Re: #46 - Bucks acquire Sterling Brown - Done Deal 7/6
Yeah he definitely has the 3pt shot. You can tell it's not because of a million hours of practice, he just has it naturally.
We got a nice little collection of shooters now, from the regular rotation pretty much only Giannis and Moose can't hit it.

Re: #46 - Bucks acquire Sterling Brown - Done Deal 7/6
Dude has such a nice, easy, repeatable shot. When it leaves his hand, it feels like it's going in. Throw in that he's really active on defense (4.5 rebs, 4.0 stocks per in last two) and he has the tools to be a really good role player.
I said it the second Snell signed his contract: I think Brown can give the Bucks everything Snell can (if not a little more) right now. At 1/11th the price.

His brother Shannon had one of of the highest vertical jumps in NBA history. How about Sterling?

The dude kind of reminds me of Middleton

he's ok, he can play above the rim some, catch the occasional lob etc, but nowhere near his brother who was a total freak.
Sterling can do more things though.

You definitely get the Middleton/Brogdon feel from him in terms of 2nd round picks. We'll see how he looks in the NBA

Dude can play D. That alone makes him valuable. I think he plays decent minutes this year.

Re: #46 - Bucks acquire Sterling Brown - Done Deal 7/6
Brown is Malcolm Brogdon revisited: you can see he's a great player, everybody agrees he's a great player, but everybody projects him in the 2nd round for some reason, and then you ask why and the answer is some BS that doesnt make sense.
Awesome, just keep collecting those players

Re: #46 - Bucks acquire Sterling Brown - Done Deal 7/6
As a counter balance to the vitriol I've been spewing about Wilson, just wanted to come here to say that Brown looks fantastic. His shot is a thing of beauty, he's a willing passer with what looks to be decent vision and he goes for every loose ball like his life depended on it.
He's also built like tank. I loved the way that even in summer league, he has tried to put the team on his back. Give me the players all day that give effort no matter what the circumstance or level of play is. It shows maturity and character.

I love this guy and hope he can change his weight room habits to pick up a bit more explosion. Could turn him into a Wes Matthews or better. Think he's playable now.

Re: #46 - Bucks acquire Sterling Brown - Done Deal 7/6
Agreed give him JETs minutes easily, get him working on his legs for more lift and continue refining his handles. He should get plenty of time on the floor this year.

Re: #46 - Bucks acquire Sterling Brown - Done Deal 7/6
Agree, this pick looks great and exactly what 2nd round picks should be used for going forward. A great way to fill out bench/role players cheap so you can invest money in the big time players. With how good he looks it sure would've been tempting to save the Snell money. And with that roster spot and saved money I'd have kept Thornwell too. As much depth on the wings and 3 and D types you can find the better. Have to think if you kept both that at least one would pan out and/or stay healthy.

I'd sign Jet to the vet minimum regardless. He can battle Jet and Rashad for those 10-15 extra wing/guard minutes in training camp.

I hope we send Rashad to the G League for heavy minutes until he's much more consistent

Re: #46 - Bucks acquire Sterling Brown - Done Deal 7/6
The only way I want Jet on our team if he's in a suit and tie holding a clipboard. I don't see the sense in giving him a handful of minutes when we have so many young guards on the team. He was fine last year, but that was enough Jet for me.

barring injury, or regression, trading Snell's deal would be easy a year or two from now

He seems like a much smarter player than his brother, and I think will be a better player.

Re: #46 - Bucks acquire Sterling Brown - Done Deal 7/6
I like him.
Serious question... It's way too early but if we gave snells minutes to brown how many wins do you think it would cost us. I'd say 3... is that worth 11/4 instead of 1/4?
2nd question... vaugh brown take snells minutes... how many less wins?
