Love Lopez next to Love. Love covers the one thing Lopez does poorly.

With their second pick of the 2011 CelticsBlog Draft, the Miami Heat, (aka South Beach Samurai), select 7'0", 265-pound Center from San Joaquin Memorial High School ...





Brook Lopez





:)


Nice pick.


Yup Love will make up the rebounding here. They compliment each other pretty nicely. Well besides the fact they are both slow. Still a nice combo in the paint.

Wit the 7th pick in the 2nd round, the Phoenix Suns draft Andrew Bynum.
Been the best player since Bosh came off the board.

Excellent pick. I liked Lopez for Bahku, but I like Bynum even better.

Disagree, there are better players on the board. Even a center I'd rather have.

When healthy, I agree that he is the best player this round after Bosh.

Very nice pick.

B.Lopez struggled a bit last year but I think he'll recover nicely next year. Get his rebounding back up to where it used to be.

K.Love + B.Lopez is a very potent offensive combo. Two of the best jump-shooters at their respective positions. Highly skilled. Lopez has a nice post game and Love a developing one. Nice inside-outside big man duo.

Yeah, the health is always the question with Bynum. Still Bogut, Boozer, and ______ all have similar injury questions.

Meanwhile _________ is just an inferior player to all three but less risky.

I really wanted to draft Bynum over Bogut, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. 30+games missed per season, and his breakdown this year in the playoffs. I thought Bogut the more steady option to anchor my defense.

But if Bynum ever gets it together for a whole season, he's a dominating force.

Love that pick. Thought seriously about him too. But, I just chose the better (although more stupid) player to pair with Stoudemire. ;)
