The Lakers will trade Lamar Odom to the Mavericks for a traded player exception worth approximately $8.9 million.

The move is not necessarily to pursue Dwight Howard, as sources say it is a "straight salary dump". But it is difficult to imagine the Lakers trading Odom to a Western Conference rival to merely save money.

Dallas will send their own first round pick in 2012 and possibly a second rounder as well.

The Lakers shopped Odom around the league to teams with cap space.

"He wanted out and they really wanted to reduce the tax bill," said one general manager.

I wish he was traded to Toronto or San Antonio, that'd put the marriage on the rocks.

I freaking hope the Lakers do not get Howard. At least if he goes to New Jersey it doesn't make them an instant contender, they still have to build like every other team not name LA or Miami.

Chris Paul should be sending a few lads around to see Mr Stern after he put the kybosh on that deal as well.
