Lamar Odom to NBA Development League

   The Dallas Mavericks Management had officially assigned Lamar Odom to the Texas Legends in the NBA Development League.

   Odom was traded to the Dallas Mavericks for a first-round draft pick and an $8.9 million trade exception after David Stern vetoed a proposed three-team trade with the New Orleans Hornets involving Odom that would have sent him to the Hornets, Chris Paul to the Lakers, and Pau Gasol to the Houston Rockets

    Odom last played for the Mavericks last February 20 and missed all of the Maverick's game since the start of All-Star Break.

According to inside source, Odom was out due to family matter. 

Coach Rick Carlisle said Odom will return Sunday.

“He has to come back and play his (butt) off,” Carlisle said. “He’s got to play hard, got to be into it and that’s it.”

   Lamar Odom was adjudged as the  NBA Sixth Man of the Year Award last season after posting an averaged 13.5 points, 7.5 rebounds in 28.4 minutes of the bench. 

Derron Willams owned Jeremy Lin

   The NBA All-Star point guard from the New Jersey Nets just proved to be overmatched against Jeremy Lin as he scored a conference high 38 points on 8/10 shooting from the three-point area with 3 rebounds and 4 assist to lead the charge for the nets. 

    The game also marked the returned of Carmelo Anthony who was sidelined after suffering from a groin Injury Last February 6. 

Jeremy Lin scored 21 points, 7 rebounds, 9 assist and 4 steal , an all-around game but failed to get a support from their All-Star players Carmelo Anthony and Amare Stoudemire who scored 11 and 17 respectively. 

   Prior to the Knicks vs Nets game, Lopez wasnt able to play due to unspecified reason after playing against the Bucks, while Baron Davis had played his first game wearing New York Knicks jersey and was able to score 3 points in less than 10 minutes. 

   Brook Lopez who suffered from broken right foot since the Season started had nine points and two rebounds in less than 22 minutes agains the bucks last saturday. Upon Lopez activation from the injured list, Jordan Farmar will unlikely be out until the All-Star break due to groin injury who averages career high 10.5 points this season.
