@Ali The Lakers are going over the camp to keep that team in take. Odom walks way before Ariza. Huge age and consistency difference.

Then again this is not taking into consideration the revenue from the playoffs

About Ariza and Odom, I think that Ariza is still doable as long as the Pistons are willing to overpay a little. I’d say that Odom is willing to go down to $9-10 million, which opens up a good $5 million. However due to the increasing design of the Lakers’ contracts, a lot of that $5 million will be instantly sucked up next year.

I think that if the Pistons hand out a good contract of around $8-9 million, they have a good chance of getting Ariza. Its worth it because he’s much more durable than Tayshaun and will be the guy to finally slow down LeBron (or at least guard him one on one to take out the teammates), not to mention he seems to have an extremely high ceiling.

@John

Agree about Odom & Ariza. LA made an additional $48 million from all those home playoff games.

The Lakers are keeping both of them. Championships make more than enough money to pay the luxury tax.

Remember back in ‘07 when the Lakers “agreed” to trade Kobe to this us but Kobe used his no trade clause. I bet the same thing would’ve happened that happened with a.i.

Here’s the realgm article:

i think they’d keep ariza over odom

What d’ya think of Ariza?

I doubt the Lakers can keep both Ariza and Odom, most likely they’d keep Odom.

My exact thoughts when I heard about this today.

I really want him to become the coach of the Pistons!

Why else would he resign from the Shock after another successful championship season, eh?

Yeah this is true. It could be pretty sweet. Gordon, Bosh, and Laimbeer. Can u say dynasty. Yeah maybe we can whisper jus a lil bit.

So like Jessie Jackson once said. “Keep hope alive!!”
