"After speaking with a league executive Tuesday night, Hoops Authority has learned that Odom is seeking a buyout from the Mavericks, with his focus set on taking his talents to the Boston Celtics or New Jersey Nets (Hoops Authority).
I don't believe this for a second. Cuban has said that there has been no discussions for a buyout. His father is sick and that's really why he isn't around, but fuck it lets have some fun with this.
Odom is having a terrible year. Whether it's because his head isn't in the "game", he's out of shape, or he just doesn't fit into the Mavs system, I dont know. Still, the Celtics are in such a need for a big man that you'd have to take a chance on Odom. I think we all know there is little chance Jermaine is going to be able to finish the year. His wrist is a mess, and he can't stay on the floor regardless. If he came to the Celtics is would certainly make the bench a lot better, and you could decide between him, Bass, or Wilcox starting.
The question is why would Lamar want to come here? Maybe he is so mad at the Lakers that going to their eternal rivals would be his way of pissing them off. If he was really willing to take it this far, then you would have to think he is motivated, which is one of the big questions about him.
Saying that, this isn't going to happen. There is little reason for the Mavs to do it, and on top of it if Odom wanted "revenge" staying with the Mavericks certainly gives him better odds of playing the Lakers. It's fun to dream though.
