Don't believe you. Lopez will end up being considerably better.
 
SMH when I waz hyping this dude up, 80% of this forum thought he waz a bust waiting to happen. Now he's gonna be better than Kaman LOL.
 
I was one of them. I didn't believe in the great Brook. :sad:

90% of those people thought so because you were hyping him up.
 
I had no idea because I don't watch college ball. But I remember being extremely heartened by what Jay Bilas said draft night, which is that this guy was a flat out player, a multi-skilled big with nice touch and low post moves who was a big presence in the lane on both ends. He poo-pooed Lopez's supposedly poor combine scores in the agility drills, saying if you want to draft a guy to run around cones, draft someone else but if you want a basketball player, draft Lopez. He thought he should have gone 3rd and that we got a steal. He's a bright guy and he certainly watches college ball, so I knew there was reason to be optimistic. And he's been proved right in his assessment.
 
Granted it's a small sample, but I'd like to hear from those who were moaning about us picking up Lopez over Bayless. Do they still regret we drafted Brook?
 
Brook will be better than Kaman. i think he's bigger and slightly quicker than Kaman... Brook is playing at half a pace if that makes sense because he really doesn't want to be a liability in the D. he's been playing great so far and once he knows it like the back of his hand, his D will be much more smoothly....

Both guys have a good touch around the rim... wouldn't move Lopez ever!

IDK why, if you look at my track record a BBF.com

I'm the one that said Tyrus Thomas was a bust waiting to happen, I said Randy Foye was overhyped, I said batum was the best Euro prospect in the draft.

You also said Josh Smith was better then RJ; However, to your credit you rescinded that statement last year. lol

Now that I don't feel I need to defend RJ, I agree. Although RJ is still the better all-around scorer.

Yes, but Simmons is the better all-around player. nobody cares about RJ or josh smith.
 
Brook is certainly catching on fast. In five games as a starter, he is now averaging 14.6 PPG on 59% shooting. 69% FT shooting (no hack-a-Brook). 9.0 rebounds (3.6 offensive). 1.6 blocks. Just 3.8 fouls. 1.0 turnovers.
