It doesn't really validate their career in the same way a title is supposed to for a player who's spent a good amount of their career with the particular team. That last 2003-2004 season, even if the Lakers managed to pick up a title there, it wouldn't really add to my perception of Karl Malone or Gary Payton as players or have that same effect of completing their NBA legacy. In a sense, it'd be a tainted title.

Lamar Odom is leaning strongly toward accepting the Miami Heat’s contract offer and leaving the Los Angeles Lakers, multiple sources with knowledge of the talks said.
Odom has not reached a final decision, the sources said, but there is growing belief he will ultimately return to the Heat unless the Lakers improve their current offer.

Only good new for me.
The Heat haven't made any progress with free-agent forward Lamar Odom
he is widely expected to return to Los Angeles.
