Well, this is unexpected. The Lopez twins just squared off, and Robin (henceforth referred to as Fropez) MADE MORE THREE POINTERS than his brother Brook (henceforth referred to as Blopez). Fropez was 1/1 from deep; Blopez was 0/7. There is a phrase which references the rotation of tables that I think applies here. Not only…

I was hopeful that every single shot in this video was going to be a hook shot, but my hopes were dashed when it turned out that Robin Lopez threw a couple garden-variety layups in there. Layups are kind of like hook shots where you’re shooting from in front of your body instead of from…

There was a time, early in the season, when Robin Lopez was probably the Bulls’ best player. All the young talent was looking young and untalented, while he was getting buckets and being a reliable player. Now some of that young talent is looking pretty sweet, and Lopez is just more of the same. I…
