did you finalize the Brown trade before Boston won the chip Cap?


Yeah, we agreed weeks ago.

My reasoning still stands but as a prisoner of the moment... it killed me to watch him go out and get FMVP :lol:

beleive it or not -that was the first time I watched Brown play for an extended time. He's a great two-way player!
He still has to share the ball though with the rest of that Boston squad Cap...

I REALLY like Brown. Just a great #2 irl and, as you said, just a really solid defender. In the SIM, my front like was just chopped liver against San Antonio and they were able to shut him down so I wanted a big for my second big piece while I get my books ready for next offseason (SGA). That second ball is about to drop later today.
