The Nuggets GM said “be careful what you wish for” insinuating that Peyton Watson was a better player than Bruce Brown and that teams should be wary of Browns future endeavors. Not a good look for a GM to take shots at former players and fan favorites. So that was weird.

For comparison, Brown averaged 11.5 pts / 4.1 rebs / 3.4 ast / 1.5 TOV on 48% / 36% / 76% shooting splits in 28mpg.

Obviously early returns, but I’m not sure Watson is the guy that Booth thinks he is.

    Preseason is all about experimentation for guys like Watson. The numbers mean little. It’s about the process. His defense was good in preseason which is where his bread will be buttered…it’s Braun who’s in line to assume a little more of the offensive load Bruce left…and Reggie Jackson.
