Ran into Odom yesterday getting a MRI at Kerlan-Jobe.

Smel Counts

For what it's worth. Perhaps precursor to physical in event of a trade?

Or just checking to see how his shoulder is holding up going into All-Star weekend.

Doubtful, probably just a check up on his shoulder. Unless KG or Duncan are coming to the Lakers, don't expect to see Odom traded.

Duncan or KG? wtf is Odom a superstar?

I don't know. I think Larry Brown is in love with him and he'll win any power struggle w/ Isaiah at this point. I don't know if we can get Frye out of them, but a combo of Penny, Lee, Robinson, and Ariza gets us some good young triangle friendly talent while losing Odom's contract.

It's probably a regular appointment to check his shoulder. The Lakers won't send him in for a physical just in case they get an offer for him. That's the other team's job to give the physical - after the deal is done.

But they know the trade can't be rescinded if he fails their physical. They just gave him one and he passed. Odom would probably also be agreeable to being traded to his hometown of NY.
I'm also just speculating. Most likely it was just a checkup, but there is some validity to it.

did he happen to jump out of the mri machine with less than a minute left on the timer, by chance?

Something else right now I would be willing to bet huge on. You would have problems getting the Lakers to include Dev in a deal next week. Dev is the bench these days. He found himself again and, has become a welcome sight into the games. If you're talking about improving this squad getting rid of Devean would not be the route to take. Not on this day...
