Ariza to the rockets

I could be totally wrong, but didn't Odom already take some kind of reduction in pay for the good of the team?
Actually the opposite. Lamar was making around 10 mil annually under the contract he signed in Miami. Thing is it had a trade kicker and instead of 10 LA has been paying him closer to 14.

Now LA is wanting to pay him close to 8 annually but he of course prefers 10 again.
