    What a week for Gasol. I imagine Odom's name was thrown around for it too.

    Odom and Gasol had to be neck and neck. The thing with Gasol is, his stats often go unnoticed in the game. We've come to expect him to put up awesome numbers so when he does, we kind of just look over it. Is week was just as good as, or even better, than Odom's.

    I'd give the nod to Gasol, he gets the most attention and Odom plays much better with him in the lineup. LO awoke last year after the Pau trade, not as much vice versa.

    Duckman, stop ruining our threads.

    Here are the numbers.

    Stats: Points/Rebounds/Assists/Blocks

    Gasol: 20.5/10.75/6.50/1.00
    Odom: 18.5/14.50/3.25/1.25

    Pau had a triple double, too. I think he was more deserving. We were just shocked by Odom's performance more because we aren't used to him producing like that.
