we could then ship odom for a good starting pg and backup small forward

Absolutely. I was at Florida while he was there. The man is a tireless worker who can rebound and out hustle pretty much anyone on the floor.

If we did pick up Lee there would be no need to re-sign Turiaf tho.

This is falling in to place all too nicely.

Two trades:

Farmar for David Lee

Odom for Felton, Gerald Wallace, Sean May

Felton has the potential to be one of the best PGs in the league and he is a tenacious defender. Wallace is a stat stuffer and plays very hard (needs some more work on his shot). Sean May has been an injury waiting to happen but I must admit I wanted him in the draft with the Bynum pick (happy with Bynum now bow

)

Larry Brown loves Odom and can't deny the expiring contract.

Fisher/Felton (eventual star-ter)
Bryant/Sasha
Wallace/Ariza/Vlad Rad
Gasol/Lee
Bynum/Turiaf

With Felton on the ball and Bynum in the paint our defense would be very good for years to come.

Cats and Knicks are discussing a Lee for Felton swap, I don't see them considering Farmar when Felton is a much better PG than Farmar will ever be.

^ There is a reason Felton was a top 5 pick and Farmar wasn't.

You think Farmar can be a 14 & 7 PG starting in this league?

He's too selfish to average more than 4 APG for his career.

No offense, but do you guys actually BELIEVE this stuff you're writing? Good grief, the Knicks wouldn't give up Lee for Artest, yet they're going to let him go for our back up PG? That's just ridiculous. Yes, it is possible that one day Farmar might become a 14/7 PG, but the point is he's not proven to do that. David Lee can get them a guy who is doing it versus a "maybe one day" player/.

The other trade is just dreaming. Yes, Odom is worth more than Wallace ... they were trying to trade him for TJ Ford before the J'Oneal trade - but to think we'd get Wallace, Sean May AND Raymond Felton? Come on now, guys, let's stay somewhat realistic with these trade ideas.

Also, why do those who come up with these ideas, always have to say, "I know someone who knows someone in the Lakers organization who said..." Let's just admit we have an idea instead of putting that silly disclaimer on virtually every single trade thread that gets started. Have the guts to risk getting flamed instead of pointing to some phantom insider source.
