hahahaha I HAVE watched them both play for Stanford and Brook got some decent post moves dude. Robin is all about energy. Noah and Varejao ain’t got no shit moves in the post.. Brook’s game is Kaman-like and not based on pure energy alone..

I think Lopez is pretty solid, he actually has a feel for the game. He is less of a “potential” guy like some of those other draft busts and more of a polished guy with a skill set. His style of play reminds me of Tim Duncan. Then again, have any of these Stanford bigs ever turned out to be any good? (Todd Lichti, Adam Keefe, Mark Madsen, Curtis Borchardt, Collins twins, etc)

@Truth and Imu

Brook Lopez isn’t Varajou or Noah. He’s a legit 7 footer without any athleticism that doesn’t play D or rebound and has one of the lowest release points I’ve ever seen for a big man despite his post “skills” being the big reason he’s getting this hype.

Robin is an okay defender/rebounder that’s being touted as a Noah or Varajou when he averaged 5 boards per.

BOTH WILL BE BUMS. THE CLOSEST THEY ARE TO AN NBA ARENA 10 YEARS FROM NOW IS SELLING HANDIES BEHIND STAPLES CENTER FOR $5 A POP.

Amen to that Blue.

Also, to me it makes the most sense for the Clips to go for Bayless if they traded down because they could likley get Eric Gordon at 7

f*CK what them analyst is talkin about. I seen both them sh*tty dudes play for stanford this year, and they BOTH remind me of Noah and Varejo. Stop listening to Jay Bilas dude. Watch them cats yourself and tell me them sh*tty dudes is skilled. If you can tell me some bullsh*t like that, you don’t know basketball at all!

if the Sonics draft Lopez instead of Bayless and Bayless ends up being the next Arenas and Lopez ends up averaging around 8 and 5, this is gonna be another in a long line of huge mistakes in taking a big man in the lottery instead of other people drafted later who end up being a lot better.

just because they lucked out with the second pick last year and it was a no-brainer, people all of a sudden forget the three or four years straight before that. Swift, Saer Sene, Johan Petro…
