Robin Lopez: Joining his twin

[kriegs]

 

[bleedwineandgold03]

Not a bad signing to be the back up better than Ed Davis

 

[NMCav]

I'm glad we got a nice backup Center. Much better then Moses Brown or Ed Davis.

 

[Kuiper]

Vet minimum deal

 

[Alec]

Vet minimum. You'll take that every day of the week.

 

[Kepler]

we got nerdy centers

 

[Lyuokdea]

Nice!

 

[Lyuokdea]

Between him and Allen, the Cavs are making a strong push to get back the hair that we lost when Varejao retired.

 

[PIP]

Wanted this dipshit at the trade deadline.... Perfect backup big for this squad...

 

[Mott the Hoople]

Somebody invite Lopez to a G's game so he can take a picture with Josh Naylor.

 

[Douglar]

I can reuse my Varejao wigs again!!!

Yasss! Great veteran for locker room and funny guy overall.

He was one of the reasons why Markkanen had a good rookie and sophomore year:

Robin Lopez is a Special Teammate, and is Helping Lauri Markkanen in several ways

As if you needed another reason to love Sideshow Rob

And he keeps things professional off-the-court too:

Bulls rumors: Robin Lopez, Lauri Markkanen extinguished a rebellion

Things could have gone from bad to worse.

"A preliminary plan was to gather at one player’s house and wait for the phones to begin buzzing. That plan fizzled because Lauri Markkanen and Robin Lopez spoke up, voicing their concerns about the unprofessionalism of that potential act of rebellion, as well as the impact such a stance could have on the roster’s younger, less established players, sources said.”

Also, I'm up for some new funny bench reactions.

I’ve always liked him. Seems like he’s money in the post.

Here comes another non-shooter!

Oh man. Whatever. RoLo is an entertaining character... but he's strictly a low post dude and can't switch anywhere close to the perimeter. He will NOT ever, EVER be high up in pick and roll defense. A drop guy through and through.

But seriously, our whole 5 rotation is completely unable to provide any spacing. If you don't think that's scary, I don't know what to tell you.

Perplexing move. Why not just hold on to Moses Brown? Neither guy can/will shoot but Moses is 27 years younger and can get up and down the floor.

 

[ice cream man]

Yes. Great signing. He can take advantage of a little guy in the post (something our backup C’s last year could not do) and will be at least somewhat useful against the Embiid, Jokic type guys.
