EDGE Analysis

Lopez missed a ton of threes against a New Orleans team missing Anthony Davis (hip), but he's on a bit of a roll now, scoring 20-plus points in three straight games while shooting over 50 percent from the field. Still, it's a bit alarming how Brooklyn has shoved Lopez completely to the perimeter. He's grabbed just 17 rebounds over his last five games, while hoisting up 26 three-pointers. That's ridiculous for a seven-foot tall human being with a legitimate post-up game.
