Los Angeles Lakers Lamar Odom To Miss Premiere of Reality Show Because of Oklahoma City Thunder Game


Los Angeles Lakers forward Lamar Odom will be on two completely different channels tonight.


Odom and the Lakers will be hosting the Thunder with a 9:30 EST tip. Odom and his wife will be on a half hour later.


If the Lakers lose tonight it will mark the first time they have gone on a five game losing streak since 2007.


Currently holding the No. 2 seed, Los Angeles is one game ahead of third-place Dallas and two ahead of fourth-place Oklahoma City with three games still to play. The Lakers own the tiebreaker over both the Mavericks and Thunder, and can lockup the second seed with a win over the Thunder, coupled with a Dallas loss Phoenix.


Odom is competing with Jason Terry for the Six Man of the Year Award. He has averaged 14 points and eight rebounds a game and as really concentrated at the defensive end of the floor. Sportbookpro.com thinks Odom is more than worthy:



"This season Lamar Odom was one of the biggest All-Star snubs along with LaMarcus Aldridge (Portland Trail Blazers). Not only has Odom put up solid numbers all season long, but he has been one of the biggest reasons for the Lakers success as of late and is more than deserving of this award."



He will need to help contain Kevin Durant if the Lakers expect to win with his strong combination of length and athleticism.


If you want even more of Lamer, switch the channel over to E!. His new reality show entitled Khole and Lamar is set to premiere tonight at 10 EST.


Watch as Lamar gets in trouble for not paying enough attention to Khole. Not quite the same as watching him get yelled at by Phil Jackson for not passing out of the double team but it should be entertaining.


Get two-for-one Odom tonight on a T.V. near you.
