    Odom's contract expires in 2001.The Clippers will pick up their 2001-02 team option, so he's locked till 2002.
    There should be few teams able to submit a maximum qualifying offer to him, and ...
    Question - Do u think the Clipps will be able to match that kind of contract, and if not ..
    Question 2 - Will they trade him during the 2001-02 season, and if they do ...
    Question 3 - Should a package of Fizer and perhaps Artest, be enough to take him away from them?

    Hey tybrave....err....I mean Roy. Welcome back, I guess.

    I don't think the CLips will be able to hold on to Odom. Now, if the team gels this year, which I doubt, and gets some wins, maybe Odom would be willing to stay. Some time ago, I posted an article on Odom, and he stated it was very difficult being a Clipper and he felt sorry for the new guys coming in.

    Who knows. I doubt the Bulls will be able to draw Odom in. Going from the Clippers to the Bulls is a baby step in the right direction, but only a baby step.

    Roy, it's nice to have you here playing nice with all the other BBS posters, but please try to post in the right place, the NBA forum. When I saw the thread title, I was hoping you were going to talk Odom/Rockets and not Odom/Bulls.

    Anyway, I think he'll try the free agent market unless the Clips become a much better team and start contending for the playoffs over the next 2 years.
