James Anderson is RotoWire's Lead Prospect Analyst:
"For those who don’t live on the west coast and like to go to bed at a reasonable time, Jaylen Brown may not be a household name. He will be soon, however. Six weeks ago I wrote about Jaylen Brown and while I liked his athleticism, I wasn’t sold on his offensive game ever getting to the point where he was an asset on that end of the court. He essentially looked like Tyreke Evans, who is a solid player when he’s healthy, but is not the kind of player a winning NBA franchise would covet."

or

"Marcus Smart, Gordon Hayward and Tyreke Evans were the only players drafted in the top 10 recently with comparable three-point percentages. Smart and Evans were far superior at creating with the ball in their hands."

You can call him Jason Richardson 2.0 if you like... I don't want him either...

Jaylen is a drive and create for himself player without a shot... and limited defense.
He's an athlete, but not a basketball player...yet. This is his final four:



Tyreke had a better handle, and contributed more in assists and steals as you would expect a combo guard to do..... but the minutes Jaylen has gotten at SF should have definitely upped his rebound total... it didn't.

Jaylen @ Cal: Career: 34 G, 14.6 PPG, 5.4 RPG, 2.0 APG
Tyreke @ Memphis: Career: 37 G, 17.1 PPG, 5.4 RPG, 3.9 APG

If he is the only one there, you take Poeltl or trade the pick.

This is all tilting at windmills. I found Demps's Summer To Do List:

Step 1- trade 2016 1st, and 2017 top 3 protected pick to Phoenix for Brandon Knight.

Step 2- sign Brandon Jennings this summer

Step 3- bring back Anderson and Perkins

Step 4- sign Roy Hibbert. Every NBA team in 2016 needs 4 slow centers

Step 5- ???? (catastrophic injuries)

Step 6- rehearse "we just dont know about this core yet." I keep my job another year.

I can see the similarities with my own eyes..
I was just giving you a quote so you can see that other people have mentioned it...
And some shockingly similar stats...

You bring up another fun topic, because Buddy's single season is actually better than any of Steph's at Davidson, and he did it with a strength of schedule rating of +11.14. Steph's was -3.13. It's truly amazing.

BUT, Buddy is also 2 years older than Steph was, and his proficiency has come as if from nowhere... Charting upwards far faster and better than anyone ever expected... Good for him!

Steph had that same level of production all 3 years at Davidson. It's truly nuts to think that he was performing that well at 18 years old, and putting those numbers up mostly from the Point guard position. More than DOUBLING Buddy's assist totals.

I hope Buddy can continue to grow his game. He is probably more JJ Reddick than Steph Curry... but again, I watch them AND look at stats.

it's Jamal Murray by a city mile...
Jaylen Brown needs to go back to school, and learn to shoot.
He plays like Tyreke, and that is not the kind of starter that we need.

Ingram/Simmons/Hield/Dunn/Bender/Murray in that order...

If we are picking 7, and those 6 are gone... we take Jakob Poeltl over Jaylen Brown.
We might even take Poeltl over Murray at 6...

21 years old

Regular season: 14.5/4.9/1.6 on 46.5%/39.5%/64.4%
Post season: 17.4/5.1/1.3 on 49.4%/42.9%/55.6%

Be hard pressed to find a dumber post in the history of this website.

I'd still take Murray. He would be shining in Boston too.

Trolling PCT? You’d take Murray over a guy who’s proven it in the playoffs at the toughest position to find in basketball?
