I am in favor of just about any deal that gets LO out of LA. His dispassionate attitude really irks me along with his terrible jumper and bad finishing ability. It's not a coincidence that the Lakers lose every game where Odom takes 15 or more shots.

If Francis gets traded and we're involved, think three way. We don't want Francis. Odom won't be traded for Steve Francis. Cant happen.

o, my bad then, jus tryin to keep updated, first time its surfaced on a site other than l.g or a laker fan site.


ooo, jus saw this on Francis's page on espn.com

Status Alert: The Lakers are "aggressively" pursuing a trade that would send forward Lamar Odom to the Magic for Francis in a multiplayer deal, Orlando Sentinel reports. (Feb 19)
Guess something might really be going on.

Try bounty but, if you were running for an election right now with that platform you would lose by a landslide!

I know you asked to have my sigs moved
but you dont seem to get it. I DONT CARE WHAT OTHERS THINK. What election? Are you 5? SF>LO. period. You have yet to make anargument as to why he isnt. You cant Tell me where LO is better. You cant. Either validate an argument or go away. Please stop crying its a lil bit weak


First of all I could care less about you're juvenille siggie there bro or, maybe you wouldn't have had it as long as you did.

Next you are the one with the constant tears. All you've been able to talk about all season is getting rid of LO. So who is crying again?
Also I got news for all of ya'll... LO will be here next week as well!

In fact you're going to be beyond crying soon my man, you are about to become a complete basket case. The Lakers no better than to add Stevie to this team, I'm just in this silly ass argument for the pure pleasure of being absolutely right...

OK. The argument where LO will be an all-star this year? Or the argument where LO will get the tri by the all-star break? Maybe it was the guarantee, errrrr I mean you said you would disappear if LO didnt show up. Why are you still here? Lets do this, dont respond to my posts. I am sorry having your quotes in my sig offended you. lets just leave each other out of it. Everything... EVERYTHING you claimed LO would be hasnt come to fruition. If it had he wouldnt be getting shopped. The_shoes, Im sorry, I didnt mean to offend


HHHHhhhhhhaaahahaaaahhohohhohohohhhoo!!

I can feel your anguish and oooooooooooooohhh what a rush!
I love it!

LO!LO!LO!LO!LO!LO!



Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnddddd now introducing your Los Angeles Lakerssssss!!

At Forward, from Rhode Island!

LLLLLLLLlllllaaaaaaaammmmmmmmmmmaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrr

Oh and, if you want confirmation on the fact that I did no such thing I dare you to ask JD if I complained. I did not! It ain't my style to do so. JD makes everybody clean up there siggies if he deems them inflamatory. Don't blame me. You lasted a pretty good while with that so why did'nt I whine about it in the first couple of weeks?

Where I come from we fight our own battles. I haven't told on anybody since 1rst grade. Gimme a break dude. This won't work. Ask JD if he heard from me if you don't believe me...

I don't mind not talking to you though. It is better to talk at you anyway! AT this point bounty your hopes and, dreams have been slashed. The only raincloud in the sky flies above your head. As it drops the moisture down on you, children are pointing and laughing at you. Santa Claus just scratched your name off of his delivery list. Your parents may even consider asking you to change your name. but, at least bounty you will still have me to give you all the attention you can possibly get from one individual...

Bananas dance for the man!!

Too bad, if true.

Either Francis or Martin would have significantly improved this team.

Agree with the bolded.

But I think Denver wants to cut salary. I don't see them taking on Francis no matter how much Karl is pushing for that. They have to max out Anthony plus possibly match offers for Nene. Don't forget that Kenyon starts for them and they would want a big back - atleast a servicable one that can back up for 20 mpg.

Plus - what the hell is Dre Miller on that team for?

I don't buy that sort of deal at all.

we're talking bout francis as only a pg. isn't it a possibility to play stevie at the 2?

a line up of smoosh, stevie, and kobe could work.

if not, bringing francis over simply moves george into the starting lineup. his rebounding has been great lately. he'll automatically take up some of the rebounds lost by odom being traded. plus, francis is one of the better rebounding pg's in the game. and our defense steps up a notch with devo over lo.

i think it can work with francis. his numbers this year are down due to all the trade talk and other issues he's had.

they're actually complaining in orlando that he's not looking for his shot enough. being too passive. which is not the complaint you here around here.

we need someone with agression. especially scoring agression.

francis can hit the outside shot when kobe's doubled and swinging it out for jumpers, but he can also go to the hoop and finish. he's not one dimensional.

i like lo. but my disappointment is growing. especially at the end of games. something needs to be done. we just can't sit here. i am not willing to ship mihm. i'd only look at moving bynum if something very serious was coming back. brown has no value. so that leaves lo.

plenty of us want him to be around. he's the perfect third fiddle on a good team. but much like caron last year. if something is to be done, he's unfortunately our only option, other than bynum.

Unless we were actually gonna go three-way and pick up T-Mac, KG, or
Lewis as had been mentioned casually - that can only be good IMO.

Die Francis-rumors, DIE!

He's not getting them in the post...

This year - .88 bpg

Year in MIA (in the post) - .89 bpg...

Where's the big difference?


Different Conference and different team. If you go back to the first 2 years Odom was on the Clippers (when he was healthy) he did much better.
