^^^^

Would love to see Nance go down there and wreck shop for a spell. I'm guessing he'd get something along the lines of 16pts, 15 boards, 2 blocks... and two posterizatons.

Not at all.

A large part of it is MENTAL.

He needs to have a heart-to-heart discussion with METTA WORLD PEACE.

This is why he's is the d league. The potential is huge, but he is still learning the game. He needs a year or two of development before he will be ready for the NBA.

In his defense a bit though, d league is a shoot first guard league. There's not a lot of inside out offense, and the defensive focus in general is pretty suspect for most teams.

Brown would definitely be the DPOY in that league. He is locking some guys down and his teammates are letting everyone else score at will.

AB3 is growing and developing his game. He is gaining tremendous confidence in the D-League which is a plus.

Brown has a skill-set that the Lakers are sorely missing. This kid can help the team and will eventually be given a chance.

Yeah, Upshaw is far, far, far away from being an NBA player.

He is definitely a project player at this point. Hopefully, in time, he pans out.

Anthony Brown Developing Nicely In The D-League

Quote:
When the Los Angeles Lakers drafted Anthony Brown out of Stanford, it was destined for him to become the team’s prototypical small forward amongst a dynamic group in today’s NBA. Brown’s role is simple, and that is to show a consistent three-point shot and bring defense on the perimeter.

While the part he must play sounds simple and readily available, the team understands that Brown will need just a little more time to get his feet wet on the professional level.

Nobody thought he was ready to go, just that it feels more secure to let him develop down there on a Lakers contract in case he gets it sooner rather than later

Yeah, we are taking a risky gamble in that respect.
