I agree that Lamar Odom is a great player. He is the do all type of guy that is hard to find in the League. But do I think he is better than Elton Brand? No. Elton is consistant, and is, and allways will be a better player than Lamar. I think Darius will someday be better than Lamar Odom too. Here is a comparison of Elton Brand from this year with Lamar Odom of 00-01. (I did it this way because Lamar was injured allmost all year and his stats this year weren't flattering)

Elton Brand 80 80 37.8 .527 .000 .742 5.00 6.60 11.60 2.4 1.00 2.04 2.16 3.20 18.2


LAMAR ODOM*(00-01) LAC 76 74 37.3 .460 .316 .679 1.40 6.30 7.80 5.2 .97 1.61 3.47 3.10 17.2

Brand scores more points, grabs more rebounds, shoots a much better percentage (46% from a 6-10 player?), gets more blocks, and more steals, and is much more consistant.
