Check back regularly for more videos. Jordan Farmar is trying to make a dream of his come true: to build a green room at Mattel Children's Hospital UCLA, where kids could come in and forget about all of their medical treatments, even for just a little while. To make it happen, Jordan is in need of a lot of money, so he recently held a special fundraiser gala to help raise money. In this exclusive video we visit the party and catch up with Jordan, his family, Luke Walton and Marla Gibbs of The Jeffersons.

Lamar Odom: “The Games I Played Well Were the Games I Ate Candy For Breakfast.”

Via Dime  |  July 29, 2009
This might be old to some of you but we’re just seeing it now. We found this while we were looking for something else. Skittles, Now & Laters, and Starburst jellybeans are apparently the stuff of champions… And here’s a piece ESPN did on his candy obsession during the Finals: Dude wakes up in the middle of [...]

Lamar Odom and Jerry Buss Letting Egos Stand in the Way of Lakers' Future

Via Bleacher Report  |  July 27, 2009
Jerry Buss, Lamar Odom, we get it. We understand how both of you have bruised egos at this point and are upset about how each of you feels "spurned" by the opposite party.  Get over it. Odom feels that the Lakers did not show enough interest in him, that they did not pursue him hard enough, and that they didn't offer enough years in the contract offer that they...

Ron Artest Sells Out Show In China

Via Dime  |  July 27, 2009
I’m sure all Los Angeles club promoters would love to have Ron Artest make an appearance at their club, but would never let him perform any music on their stages. So instead, Artest brought his music overseas to China and must feel that his swag is at an all-time high because the fans in China [...]

I’ve always wanted to take a trip to Asia. Between the rich, ancient history, the unique cuisine and the chance to see Ron Artest perform live, I think I’d have a good time. Now thanks to my man Rahn Johnson I now have another reason to call my travel agent and book a flight. Feast [...]

Oddsmakers see Lakers as NBA favorites, with or without Lamar Odom

Via Spurs Talk  |  July 27, 2009
By Lance Pugmire 5:35 PM PDT, July 27, 2009 No reason to panic, Lakers fans. Whether free agent Lamar Odom stays in Los Angeles or leaves for the Miami Heat, Las Vegas bookmakers said Monday they don't anticipate anything that would drop the Lakers from their perch as preseason favorites...

A logical endgame: Udonis for Lamar

Via Sun Sentinel  |  July 29, 2009
So the Lakers don't want to commit significant long-term money to a 30-year-old Lamar Odom? Understood, considering where they find themselves against the dollar-for-dollar luxury tax. So the Heat isn't as concerned because just about all of its salaries come...

The Los Angeles Lakers Are the Favorites to Win Even Without Lamar Odom

Via Bleacher Report  |  July 28, 2009
Since the beginning of the offseason, I've been very optimistic that Lamar Odom will be coming back to the Los Angeles Lakers. The switching of Trevor Ariza and Ron Artest, coupled with Kobe's optimistic outlook in Odom returning to his rightful place, supported my hopes of Lamar coming back. But the road to bringing Odom back has been filled with speed bumps along...

According to a report from ESPN's Bill Simmons, the Houston Rockets attempted to cover up much of Ron Artest's unique behavior during the 2008-09 season. Artest nearly missed Game 7 of their series against the Lakers. *Artest missed the first two team buses (the ones for players, coaches and...

Even in His Prime, Will LeBron James Ever Reach "MJ" Status?

Via Bleacher Report  |  July 27, 2009
Most critics believe that Kobe Bryant is the closest a player has ever come to being considered the next Michael Jordan. Even still, he is a very distant second. Nothing against Bryant, because I am a huge fan, it's just the fact that Jordan was honestly that good. With the defensive pressure and scoring prowess that M.J. brought to the court night in and night out, it's...
