As someone who also doesn't know how to swim, I can feel for what Lamar Odom is going through. Odom, being from Queens, NY, didn't grow up with many pools around him and being that he excelled in basketball at an early age, never had much opportunities to learn how to swim. Like most things in life, it's harder to pick it up when you're older and swimming is no different. I imagine it's even tougher to learn when you stand at 6-10 with a 7-4 wingspan while you have an annoying brother-in-law filming and mocking you the entire time.

Which makes me wonder, how many NBA players don't know how to swim?
