Jaylen is a heck of a finisher. Very impressed thus far.

And Portis is clearly a starting big that has shown he can step out and hit the 3.

At least Yabu looks like an Ainge-reach that has a chance to work out, though...

buzz on brown seems to be accurate.  At this point in his career, he can't shoot or finish.  Here's hoping he develops it.  5 years from now he can be really good.

Not sure how say that is accurate already?
Cuz it's what we saw in College and it's what we are seeing now?  He can't shoot and he has trouble finishing.

I think he can shoot just fine, I agree he has had difficulty finishing.
He can shoot... but he can't make his shots.

The Jaylen Brown bust talk will get louder as the season progresses, but I don't think it's fair to judge him right away.  He's 19.  Gonna take him 5-6 years.

You must be joking.  The knock on him is that he can get to the basket, but can't make it once he's there.  Bill SImmons keeps whining about it in his podcast.   Brown just had back-to-back plays where he got to the basket and basically airballed it once there.  He can't shoot or finish right now.  Gonna take him a few years at least.

false.

Clearly being sarcastic -- jabbing at both reaches on Brown and Rozier.

Rozier looks ok, but generally through 3.5 summer-league games I can't say I'm all that impressed with anyone playing these games.  None of them look capable of getting NBA minutes right now.  MAYBE Rozier.  MAYBE.

I am surprised at Brown's handle today. It looks pretty solid in the little bits that he's shown. And he's obviously so light on his feet. It looks like he can blow past his defender on each jab step and fake that he gives.

If he gets that shot down a little better, he's going to be pretty good.

This is the Brown I watched at Cal. The dude is just so raw. Fans won't like having to watch the dude develop.

For real coach NyQuil, you can see why Jimmy Butler criticized him last year for being "soft spoken".

Nice Brown! He looks much more willing to shoot today, and he looks good doing it. With his elite athleticism, he'll be able to create more than enough space to get that shot off in the NBA.
