Block party
Thank to 7-footers Robin and Brook Lopez, Stanford leads the Pac-10 in shots blocked per game at 5.3. However, they do more than just block shots on the defensive end.
“They change shots, and they can block shots as well,’’ UCLA point guard Darren Collison said. “You can probably get a shot over them, but they still alter it in a different way, and they make it tougher on you to shoot the ball. You have to really play physical with them. You have to get them in foul trouble. That’s really the only way you can beat them.’’
