Danny is a genius.
And we have an extra first round pick next year or the year after out of the Philly trade.
This is going to be fun.

I like brown.  I really do.  But he has a ways to go to become a good player.  Right now he's all flash and potential.

I did.
But not at the expense of another top five pick.
I trust Danny.

He has to iron out a few things...but he is better than Crowder

especially with his new improvements

Crowder still can't dribble with his left.  Outside of a few straightline dunks at the basket, can't finish around the Basket

Brown can do so many more things than Crowder

I didn't whine about either. I'm also not saying "I told you so" after one SL game.

Brown is most definitely NOT better than crowder right now.  Too many things to iron out.

I certainly remember when everyone was whining about trading away the number one pick and the chance at greatness for guaranteed mediocrity.

So far, so good, Jayson.  I know it's only summer league, but that was a pretty good opening statement by our guy.

Did Crowder play better than Brown vs the Cavs a few months ago?

Brown will beat out Crowder this season imo

Eratic and weak.

I wanted Fultz, but Tatum was my second choice. I was more afraid of trading it for Butler or drafting Jackson.

I've been high on Brown since the beginning, but he's got a long way to go before being a good starter. Tatum has great potential, but is a complete unknown against NBA competition.

I'm still not sold on Brown. It's good that he can dominate in transition vs SL defense, but his instincts in the half court aren't nearly where they should be.

On the other hand, all early signs point to Tatum being a baller. PP comps tough to avoid.
