He was good with Nets too, he is the ideal role player and would look good with Bron and AD too.

He's a good player but not good enough where you're throwing an entire mid level at him

Can he defend? - Yea but he's also undersized and limited at 6'3
Can he shoot? = Well he shoots 40% from 3 but takes 1.3 a game...hardly a sign of an elite shooter
Can he score? = He shoots almost 50% from the floor....he's good around the rim but he's not somebody where you throw the ball to and say go get me a bucket

He's a jack of all trades kind of guy and i'd love to see him on the team but not at this price because he doesn't really address the paramount needs on this team

- A big to supplement AD - can step in and produce with or without him
- Shooters - This team is still in desperate need of shooters - It's actually stiffled Bron's game because of it
- A Secondary Ballhandler/Shot Creator - Someone who can take pressure off Bron with Ballhandling duties and can also carry the offense at any given moment

Are we getting any of that with Bruce Brown:patrice:

If they had Bruce Brown in May, they probably would have beat the Nuggets simply because he could have defended Murray reasonably well and wouldn't have allowed 35 a game. This team needs perimeter defenders and he fills that need in addition to the little things he does well. He's unselfish too which no team can get enough of.

For those not wanting Bruce Brown, there is an option (slightly unlikely since Rockets/Bucks probably are good bets) to get Brook Lopez. A legit stretch 5 who plays defense and can knock down 3's

IF we could make a decision on either... who do y'all want?

The Lakers are not getting either one of those guys. This is a tax saving move.

It's Lopez and not its even remotely close. We get a big who can stretch the floor and defend the paint. The only downside would be his age.
