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.
That GM won the title and swept the Lakers EASILY in the WCF there’s no such thing as a “close sweep”
Nuggets win the title last year without Bruce Brown, it would have been harder but they still win.
Salty Russ fan detected
does it bother me that Russ and RJ Barrett have the same TS percentage but only Russ gets clowned on, well yeah a little
Also Russ game was never shooting he has very special passing/driving skills, something RJ has never shown many if any glimpses of
Everyone clowns on Barrett.
