Pet peeve of mine, but I hate when people only use part of the description of insanity to fit their point. Insanity is repeating the same behavior and expecting the outcome to change when it clearly can not.

I'm not sure what games you're watching mate. Gortat's foot work is 100 times better. He can show on the pick and roll and recover, which is something Lopez can't do. Lopez has potential to be better than he is, but he's just not as athletic as Gortat and probably will never be as good either.

Scream with them. Wipe opponents out of the court. Aaaaargh. This is basketball. Offense? Yeah. When you catch the ball from opponents. No one shall pass. No one shall score. No one. That's the spirit of the game, not easy running and a lot of circus-like ****. No way. You can do tricks when it's 20-points game and 1 minute to go...

I saw from very, very close many champions. No one of them won by offense. If Suns want experience this on their own ass, OK. Let's do it. But there is other way: start doing like the mens do. Stand and fight. Whole team....


Damn, I need a cigarette. Well said, kind of.

Lopez>gortat? :lol: brian skinners teeth have more potential than lopez.
And yeah, chuck is right..


Did you watch any basketball last year? From January of 2010 until his back injury, Lopez was playing excellent ball. A few analysts said he could possibly improve to become the best center in the western conference (which isn't saying much...but still).

I expected him to average 20 and 10 this year.

This year he has been down right horrible. It's too early to tell if his **** play is due to the fact that Amare is no longer by his side attracting all the defensive attention or if he is just having a bad year.
