I mean, for a guy that is 6'10, he sure does handle the ball well. He kinda reminds me of Dirk Nowitzki in the sense that he has some outside game, and not just post game. Although, he is more athletic than Dirk. Hell, I think it is kinda weird that the Lakers let him push the ball up the court like he is a guard, though. You dont see many teams that let a PF or a C do that.

Re: Why do people not give Lamar Odom enough credit?
Maybe because he's one of the most inconsistent players in the league -
Re: Why do people not give Lamar Odom enough credit?
Yeah, Odom might be the biggest flake in the league. I've been saying it for years, he is completely capable of being the best player in the league on any given night. If you take someone who has no clue who the best players in the NBA are, make them watch a Lakers game, and then ask who the best player is, theres a chance they could say Odom.As Shaquille O'Neal left the Suns practice court, he yelled out, "Alvin's the coach. We must be the Clippers. And I must be Olowokandi. Nooooo!"Comment

Re: Why do people not give Lamar Odom enough credit?
I've never seen a pro miss more layups than Odom. His bball IQ isn't great and he never really lived up to his potential IMO."You make your name in the regular season, and your fame in the postseason." - Clyde Frazier

He has the skill to do it all, extremely versatile. He's just so inconsistent.Comment

Re: Why do people not give Lamar Odom enough credit?
This..
Lamar frustrates me to no end because of his inconsistent play and what makes things even worse is how skilled he is.
If he didnt have as much talent I would be okay but he's way to up and down. There are times I wish the Lakers would just trade him and be done with it.Comment

Because he's the type of student that could get straight A's with a little effort but settles for C's on a regular basis...Comment

Re: Why do people not give Lamar Odom enough credit?
Lamar Odom might be the biggest waste of talent I've ever seen in the history of the NBA. Seriously, the guy had/has the skills to be a top 15 player of all-time, and he's absolutely blown it. Waste. WASTE.Comment

Re: Why do people not give Lamar Odom enough credit?
Yeah he is extremely talented but he is extremely inconsistent. He wasn't that bad when he was at L.A. Clippers but he really started to slide once he was traded to the heat then to the Lakers, i still would take him over quite a bit of players in the league since he is a good role player.Comment

Re: Why do people not give Lamar Odom enough credit?
Lamar gets criticised way, way too much.
Very good player...people expect too much. The man carries the ball half the time, point forward skills are soooooooooo under apreciated...
He's the key to the triangle working. Two rings = time for people to ease up.Comment
