It’s interesting to note that Brook Lopez’s current field goal percentage is the lowest of his career by far (just 43%), but his three-point percentage, two-point percentage, and effective field goal percentage are all at career highs (37%, 57%, and 56% respectively). That’s how the math works out when two-thirds of your shot attempts are…

Brook Lopez 28 Points/8 Threes Full Highlights (11/11/2018)
I’m not even mad that Brook Lopez didn’t score any more points in the fourth quarter. His third quarter was, perhaps, the greatest thing I have ever seen a Bucks player do in all my years as a Bucks fan. Giannis has done some amazing things, Jennings scored 55 as a rookie (so long ago…

The new popular thing to say about Brook Lopez’s alleged “rebounding ability” is that he boxes out really well, allowing his teammates to get rebounds while not collecting many of them himself (4 of them in 37 minutes this game, while Giannis grabbed 18). That’s a cool idea in theory, but the problem with that…

If Brook Lopez is even slightly open behind the arc and he has the ball, that shot is going up. Every time. Literally every time. Usually when I say “literally” I don’t mean it. This time I do. I defy you to find even one clip of him passing up a three this season. You…

I’m not gonna lie, I was a little bit stoked when I found out that the Bucks went out and got Brook Lopez on a cheapo deal in the off-season. Do people use the term “stoked” anymore? Most people use “hyped”, but I feel like “stoked” is more about intense happiness and “hype” is about…

Brook Lopez grabbed 5 rebounds tonight! I didn’t show them, because I don’t show rebounds as a matter of principle (they are the lamest of the five major stat categories), but you do get to see one as part of a dunk. Obviously, I’m bringing this up because he didn’t have any rebounds last game,…

The title of this video is not a joke. Brook Lopez, who is 7 feet tall and capable of jumping at least a little bit, played 34 minutes, scored 27 points, but failed to grab even a single rebound. This is because he can only grab a rebound if a.) it comes right to him…

This description is just too easy. Too easy. It practically writes itself. In case you don’t understand what I’m getting at, I’ll say it outright: this was the most brutal and unforgiving REVENGE GAME in at least the past few years. Brook Lopez was pitted against his former team who traded him last off-season, and…

The stats tell us that Brook Lopez has had trouble adjusting to a different role in Los Angeles. Even after this vintage Blopez performance, he is only averaging 13 PPG on 42% shooting. This is after years and years in Brooklyn (a borough that is actually named after him) where he could be counted on…

Brook Lopez was only three steals away from a 5×5 in this game. However, we shouldn’t take it for granted that he got the requisite five rebounds necessary for a 5×5, considering he’s averaging just 5.4 RBG this season (by far a career-low save for the five games he played in 2011-12). Who’s stealing Brook…
