Expectations for Lopez

[jleckie602]

The guy has a few good games last year. Comes out this year plays like poo poo. Then gets injured because he is a weak player. He cant play in our system. And always seems lost and confused. Very slow moving. The guy at best is 9th 10th option off the bench.

Injury came from Duds rolling into his knees...........hardly from being "weak".............

I just don't understand why Warrick is not a great shotblocker considering his athetism. Also I am praying that the new lineup with Nash/Jrich/Hill/Frye/Lopez will shock us all (in a good way that is) =)

Yeah its kind of ridiculous. it was kind of the same thing with Amare tho... they can dunk on anyone, but can't block a shot and suck at defense? It comes down to desire and anticipation, i guess.

Jliecki, do u know what injury Lopez had? 2 slipped disk in his back? do u know what that means?? I dont think you do. On to more imprtant news, I heard lopez has his spring back. he doesnt need to fill the stat sheet just make his presence felt like barron did. I think he is a better finisher than barron.

what does that mean? lol

It's another way of saying cool story bro

10 and 10. Is that too much to ask from ROLO?

[jleckie602]

if rolo were to grab rebounds he would be a decent player. He cant grab any board unless it falls into his lap.

Probably.10 and 7 isn't out of the question though.

Not in the least! I think going into the year we were asking 15/10 from him.

The problem i have with him is (i dont know if he just has tiny hands like Kwame Brown), but the man cant pull down a rebound! As the ball is coming down he kinda punches it like a damn volleyball, most of the time one handed.

When we drafted him, wasnt he the twin that was supposed to be the defensive one? The one that could rebound? I know they said his brother was the one with the polished offensive game.

10/10 would be fine now, but i was expecting at least 15/10 TBH.

I agree, all of our expectations dropped after he started the season off so slowly. Hopefully it was all back related and he's healthy now. A 15/10 ROLO would help us immensely.
