Lamar Odom Headed To Dallas After The Lakers Pulled Out Of Chris Paul Trade

Instead, the Lakers are on the verge of trading Lamar Odom to the Dallas Mavericks in exchange for the trade exception the Mavericks picked up when Tyson Chandler went to New York. Presumably, the Lakers will now use this trade exception to get Dwight Howard from Orlando. The moral of this story? I’m not sure, but isn’t Howard a more dangerous fit in LA than CP3? Maybe it’s not too late for Dan Gilbert to send a sassy e-mail?
