#1 The Rumor: Lakers forward Lamar Odom for Kings forward Peja Stojakovic and Kings guard Bobby Jackson.

The Reason: Odom needs the ball in his hands to be effective but that honor belongs to Kobe Bryant. Stojakovic requested a trade in the offseason after Chris Webber criticized unnamed Kings players for lacking toughness

#2 The Rumor: Jazz forward Carlos Boozer for Lakers forward Lamar Odom or Lakers forward Caron Butler.

The Reason: Larry Miller recently criticized Boozer's inconsistent play, prompting a face-to-face meeting between the Jazz owner and Utah's prized free-agent signing.

Sacramento's Chris Webber, New York's Kurt Thomas, Toronto's Jalen Rose and Donyell Marshall, Indiana's suspended Ron Artest, Memphis' Bonzi Wells, Portland's Damon Stoudamire, Nick Van Exel and Ruben Patterson, Miami's Eddie Jones and the Lakers' Lamar Odom were among the names being bandied about in trade rumors over the weekend.

I would do the Lamar Odom trade for Peja/Bobby Jackson. Especially if we can pull the trade for Caron Butler and Carlos Boozer.

PG Bobby Jackson (once he gets healthy next year) / Chucky Atkins
SG Kobe Bryant
SF Peja/Jumaine Jones
PF Carlos Boozer
C Chris Mihm

Not a bad young line up.

P.S. according to Jack Haley the Laker trade is: Lakers were going to trade Butler, Vlade Divac and George to Utah for Carlos Boozer. - LA Times.

 

that line up will be one sick fastpaced line up. if it were to happen i'd say TITLE.
SHAQ WHO? jus watch its gonna come together soon for us laker fans and something is gonna happen.

 

THe Maloofs will not give up Peja and BJax for Odom. It might be fair in $$, but definately not in talent. True Bobby's been injured a lot, but man when he's healthy...

Anyways, i too do not see anything happening till next year.

*I wonder if Kobe asked management to trade Odom...I kid i kid!

 

Thursday is the last day!

 

I think if anyone's going to be moved, it will be Devean George. His statement this morning in the paper sounded like he packed his bags up already...

 

if he goes, others are going too. He's not big enough for a 1 on 1 trade.

BOOOOZE is coming
