clippers already said they not bringin him back
odom lost all his confidence once that kardashian show went on air..only kobe can save him

Ah, I didn't know that about Clips not wanting him. Obviously I don't follow their team all that much, haha. But would the Lakers really benefit from taking who the Clips don't want, even if he was a Laker before? Like I said, I never really liked him, and I feel like he did more bad than good. I just remember him missing a lot of shots when we needed them, but he'd make one big basket every so often that made everyone forget all of his prior fuck-ups.

Wesley Johnson. Bad signing, though he is cheap. I was hoping for lotto picks through trade, not by forfeiting the damn year. I am actually really pissed at Laker management right now. I can't believe Mitch did this.

LIKE I SAID, IT WOULD TAKE A PLAYER LIKE KOBE TO INSTILL CONFIDENCE IN ODOM....HE WAS JUST THE 6TH MAN OF THE YEAR IN 2011, SO IT'S NOT FAR FETCHED TO BELIEVE HE CAN RECLAIM SOME OF THAT GAME PLAYING BACK WITH THE PURPLE N GOLD

ARE U SERIOUS? WE NEED YOUTH AND ATHLETICISM ON THE WING, THESE WERE THE BEST PLAYERS AVAILABLE (NICK YOUNG, WESLEY JOHNSON, JORDAN FARMAR, CHRIS KAMAN). MITCH IS DOING A GREAT JOB... WESLEY JOHNSON AVERAGED 14 POINTS IN 29 MINUTES AS A STARTER FOR PHOENIX LAST SEASON. HE CAN BE AN ARIZA TYPE PLAYER FOR US.. CALM YASELF BEFORE U END UP PUTTIN YA FOOT IN YA MOUTH.

But he ain't starting over Kobe, and overall throughout the season he only averaged 8ppg. And his season high last year was 15 points. We need youth, but youth that has some up side. Wes Johnson is 26, he's as good as he's going to get and that ain't that good. Same with Nick Young and Jordan Farmar. (though I'll accept Farmar because he was on two championship teams with the Lakers and I think he'd be a great replacement for Nash if worst comes to worst. Kaman is alright, but he's replacing Howard and that's a downgrade, no matter what you'd argue. If the Lakers barely made 7th seed last year, this roster will only get 8th seed at best.
