Definitevely yes. Some day, maybe next year or in two, Lopez will be able to beat Goiko "The Boss" playing singles. I know that it is hard to believe that anyone can beat him. Goiko played near perfection last friday, I did not recall that he commited any unforced error. I mentally analyzed his game and it seems to me that no computer machine programmer would do it better, amazing. Even so, I also believe that in any year Lopez will defeat Goiko.
Goiko, 29 years old, is at the top of his game. He has learned the job since he made his pro debut at Milano (Italy), 15 years old at the time. He can maintain his game level and he will do it for years, he is God-gifted strong and he is got the skills to be the best frontcourter for a decade. However, he wont be able to play bettert that what he did last friday.
Lopez is younger, just twenty-five years old, backourters need more time to improve. He is got another ten years to reach his peak. If you have followed him last couple of years it´s amazing how much he has improved, diet and training have done a miracle in him ( he is got his own physical trainer). He moves pretty good on the court to be such a big man, his reverse is the best I have seen since Tximela. His left-hand rebote it´s okay, so is his right-hand rebote. He has improved the most with his right-hand, and still he can get better. If he is able to improve his right-hand, Lopez will have the key to beat Goiko in individuals. The way Lopez throws right now it´s too much sideways, waist level, and the ball gets the tendency to come out too much from the txik-txak, instead of dying there, allowing a skillful player like Goiko to return the ball with not problem. Instead, if Lopez gets the posture of throwing right-hand head level, the ball drops dead in the txik-txak, almost impossible to return keepìng in mind the speed that Lopez gets. This is what Gorroño, a former Tampa star, thinks about Lopez´s right-hand. Gorroño knows what he is talking about, he had one of the best right-hands in jai-alai. He was along with Almorza, the principal Bolibar´s opponent playing individuals.
Tips, little details that can help defeat a superstar.
