Lopez is in his 3rd season. You were looking at his college years, as well. Still, he does have back issues, but it's not nearly as bad as you are inferring.DoNDaDDa wrote:

jj has reached his ceiling, he's not getting any better, you know what you're gonna get from him. dd is just starting to scratch the surface of what he can do. i dont know what you expect of a 21 year old kid playing against the most talented and athletically gifted players on a nightly basis? he was raw at usc and he's raw here. there's more to playing in the nba then just showing up and taking the floor. you have to be comfortable with your coaches, the locker room, your role, yourself. if he was 28, i would write him off too. if you base your comment purely on showing up and playing then fine, but if you're smart enough to factor in all of the outside factors, you would probably be a little more forgiving. have you ever played competitive basketball? if you did, you would probably respect the team dynamic and what it means as a rookie/sophmore/young player entering that atmosphere. further more, i'll use t-mac and his time with the raptors as an example. similar player, similar build, similar game. what happened? he looked lost at times, inconsistent, showed flashes of brilliance. young raw players take time to develop, period. he's a gym rat, he'll get there.
if my idiot fan boy reference struck a nerve, maybe thats something you need to deal with . . . .
Bizarre thread. Colangelo has shown nothing but patience with his top draft picks. He gives them lots of time to develop. During 3 years of Bargnani is a bust, get him the hell out of town hysteria, Colangelo stuck by his draft pick and said give him time to develop and he'll be very good. He will give DD the same latitude. DD fits into his new strategy to develop young talent going forward. If I were setting the odds in Vegas it would be something like 1000:1 against DD being traded anytime soon.

not at all... but id be more willing to listen to your opinion without seeing the insults to other fans on this forum. this place is ment to discuss all things raptor related, insulting other members is just counter productive....
my apologies, i've spent waaaaaay too much time reading posts on here and raptors republic by people who lack insight on the topics they choose to comment. freedom of speech is a right, as is mine to criticize it, i promise to be more tactful in the future
shut up ya douche!
(just kidding, lol)
ya i just noticed that. not as bad i first assumed i guess but still not good..
Goran Dragic (heir to Nash).
no prob. ill admit i dont agree with alot of things i read aswell but i do try to not throw around insults. i usually just agree to disagree & move on.
how about bargnani for a 1KG bag of peanuts??
I hope your not serious
Whatever you say 2pac
How about any more comments like that and I'll be kicking my own ass
All I got to say is that you don't trade a player you consider important to the future for a player who looks like a white Reggie.
Just when I thought the f'n Bargnani crap had ended - just for a little while - we get stuff like this again.
