People here overrate Brown and his strength like backdoor cutting are well-suited to Jokic´s distribution. I don´t see how it fits with our schemes. The biggsest advantage he has over Green is passing. Not using my MLE on Brown to get a four year older, slightly better Josh Green.
Besides I think he´ll just stay in Denver on a two year deal with a player option, then get out and sign a bigger deal.
If he´s the top priority in free agency, you get "old" Mavs2021 back.
They sure are.
The biggest advantage he has over Green is that he stepped up on the biggest stage in the sport. He was taking contested threes in the finals with the clock winding down. Green is timid and plays scared the bigger the moment gets. Having a player with championship experience is invaluable. You don't just win based on the counting stats a guy puts up on Basketball Reference. The Mavs are missing a guy with Brown's attitude. He's got that dawg in him. Plus it's not like they're preparing a $30 million AAV offer for him.
Who was it that said you can't win a title with a bunch of milk drinkers? No thanks on Harrison Barnes.
