Even though Odom was huge in the Finals. I still think he is not worth a 4 year deal. They should have kept Ariza and let Odom go. Plus with Artest, playing small forward, the Lakers will own without Odom.

I just hope he is more of a "hit" rather "miss" next year.

Odom will be 34 at the end of the contract, I really don't see that as a huge liability.....

It's not his age that's a liability. It's Lamar himself.

I think FUJ is referring to his lack of hustle at times and concentration on defense.

Sweetfish has it partially right. The other part is the amount Lamar is paid. I wouldn't have nearly the issue with Lamar's output if he was getting paid accordingly. For the past six years, LO has been getting superstar money but was anything but a superstar (other than that stupid star he shaved in his skull.) With this new 4 year / $33M contract, he's still getting well above his market value.
