid player), but everything is good as I'm sure it is your opinion and opinions are like A-S-S holes as everyone has one!!!!

His Sixth man trophy is a joke...The guy started the most games for any sixth man winner ever....Also like Lost said the guy has more talent that to just be a sixth man but since he has a I could careless attitude that is where he is instead of being a star....

Now I can agree (FWIW) with you comment. Lamar does seem to plays a little lazy at times. I don't think anyone is saying that Lamar is a "Great" player, but IMO he still is a solid player that has some trade value.

No doubt but I think some ppl overrate him value....But if you are a team trading for him you want the in-the-game difference make LO instead of the flow-through-the-game and not make a difference one...And with making that kind of money at his age I just dont think his value is high as some thinks...

I agree. At the same time, they got Kobe and need to make some changes. They gotta make a move and roll the dice.
