Listening to Byron, I actually think it's that dunderhead that's having Lou "go to work".
He thinks he's got a Chris Paul/Kidd out there.
"Well, he puts them up, ergo he has fire. Russell passes, thus he doesn't have fire". |
I agree, I think Lou envisioned playing about 10 minutes per half and putting up 4-5 shots per half. If he had planned on being a backup PG I think he would have asked for more money. | |

He needs a little seasoning. This d-league stint will help him out I think. He'll be allowed to throw up air balls (think he had two last night) and turn over the ball without being yanked right away.
He's not a gunner either -- as I seen him move the ball a few times.. not something you can say much about Vander Blue and Manny Harris at times lol.
He's not ready yet, I don't think. He's much more closer to sooner than later though. No need to bring him up to the main roster.. let him get as many reps down in the D-League as possible.
I actually have high hopes for him. He can put the ball on the floor and do other things than just shoot. He could end up being a very valuable role player (if not more) in the future. |

He's got a beautiful stroke, but what I like about him is his potential defensively. I'm really hoping that he embraces a defensive stopper mentality. I see him effective against the Klay Thompson, and other 2's & 3's. |

Ya he will be going down to the Dleague and getting called up back and forth. We've done it before.
Game before last he was 4-9 from 3. Last night not sure.
Would love to see him get PT over MWP or Lou. Can't wait til we go into full development mode in a month or two |

I love his potential. He plays defense well enough for a rookie. You can't expect an all-world defender right out of the gate.. but his defense isn't bad.
I might sound a little crazy.. but if he continues to progress this year and Kobe does indeed retire.. I wouldn't mind throwing him in at the starting shooting guard position IF the lakers get a solid small forward. His size is excellent.
Russell, Brown, and a small forward with size (Nic Batum comes to mind) could be the start of something nice defensively.
I know everybody is crazy for the Clarkson / Russell combination.. but I see Jordan Clarkson as more of a super 6th-man type like James Harden in OKC or Manu (not in terms of play style.. but in terms of impact off the bench and being like their 6th starter) |

Brown was inactive Vs Warriors, why didn't they just leave him with the D-Fenders for one more game? |

Lakers' Anthony Brown: Assigned to D-Fenders AGAIN
Quote: | Brown was assigned to the Los Angeles D-Fenders, the Lakers' D-League affiliate on Friday.
The Lakers' rookie continues to move between the Lakers and D-Fenders this season. Brown was called up to the Lakers on Sunday, but didn't make any appearances in the Lakers' two games. He has only appeared in three games this season, for a total of nine minutes. He'll continue to develop his game with the D-Fenders, as he is expected to suit up for their game tonight.

If the Lakers played AB instead of Kobe someday they would have a knockdown Three point sniper on the floor....there would be less isos....that would lead to more assists for DLo...better ball movement too.
Also the defense would probably be better. |

AB3 is growing and developing his game. He is gaining tremendous confidence in the D-League which is a plus.
Brown has a skill-set that the Lakers are sorely missing. This kid can help the team and should be given a chance.

Anthony Brown Developing Nicely In The D-League
Quote: | When the Los Angeles Lakers drafted Anthony Brown out of Stanford, it was destined for him to become the team’s prototypical small forward amongst a dynamic group in today’s NBA. Brown’s role is simple, and that is to show a consistent three-point shot and bring defense on the perimeter.
While the part he must play sounds simple and readily available, the team understands that Brown will need just a little more time to get his feet wet on the professional level. |

So why haven't the Lakers recalled him yet? Yes, he's gaining "experience" in the d-league, but he looks like a man among boys out there. He's capable of doing this against stronger competition. |

He's doing well but he is not the best player on the D-Fenders team. They have a few studs that are older than AB3.
The Lakers definitely could use his skill-set though. |
