Robin Lopez unimpressed by brother Brook's pursuit of Nets scoring record

Brook Lopez came into Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls just 34 points shy of Buck Williams for the Nets' all-time scoring mark.

Standing in the way is his brother, Bulls center Robin Lopez, who isn't too impressed with what Brook has done in his nine years with the franchise.

"It took him long enough," Robin said before the game, according to Steve Lichtenstein of CBS New York.

Bulls point guard Rajon Rondo also implored Robin to keep his brother out of the record books.

"Shut his ass down," Rondo said. "He ain't getting it tonight."

The blood feud between the Lopez twins runs deep, with Brook most recently saying he'd be pulling for Serge Ibaka in the event of a grudge match between Ibaka and Robin.

Robin ended up outscoring Brook 16-13, but the Nets came away with a 107-106 win.
