Lakers veteran forward Lamar Odom says that he still doesn't know how to talk to NBA referees.

"And I'm in my 10th year," Odom said, saying he'd been fined "lots of times for all kinds of things. Maybe in my 11th I'll know how."

Odom added that he has a couple of ways to handle issues.

"When I come in here for my pregame prayer, I always ask God for composure," he said. "I try not to be too emotional."
