I think the whole reality TV thing took him bad places, and then the double whammy of the Laker trade sent him spiraling, and he can't seem to find a safe haven. |
And also his scum bag father came back into his life during this period and his scum bag best friend died recently as well. |

I'd also like to say (bleep) Khloe and (bleep) the whole Kardashian family for taking advantage of a nice guy like Odom and using him for their media agenda and then dumping him out when times got tough. |

This is shocking - have they gotten him back to consciousness yet? I'm praying for the guy. |

People also forget that he also lost a child and was involved in a deadly car accident...wouldn't be that much of a stretch to find out he had PTSD.
I just hope he pulls through this. |

I don't know if some of you realize the seriousness of this. He can't breath on his own, and is on life support. |

Of course they aren't Khloe is the only person that matters to the media you know the woman who still hasn't divorced him after all this time despite being with other men.
Lamar isn't a saint obviously but I'll try to avoid the Khloe is a martyr narrative that will come from this.
James Harden better see this as a wakeup call but he won't. |

I feared this would happen. This is so sad. I love Lamar for what he brought to the Lakers, but beyond that he always seemed like a great guy.

Damn. Pull through, Lamar. Seriously, you can't let that become the first line in your obituary. Gotta outlive it. |

OK I saw this on the General forum and wondered why there wasn't much response. I know TMZ has a rep for getting scoops on celeb news very early, but I'm going to need this one to be INCORRECT. |

That's the tragedy-- "us" includes players, executives and a who's who throughout the league and media who at least suspected this outcome. _________________ -Avenue of the Champions- -RIP Dr Buss- #824 |
