Robin Lopez talks defense, his brother, and the biggest pop hits of the '50s and '60s

The New York Knicks shocked many casual observers this summer when they handed a four-year, $54 million contract to center Robin Lopez, a guy who has never put up eye-catching numbers in the NBA. But we here at P&T knew better -- this guy is not only the defensive anchor the team has been missing since prime Tyson Chandler, he is a natural showman. He certainly showed as much during Media Day.

Here's a link to his interview. Warning: dude' sounds like a second-rate voice actor auditioning for the role of Groot in Guardians of the Galaxy.
