i’d like to see the Lakers keep Odom and take Artest at the same time…but it’s long shot. i love how Odom plays but his defense suck and gets easily frustrated. whereas Artest as a one time defensive player of the year.

look at it this way. the leagues MVP and one of the leagues premiere defenders? wouldn’t you take that instead?

If the laker’s can get Artest without giving up Odom, that would make L.A. Lakers most feared team in th NBA. I don’t care what others might think but Lamar Odom played great in the playoff with Pau Gasol, with time Odom can become great offensive treat when Gasol or Bynum in the post. because of his ability to cut and finish at the basket, Also Lamar can take most PF of the dribble, If the lakers can get Artest without giving up Odom that will be great. If Not I rather keep Odom any day.

Hey DJ,

That would definitely be an interesting experiment. But look how well it turned out for the Nuggets. They had Iverson and Melo two of the top 5 scorers in the league this year adn clearly the highest scoring duo. But it killed their flow on offense as a team and they sucked balls.

Probably would be the same for McGrady/Kobe cause they both need the ball in their hadns a lot to be effective. The teammates would get no touches.

My favorite trade would be T-mac to L A. Kobe and T-Mac would be the greatest twosome in the NBA and would easily score 50 to 60% of the points every night.

I’d rather have Odom then Artest any day. He fits a lot better into Jacksons system. plus, why mess around with a team that went to the finals last season?

Ron Artest to the Lakers would be a good move for both Sacramento and LA.

Odom is a solid player, but Artest would bring much needed toughess to a very finesse group.

Artest and Kobe would be amazing for the Lakers. Imagine Kobe, Artest, Fisher, Gasol, and Bynum. C’mon that would be unstoppable.
