Kuetsar Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 So Jerian Grant and Zings might be for real, Derrick Williams is playing with tons of energy, and Melo doesn't look totally crippled. The Knicks could actually be fun this year. Well until Matt Barnes kills Derick Fisher anyway. Or Isiah Thomas' coup.. . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomAct Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Of all the guys we picked up this offseason, I didn't expect to be the most surprised and impressed with John Jenkins. Lowkey great pickup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burgundy LaRue Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Yeah, it's been said he's on breathing tubes and may have taken too much herbal Vigara. I hope he pulls through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlfredoE Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Odom news is very sad. Hope he pulls thru, but every time I check, news keeps getting worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgundy LaRue Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 It seems that he wasn't fitted for breathing tubes until he reached the hospital, which took longer than usual because he couldn't fit in the medi-copter due to his height. I'm hearing that he may already be brain dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greggulator Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 It's a total shame. I saw him play at Rhode Island and it was just unfair watching him on the court compared to the children who were trying to guard him.He had an absolutely crazy upbringing and has had a ton of problems. But, by all accounts, he's one of the most beloved guys in the entire NBA. Other players absolutely love him and say he's the epitome of a dude who will give the shirt off of his back. Read somewhere that he'd have D-League guys come over his house and they could stay until whenever they felt like leaving. And he was also a total weirdo of a player in the best way possible -- a square peg who found a way to get crammed into round holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Of course the Kardashians are all over the place at the hospital and brought a bunch of camera crew with them. Oy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Mann Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Of course the Kardashians are all over the place at the hospital and brought a bunch of camera crew with them. Oy. Gawker and TMZ debunked Radar's version of events. Which is good because that would have been abhorrent. I don't care that they want to be media whores, but Odom is obviously in no condition to refuse having a circus around his possible death bed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muhammedboehm Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Plus there is the messy fact that one of the Kardashin Klan is his wife and unless he has another person listed as his power of attorney for medical decisions she would be who the hospital would turn to.

Burgundy LaRue Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Supposedly, the divorce was finalized in July. But who knows--did they actually sign the final decree or no? This is going to get really messy, and Odom's kids and their future are in jeopardy, no matter what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The report I saw said the Judge didn't sign off on the paper work so for all legal perpeces they are still married in the eyes of the court.

Ace Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 A lot of people are blaming the Kardashian fame for Odom's woes. I think it was the botched CP3 trade. His psyche was never the same afterwards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 The Kardashians didn't help matters. He was obviously a guy with mental health issues and they continued to exploit that on their television show for their own gain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlfredoE Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 A lot of people are blaming the Kardashian fame for Odom's woes. I think it was the botched CP3 trade. His psyche was never the same afterwards. that entire year was a mess for him. He was in that car accident that killed someone in the summer. A lot of people had mentioned he was already emotional because of that, then the trade went down, then it didn't happen, then he got dealt to the Mavs. Not to mention the Kardashians. He had issues before that deal happened, but you're right it screwed his psyche even worse. LO's had a difficult life. He should have stayed away from the Kardashians, but that's all part of being famous especially in LA. Can't get away from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
