Lamar Odom proposes an interesting new starting five for the Lakers

Losers of four games in a row, the Los Angeles Lakers are in great need of something that will get them back on track.

Everyone seems to have an idea of what may work for the team. Many are suggesting various things, from hypothetical trades to lineup and rotation changes. There is also a growing group of fans who are practically begging for head coach Darvin Ham to be fired right away.

Former Lakers forward Lamar Odom, who was a two-time NBA champion while with the team, feels a change to the starting lineup may be the elixir the team needs (h/t Lakers Daily).

Odom feels moving LeBron James to the point guard position, the position he played when the Lakers won the world title four seasons ago, would be a prudent decision. In addition, he thinks Austin Reaves and Jarred Vanderbilt should be given back their starting jobs, while forward Rui Hachimura should also start.

While this lineup would give L.A. lots of defensive length and versatility, it would weaken its bench offensively. In addition, James would be saddled with a heavy load when it comes to playmaking, as Reaves isn’t a natural playmaker or facilitating guard.
