Lamar Odom has not been able to find a comfort zone since being traded to the Mavericks. He has made no qualms about the fact that he is still upset with the Lakers over the way everything went down, and that has clearly affected his play in Dallas. As a result, the Mavericks announced that they were demoting him to the D-League last week. They then lost to the Hornets Friday night — which was their fourth straight loss — and decided to promote Odom back to the NBA roster for Saturday’s game against the Jazz. The Mavs beat the Jazz and Odom played fairly well, scoring nine points and grabbing five rebounds.
As you can see from the video above from TMZ.com, Keyshawn Johnson does not agree with the way the Mavericks have treated Odom. He disapproves of the D-League demotion so much that he even dropped an f-bomb in front of his young daughter and wife, saying that Odom should ask Dallas for his release because he can still ball but might just be “homesick.” You stay classy, Keyshawn.
