How is he a better fit? Odom plays no defense, doesn't rebound as well as Marion, doesn't finish as well either.
as i stated earlier... from the small forward spot, it would be nice if that player could handle the ball. why? because it would mean the death of the 3 guard lineup. with a ballhandling 3, cat and steve could play the wings for long stretches on offense...and you wouldn't see The Little Dribbler out there. the idea of moochie norris getting less than 10 minutes per game almost gives me a stiffie.
no matter what you may think, a good defensive team needs a good defensive frontcourt. adding lamar odom, along with another good center and some wheaties for eddie will make us a very good defensive team.
We definitely need a floor general who can defend opposing threes. That's why I was sad when Jalen Rose went to the Bulls. (I want his pg abilities, not his team chemistry abilities) Any college player who can do this?
