Lakers choices - Odom vs. Ariza

TheWiesguy · 06-17-2009, 07:26 AM

Newly crowned champion LA Lakers are facing some tough personnel/cap situations. It seems like they may have to choose between keeping Lamar Odom and Trevor Ariza.

Based on the playoffs it seems like Ariza is the more important player...how did that happen?

Because you never know which Lamar Odom will show up.

so true...plus it seems the league is becoming all about having some stoppers out there and Ariza is a good one.

There will be some tough choices for LA this off season for them to try and stay on top. Either player is very valuable to their chances to repeat, so I think they will do everything they can to keep both. That being said, I would stick with Odom if push comes to shove.

I would too...not to knock Ariza but I thing you are more likely to find a player like him with limited resources than a player like Odom.
