Sweet baby Jesus, lay your healing hands on Lammy… Lamar Odom Rejects Clippers And Lakers Teammates’ Offer For Help During Intervention Looks like this thing is going to get worse before it gets better… Via RadarOnline The situation is dire — drug-troubled basketball star Lamar Odom rejected intervention attempts by teammates from the Los Angeles Clippers and his former team the Los Angeles Lakers, late on Monday afternoon, in a Los Angeles hotel room, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned. The dramatic talks lasted three hours during which Odom, 33, appeared to be under the influence of a substance, a source inside the room said. “There was a bit of time it appeared that Lamar was going to admit publicly his addition and go to rehab, again,” the source told Radar. “But then, he abruptly bolted from the hotel and left the premises.” It’s believed he is now hold up in another hotel.

This is extremely serious, but there is really nothing anyone can do to save Lamar unless he wants to save himself.” The source said there was evidence that Odom had been under the influence of a controlled substance during the intervention. “Lamar was sweaty and talking very fast.
