Khloe and Lamar take NOLA?
Not so fast.
Lamar Odom was traded from the L.A. Lakers to the New Orleans Hornets on Thursday -- but then he wasn't, after the NBA rescinded the trade, which would have seen an exchange of players between the Lakers, Hornets and Houston Rockets.

So, on Friday, Khloe Kardashian's hubby, 32, skipped practice with the Lakers as he pondered his next professional step.
"To me, I would think it's better to stay away," Odom told The Los Angeles Times on Friday afternoon. "You know, the energy and all." (He had said earlier he was "shocked" by the trade and then "weirded out" by the nixed deal.)

But both Odom and Khloe, 27, were all set to move to Louisiana on Thursday had the deal gone though.
"I would go anywhere with my hubby!" Kardashian tweeted. "I ride or die for my Lam!... I can survive anywhere... People are acting cray! LOL New Orleans is a great place. As long as I'm with Lam I'm good."

Friday, Odom told the LA Times from home he wasn't sure when he'd return to practice. "I don't want to offend the sport and the professionalism. Right now, I'll be a fan of the game from the distance. But as of right now, I just don't know."















Tell Us What You Think
13Well now we know at least one Kardashian has a brain in their head, and understands how marriage works!
why does she seem to be the only kardashian who actually lives her life family first, fame and money second. she is by far my favorite kardashian.
I love Khloe and Lamar. Their marriage is real. They work out their problems like how a couple should. Kourtney and Kim should take notes from their sister. I just hope Khloe and Lamar gets the baby they have been waiting for.
I agree Tracy!! I love Khloe and Lamar!! They are an EXCELLENT example of what a marriage should be!!
Why can't all the Kardashians be like these two?
I am so tired of thes comments abt the K's it's ridiculous. I know it will take more than 200,000 signatures and that still might not get it off e...just don't watch it damm the girl made a mistake .I believe that Kris only wanted fame and why now everything is fake when he was on Keepin up with the K's he wasn't complaining abt that being fake or he was tricked.

Anna trhis is what marriage is... you are dedicated to your spouse...she seems to be in lov eiwht him...and how do you know she married the frist guy? were you there? stop assuming...seems you are jealous?
I hope he stays with the Lakers!!! Him and Khloe are a good couple.
of she'd ride and die for him she's desperate always been desperate.... she married the first guy who popped the question.... look at her baby talk to him so gross...she needs to get a life.
