"""I guess that means I'm a Laker if the trade didn't go through. I don't know what to do for the Lakers. I'm even weirded out by the league doing what they did. I don't know what to do.  Imagine how Pau [Gasol] feels. Pau came to the Lakers and played here for four years, went to the Finals and lost, won two NBA championships and then got swept [by the Dallas Mavericks this year]. Wow! Imagine how he must feel.  Man, I'm just in total disbelief about all of this. They don't want my services, for whatever reason. I don't know what I'm supposed to do. I was proud to be a Laker, so I'll try to help them in the process as much as possible."" - Lamar Odom on the current trade/non-trade situation between the Lakers & Hornets."
