The Lopez Twins

[el gringos]

Where will these guys be next season?

Any chance they go somewhere together? Orlando?

Ish will be funny when everybody is bitter and "surprised" about how big of contracts they sign. And how many are "surprised" that brook gets more than robin

B Lopez would be so much better of a signing for the Knicks than Greg Monroe would be

They can't play together and both are starting material, so I don't think there is a chance they play together.

Orlando doesn't need a centre...they have one locked up for a loooong time

I don't see Robin leaving and I don't see Brook opting out

[lilandywiggins]

Yeah, Robin finally found a good fit, he is staying. Nets will look to ship Brook, but it all depends on a deal happening.

Yeah, I think them playing together was the dumbest suggestion I have heard in a while.

Do you think they believe that about themselves?

The thinking around the NBA is that Brook Lopez will opt out of his contract with the Brooklyn Nets and re-sign on a max contract.

Lopez has $16.7 million remaining on his contract for the 15-16 season.

“If he walks, where are they going? They don’t have draft picks. They’re flip-flopping their pick [with Atlanta]. They’re getting the 29th instead of the 15th. For their future, I don’t see how they can lose him,” the GM said. “If Brook wants to stay there, he should be able to get whatever he wants.”

Lopez was nearly traded multiple times at the deadline, but the Nets kept him and he played some of the best basketball of his career.

The Nets can offer Lopez an extra season on his next contract.

“Why would they let him go?” an exec from the Central Division said. “Everything I see, he’s a good kid. And he can [bleeping] play.”

“If he leaves, then they are starting all over again,” yet another rival executive said. “He has proven he is healthy. There’s no question he’s always been a good basketball player. The question was ‘Can he come back from the injury?’ He’s shown he can, especially the last two months.”

I thought brook opt in also but they say he's opting out.


Let's say Aldridge leaves Portland. Then do they still pay robin a huge deal? Or is Portland then going to bring in brook as well?

[Genaro]

Brook should sign 5 years now, Nets are probably giving the max to him and if he's healthy he deserves it.
The way his healthy is better cash out before he's hurt again. Even with a new cap space situation, he better not risky it.

[Haymaker]

Nets should trade Brook now that he's healthy. He's injury prone.

Orlando doesn't need a centre, considering we passed on him during the Dwight trade as well I don't think even if we did he would be on our radar.

True, also Vucevic is awesome.

True, just need a defensive power forward next to him. I'm intrigued by Porzingis in the upcoming draft after reading abit about him, supposedly he has a nice jump shot but is athletic and people think he could become a solid NBA defender with his length and speed.
