Take Suns sophomore Robin Lopez, for instance. For half the season he was a bust, a plodder who seemed lost in Phoenix's helter-skelter system and generated unflattering comparisons with his more successful twin brother in New Jersey.

Then, magically, it all changed. The Suns inserted him as their starting center on Jan. 15, and he's thrived, averaging nearly a point every two minutes while shooting a sizzling 61.7 percent from the On Friday against the Clippers he shocked the masses by erupting for 30 points and 12 rebounds; his team, meanwhile, has won 13 of its past 16 to stem a precipitous midseason slide.

Watching Lopez dive down the lane on pick-and-rolls with Steve Nash and aggressively finish at the rim, it's hard to believe this is the same player who looked so mechanical and awkward in December (or his entire rookie season, for that matter). As a result, Lopez is the captain of the 2009-10 In-Season All-Improved Team.

Really? Which bloggers have daily access to the team and management? Which bloggers are credentialed for every game and travel with the team?

The concept is a bit dubious. Bloggers are more open to speculation. I'll give you that.

dude before u just dismiss the blog actually check it out. This guy has access to players and the locker room! He regularly posts post-game audio he records after most games. That sight is great for articles that are actually true, not just the official crap that never offers any actual insight. look at the sight before u judge it

Hush! He knows Coro, so he trumps your logic. ;)
