i have the same thoughts about lopez, but you can't teach height
If you could teach height, I'd start with Lopez.

They've both seem to have found their place with this team and gotten comfortable with their teammates. Brown still has bad shot selection at times, but he's been a lot better after the all-star break. I like that he's moving without the ball now and attacking the rim... both Nash & Telfair have found him cutting backdoor to the basket along the baseline for easy dunks (like Barbosa used to do).As the season has progressed Sebastian Telfair and Shannon Brown look like keepers. I'm off and on about Lopez. Some games he looks more than serviceable as a backup center and then other games like today, he appears to be totally uncoordinated.

Telfair has ramped up the defensive intensity and improved his passing game. He trusts his teammates more & has learned where they like the ball & where they can be effective. He seems to take responsibility for that second unit & you could see how much he cares by that frustration ball slam when he wasn't the one making the mistakes that forced the timeout.
