    NBA Brook Lopez or Kevin Love?

    We've already discussed Beasley and Rose. Now, it's on to the two guys in the top 10 that everyone wants to avoid. But like Kingdom says, pretend that your penis is held at gunpoint and you have to pick one.

    Brook Lopez:
    Pros: is 7-foot tall and strong from head to toes, can knock down the 15-foot jumper, rebounds, plays D
    Cons: slow on his feet, less athletic than Kevin Love

    Kevin Love:
    Pros: can knock down the college 3, rebounds, fluid athlete (whatever that means), and my favorite: can lob the ball downcourt with ridiculous accuracy
    Cons: doesn't have the size to be an NBA center, doesn't match up defensively with 7-footers like Brook Lopez, slow on the open floor

    And both have great post skills, I think.

    I'm going out on a limb and saying 5 years from now, Darrell Arthur or Brook's sister are doing better. But ahhhh, I'll go with Love. He's at least got a fanbase working for him. Neither really have those "ceilings" everyone wants. Love seems to have better facets to his game, better at the little things. But he's more of a supporting actor than leading man for any crappy franchise drafting high.

    I'm going to with Love, I will take Lopez over Love simply because he can play D and he can matchup against the big men in the NBA, he wont get ***** slapped around like Love will.

    All you need is Love

    Fundamentally sound, doesn't look pretty but a very efficient player. I think he's more productive than Lopez in the NBA.
    I did a lot of good things as a sim league GM.

    Ah, give me something clever to say here.

    I would have to go with Love. He is a big man that can do so much more than just plug up space in the middle. One of the best passing big men I have seen.

    Looks like I was totally wrong on that.
