Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant is pretty sure it’s only a matter of time before free agent Lamar Odom re-signs with the team.

“I’m optimistic that he’ll be back,” Bryant said during his news conference in Singapore. “He makes us a much, much stronger team.”

The only other team currently interested in Odom are the Miami Heat, but they arn’t even offering him as much money as the Lakers are.

Odom would be retarded not to sign back with the Lakers. Los Angeles is the perfect fit for him and he’d still make a shitload of money.

Why leave?
