Brook Lopez posted a full line on Monday with 27 points (11-of-15 FGs), 10 rebounds, one assist, three steals, four blocks and five 3-pointers in a 101-100 win over the Rockets.
Lopez has shown us recently that he definitely still has it, but it hasn’t come consistently. Two games before this one, he had 29 points, eight rebounds, eight “stocks” and five triples. He followed that up with a modest five points in a loss before going off again in this game. The norm should be somewhere in the middle, but he has been very hit or miss so far this season. There aren’t many players that can hit 3-pointers and blocks shots at the same rate as Lopez, and when he gets going, he can have some special performances.
