Lopez, hopefully he will remember that he is a Center and not a SG when it comes to rebounding.
Noah is a health risk and a healthy Boozer will continue to hamper his stats.

Lopez. The rebounding will come back a bit (he'll never be a stud there but I would bet he gets back to his 09-10 level) and he should continue to give you the solid offense. The guy did put up 8.1 Rebs in 30 minutes two years ago. Noah and Boozer really bring each other down, and its not like that situation, from a fantasy perspective, is going to improve any time soon. Noah hurts Boozer more then Boozer hurts Noah but its still a drag on his value.

Lopez. I'm not even expecting Brook to get back to his 09-10 rebounding while Humphries is playing PF, but I do expect an overall efficiency bump thanks to D-Will, and hopefully a small uptick in blocks. He could easily be a 21/7 guy with nice peripherals, and I'll take that over a fragile Noah who plays next to Boozer. I like Noah, quite a bit actually, but he's a round or two farther down my draft board than Lopez.
