Los Angeles Lakers

Outside the Staples Center in L.A. yesterday, Dyan confessed the type of brownies she makes for the guys: "The good kind. The kind that'll help the Lakers win today."

For the record, the Miami Heat cooked the Lakers' collective geese ... 98 - 80.

Piven shot alongside L.A. Lakers hero Rick Fox ... who missed all three of his attempts.

Just days after his teammate Ron Artest dropped his explosive single ... Pau -- aka The Singin' Spaniard -- hit a North Hollywood recording studio yesterday to bang out a song of his own called, "Get It Together."

Along with T-Pain, Ron Ron performed his new song "Champion." It was almost as good as the version Ron did on

On January 5th -- one day after TMZ broke the story that title to the 8,347 square foot Tarzana, Ca mansion was held in Lamar's name alone -- Odom filed a new legal document to make the mansion JOINT property.

According to the prenup, Lamar has the right to keep the home in his name alone -- so the move is a pretty big sign of how Odom views his marriage.

And they said it wouldn't last...

The question is ...

It takes five gun-toting men to keep Kobe Bryant from stepping on the basketball court -- we're told the superstar had to miss a Los Angeles Lakers practice this morning in the wake of a violent robbery in his neighborhood.

Sources close to the team tell TMZ Kobe was issued an "excused absence" from a team shootaround at the Lakers practice facility this morning.

Unfortunately for the Utah Jazz, we're told Kobe is expected to play tonight.

TMZ has learned Lamar Odom and Andrew Bynum were each pulled over on the 405 freeway in the last few days.

Odom was popped for speeding -- law enforcement sources tell us he was going more than 80 miles per hour.

Bynum was busted for shadier circumstances -- cops say he had illegally tinted windows on his Mercedes Benz.

We've learned two high-powered family law attorneys are already squaring off, trying to hash out the prenup Odom wants as a condition to marriage. Neal Hersh is doing his bidding, while Lisa Meyer is repping Khloe. We're told the negotiations -- which began last Friday -- are already contentious.

Our sources say the couple will tie the knot -- legally -- once the prenup is inked.
