Love Brown, but find it absurd to compare him to Jordan. Even though Jordan had rawness in his game coming out of college, he was already much more assertive in his style of play and confident.

Jordan was also 2 years older his rookie season.

Why is it any time you try to compare a player to another player, people assume he will never be as good as the player you're comparing him too.

MJ couldn't be compared to Dr. J when he came into the league. People would laugh at you.

I'm comparing Brown and MJ in terms of style of play, body type, strengths\flaws, athletic ability.

Jaylen is exciting, but there should be an absolute ban on ever comparing any player to MJ.


Great words from a great man

  • Peace it's a board. We all will never agree.

I will settle for uninjured Tracy McGrady  ;).
