Title: Lakers' Odom suspended for leaving bench area
Post by: 187Proof on March 10, 2009, 05:52:22 PM: NEW YORK (AP) -- The NBA has suspended Lakers forward Lamar Odom one game without pay for leaving the bench area during an altercation.

NBA executive vice president of operations Stu Jackson ruled Tuesday that Odom left the "immediate vicinity" of the bench after teammate Trevor Ariza's hard foul on Portland's Rudy Fernandez with 2.2 seconds remaining in the third quarter Monday touched off a skirmish between the teams.

Odom will miss the Lakers' game in Houston on Wednesday.

hes a bum

I don't know what the fuck his deal is

a straight beast for like 10 games and then looks worthless for the next 5

it's amazing he earns $100,000 a game and one last week was 1-2 FG and missed all 4 FT's

so embarrassing, he's probably bi-polar or something :laugh:

I don't know about that, Roy seems like he could hold his on. I've always been interested in the "what-if" scenarios between NBA fights. I especially wouldn't want to mess with Mbenga, Danny Granger, Matt Barnes or Al Jefferson. On the other hand, I remember somebody posting that about Garnett, who I would disagree with. He seems like just a really lanky shit talker, he doesn't really want to throw down.
