Lamar calls Lakers
Jim Hill of KCAL TV in Los Angeles is reporting that Lamar Odom called Jerry Buss yesterday Saturday July 19. He is apparently trying to repair any bridges that might have been burned by his agent Jeff Schwartz when he didn’t respond to a Laker offer.
I for one hope this is true. I want Lamar back. It will make a huge difference to have him coming off the bench. That is if he’s willing to do that again.
I don’t know what kind of contract players sign with agents (why is it that agents seem to have so much power over players when negotiations start. ie Trevor Ariza). Maybe they have to put all their trust in their agents and can’t enter contract negotiations. I have no idea. But even in that case can’t they fire them?
