OFFICIAL ROBIN LOPEZ STATS THIS YEAR: 13 points, 5 rebounds on 53.7% shooting
OFFICIAL BROOK LOPEZ STATS THIS YEAR: 12 points, 4 rebounds on 43.1% shooting
The impossible has happened: Robin “Fropez” Lopez has better stats than his brother Brook “Blopez” Lopez. In the past there was a debate to be had over which Lopez brother contributed more to team success, but that debate was always clouded by the fact that Blopez’s scoring stats blew Fropez’s scoring stats out of the water. Was Fropez, with his defense and his efficient scoring, the better brother, or was Blopez, with his gaudy point totals and stretch-five status, the superior one?
Blopez has not fit in at all in Los Angeles, while Fropez can fit in on basically any team at any place in the tanking-to-contending continuum. It’s not outrageous to say that Fropez is better. And that’s what I’m going to declare right now. Officially. Robin Lopez is better than Brook Lopez.
