Lamar Odom continues to deal with a bone bruise in his left knee, which Vinny Del Negro blames on the Los Angeles Clippers trying to make up for arriving to camp out of shape.

"He was trying to battle through [the injury], but it got to the point where it was not making sense," Del Negro said. "So that was when he changed the process for him. He knows he needed to be in better shape coming in. They tried to tax his body a little bit and this is the result."

The Clippers hope Odom is available for the regular season opener.
