-Brook Lopez

Please No!!!!! Trade up and get Robin in mid/late 1st.

Well at least it is good to know that if we draft him he wants to be here.

john2jer · Post #4 » by **john2jer** » Fri May 30, 2008 5:10 am

Of course he wants to be, it means a couple more bucks in his pocket, and no one competing with him for the starting position. What more could he want?

Apparently a trip to DisneyLand and the Neverland Ranch.

Or maybe the correct answer is... "to be McCauly Caulkin"

...Why couldn't Mayo say that?

That would be if he wanted more HANDS in his pockets and no one competing for PILLOW position.

I want someone who'd say something like: "I'd really love to play next to Mark Madsen"

I'd like to buy that man a drink.

we're screwed

i know we're going to pick this guy and regret it.

So would I. But you don't have to worry about the Wolves selecting me third overall.

"going to be" a superstar?

Seriously though, I think at this point I'm just looking for reasons not to like the guy.

whats wrong with that?

to me, if you've never been in MVP conversation, you're not a superstar

Al has plenty of work to do.

of course he does. he knows he's a below top 3 guy and he's wanting to move up as far as possible.

Devilzsidewalk · Post #14 » by **Devilzsidewalk** » Fri May 30, 2008 1:34 pm

I agree with you that Kevin Love is a top 3 talent, I'm not sure he's a better fit than Lopez

ugh.... My only hope is that Lopez is

Bet you don't want to hear that Love has a workout scheduled too eh? Probably won't draft him but still that is enough to scare me.

Don't let Devilz go or talk to McHale.

Actually, am not suprised. I would be dissapointed if we didn't take a good long look at everyone so we could measure all their strengths and FLAWS.

Kevin Love is Bill Walton minus the LSD and the foot injuries.

Some guys are just born winners.
