    There is a reason why Aldridge is doing so well. Lopez is a big part of that

    Let's not get carried away. We're playing the Jazz. He wasn't exactly turning away lay-ups at the rim against the mid-pack Mavs.

    Asik 'may be' better than Lopez, but I don't believe he'd make the Blazers better than Lopez does. Basketball is about synergy.

    I'm not just talking about numbers though. Our offense is so much better with Lopez than it was with Hickson. A lot of what Lopez does will not show up in a box score. I'm not even disputing that Aldridge is our best player, but I'm just saying..... I love me some Lopez!

    Lopez to Portland was the most important offseason move in the entire Western Conference. The entire league really.

    We've seen Lopez play well more than just this game! And he played damn well against Dallas. Did you fucking watch that game?

    LA has really matured as an NBA player. He just seems to get it.

    He's good, but he's not nearly as important as LMA, Dame or even Batum.

    But then he visits with a couple of fans (one looked sick). Total class act.
