I love Odom's versatility and all around game .
Butler is great, but Odom is doing wathever is needed to get a ring.
Great teamplayer and a big reason why they will :pray: win it all this year.

Big fan of Odom when he's on top of his game. He is just a matchup nightmare waiting to happen.

With that said, I'm going with Caron Butler. When healthy, he's extremely consistent, a dead-eye shooter, a pretty decent defender, a very underrated passer and rebounder, and does wonders for team chemistry. The Wizards would have been doomed this year had it not been for Caron, since Gilbert was hurt basically the entire year. For the first few months, I saw a lot of people had Caron in their top-10 in MVP voting -- he was doing that well.

Butler is the better player. Granted its in the easy, Butler took the Wizards, stepped up as the best player on that team, and carried them to a respectable record and a playoff birth. If it had been Odom, I can't see him doing that.
