Seriously though, I hope to hell you're right.

Re: Tiago Splitter = Brook Lopez
I hope your right, but splitter playing like robin lopez is more of what im expecting from splitters in his rookie season. but if you say hes more of a brook lopez type of player then my expectations of the team this year just got higher.

Re: Tiago Splitter = Brook Lopez
Lopez has about an inch and 30 pounds on Splitter and he's probably the better athlete, but I think their might be a similarity to their game. If this was NBA 2K10 I'd say Lopez's rating is an 80 and Splitter's would be about a 76. :lol

I heard it too, but I'll be disappointed if I don't see more out of Splitter than you do Varejao. If anything, his midrange jumper should make a world of difference between the two. It opens up a lot.

Re: Tiago Splitter = Brook Lopez

Re: Tiago Splitter = Brook Lopez

You're way off man, take it from me, I've been to Vegas many times, although not this year, and Gary Neal is exactly = Mario Elie 2.0! (except for the toughness and defense of course)

Re: Tiago Splitter = Brook Lopez
Tiago Splitter is that white dude right??? I wouldn't expect that much from him Spurs fans....at least not the 1st year
:elephant

Re: Tiago Splitter = Brook Lopez
I really done see the Robin Lopez similarities. Maybe defensively they are similar (although i think Robin is the better defender).. but Splitter is the more polished offensive player and has more weapons in his arsenal. The key difference is Splitter should be able to create his own from time to time by operating on the block, where as Lopez hasnt got the offensive game to do that.
In terms of game style, i think Brooke Lopez is the better comparison, although this doesnt mean Splitter will be as good, i just see similarities in their game, albeit slightly watered down similarities.

Re: Tiago Splitter = Brook Lopez
Brook Lopez is a bit bigger, he's an inch taller and is much longer.
Lopez's Wingspan-7'5.5
Splitter's Wingspan-7'2
Standing Reach
Lopez-9'5
Splitter-9'1.5
Splitter weighed in at 233lbs while Brook is at 260.
Splitter seems to be quicker though
Lane Agility Lopez-12.77 secs 3/4 court sprint 3.57
Lane Agility Splitter-11.65 (that's a huge difference) 3/4-3.38
Keep in mind these stats were taken 3 years ago for Splitter.
Right now Splitter is around 250lbs. I think Splitter will be a better defender than Lopez but I don't think he'll be able to match Lopez's offensive production.

I hope to god that Lopez isn't too soft because Europeans can be too soft.

The style of play over there is much more physical than the NBA, Splitter's also a pretty physical player as well, he's not soft at all.

Re: Tiago Splitter = Brook Lopez
Lopez can shoot from mid-range. But according to timvp, Splitter hardly shoot.
p.s. I live in China and Yi Jianlian is like Duncan or Garnett in their prime years here.

Re: Tiago Splitter = Brook Lopez
You guys are really funny. But at the end of the day, I am just happy that the Spurs' FO gave us something to look forward to year after year. Whether it is Tiago Lopez, Gary Bryant, or James Anderson Roy.
I know you guys probably think I am crazy, but I am really grateful that we have R.C. & Pop. We lost so many talented managers to other NBA teams, but somehow we are able to keep R.C. and Pop.

I'm looking forward to seeing if he can guard Dirk. If he can't, we still have McDyess, of course.
