Is Anthony Randolph comparing himself to Odom a good thing?

Question

I guess it's somewhat true. They both are both bigs with a wide range of skills, but still. Is Lamar Odom the guy you want to be compared to for the rest of your career? Can you think of a better comparison?

Answer 1

he plays exactly like odom

like an aggressive lamar odom

Answer 2

He ain't Lamar, not even close. Anthony is what 6'10''? and he can't rebound for shiet. He's a Jonathan Bender

Answer 3

is this anthony guy lefty too ?

oaky

i cant really make the comparsion yet cuz i havent seen this play but if he really got talent and skills i am pretty sure he doesnt want to be comapred with LO...

Answer 4

A comparison of style doesn't matter, but should he play in Lamar Odom's attitude night after night then he is putting himself in real jeopardy.

Anyway, I am looking forward to seeing him in preseason games.

Answer 5

Maybe Chris Bosh? I think its the comparison to Odom but without his inconsistencies.

Answer 6

I would say Chris Bosh or Maybe, not sure bout this one but Rasheed Wallace w/o the attitude.

Answer 7

Anthony Randolph is kinda like Lamar, except he can't rebound and push the break like Lamar

Answer 8

if lamar odom actually put time in the gymand didnt drift off into space every 5 games. then yes its a good comparison.

both are lefty and and can play like a big or a gaurd.

lamar gives you 12 rebounds and 15 points a night even though he is somewhat inconsistent offensively, h**l always rebound though

Answer 9

What up Corey,

i think the comparison is just more of a statement of the uniqueness of his skill set for a guy his size.  There are few guys 6 foot 10 that can handle the ball the way Lamar can.

Also Golden State has quite a bit of talent on their roster that if Randolph developed into an Odom they'd be scary.  Off course minus the inconsistency- actually Odom would be an all-star type player- if he could bring it every night.  

i don't think nobody wants Odom- i just think he's over-paid and he is mentally for some reason not able to bring it every night- and tends to disappear from time-to-time which is still mind-boggling- if he ever puts it together- which is doubtful being that he's been in the league for so long- he is a threat to get a triple double every night.
