LA times has Odom listed as questionable for tomorrow's game

Radio cited "unnamed" Lakers source (*cough* john black) that indicated that Odom probably would NOT play tomorrow and may be out for Game 6, as well. Fantastic!

Dude's not doing anything against Houston anyway. It's only against the Jazz that he looks like a HOFer. The other 70 whatever games he looks like an 11ppg bench player.

The Jazz should trade for him and make him their centerpiece!

That would be a very Jazz thing to do. They love to sign guys who play well against them. Odom fits the bill.

It is a good strategy, as it gives them lots of options.

Is this idea of putting your hand in a shooters face somehow new to many people? This was taught at every basketball camp from Thurl "Big T" Bailey to Rick Majerus, that I attended as a youth. Reading the links that Grace provided point that many who love to comment on sports clearly have never played them.

But did Rick Majerus teach you the 6 inch defense?

I was only 13 when we went, so I think he called it the 5 inch defense.

Phil gettin' frustrated, but not embarrassed. Oh and he like everyone else is falling in love with Aaron Brooks, Fail Blazers missed again.

Never mind. I guess Odom will play tonight. Sounds like he isn't really healed.

This game is boring and dumb.

It was nice to see the "Good Lakers" show up tonight. I guess this means we will see you all back in LA for Game 7 on Saturday!

I wonder how many "Rockets have heart" stories the media will run tomorrow? And whether Plaschke will be all over the Lakers' tip tomorrow in the paper?

A few thoughts:

Jax is too loyal to Fish. Fish needs to sit down in this series. He should not be starting on Thurs.

Why is Lamar playing with a 30-40 point lead? Maybe let him rest his back?

That Kobe/Lebron Nike commercial is great.

Daddy,

I've decided to rip off your schtick--only with a slightly different twist. Rather than take offense, consider it flattery.

No offense, whatsoever! You can call me Carlos Boozer.

I am all for the ever-increase of Lakers playoff mojo. Except it should be 9 now.

That muppet commercial with Kobe and LeBron was hilarious. More entertaining than the game for sure. Mbenga sighting.

Larry Drew got the slight nod over Norm Nixon for #10. I almost hate to do it out of fear of bad mojo, but nevertheless I present The Gangsta Hoopah for #9!
