If the Lakers could get Marion for Odom and Cook they should jump on that. Marion has one thing that Odom doesn't and thats HEART. I also think that Marion would help the D and would fit the system better than Odom.

Than send Kwame expiring contract for Howard. Minnesota has said they would take and EX for him his presence in the paint would be a plus and would more than make up for Cook they would also probably get someone else to cover salaries.

Fisher, Kobe, Marion, Howard, and Bynum

Farmer,Turief,Mihm,Crittenden,Luke.

They stay health this squad would make some noise in the wild wild west
