Brook Lopez has some concerns about time travel

The Brooklyn Nets are on the verge of a first round sweep at the hands of the Atlanta Hawks and center Brooke Lopez has got a lot on his mind, both on the court and off.

The Brooklyn Nets are in the midst of a playoff battle with the Atlanta Hawks and center Brooke Lopez has got a lot on his mind, both on the court and off.

In a recent interview with TNT's David Aldridge Lopez talked about the team's chemistry, and also how time travel makes him nervous.

The unconventional topic came up when Lopez was asked which comic book super power he would have.

Flight is always the easy one to go to. I think time travel. But that also, I'd be a bit too nervous to actually use it, because I wouldn't want to change anything too much. So I don't know ...  I've thought about it before, and paradoxes scare me. My trainer and I were actually talking about this about a month ago. It's possible that in the future, this thing's already been built, but they're too scared to come back. I don't know ... wouldn't they have come back already otherwise?

Lopez sounds like he may have some very big plans for an offseason project this summer.
