Official Jabari Brown Thread: He's Gone! Waived 10/26/15

I'd like to see him get the Clarkson treatment next year, and when a former superstar goes down with a season ending injury, give him playing time and see what the young man can do. Shooting 50%? He is staying within himself, but makes me wonder what he can do with practice, exposure, experience, and confidence. Clarkson doesn't even look like the same guy right now.

 

@Battle Tested20 definitely. With him on the summer league team he'd get more opportunities with his former college teammate Clarkson. The developing of their chemistry together I think will be his best shot of staying here long term.

I'm more excited about our summer league team than I am this God awful team we have now.
Randle, Clarkson, Black, Brown (assuming), and potentiality 3 rookies. That's going to be fun.

 

am I the only for whom that phrase haunts their dreams?

 

I don't even want to go there with our last 3 years but I just hope everyone makes it through these games, camp and pre season with no inures worse than 1 week off.

 

Jabari Brown signed a multi year deal just now. Good move. He could be a nice cheap replacement in case we don't bring back Ellington or need a 3rd PG/SG.

 

I think we have something here. I hope he can move from ten day contracts to ten points a game.

Congratulations for showing what heart, courage and a historically bad Lakers team vs Philadelphia can do if you are in the right place at the right time.

Keep building dat bench Mitch. Hope he can keep playing hungry, we have a deep and interesting history with Brown's in this Franchise (Kwame, Shannon, Mike to name just the most recent.)

 

I have a feeling that the bench is already built and the rebuild will end with this years draft. Then its build and reload. We are already building - i think post ASB we have a pretty good +- for a team losing so many games. At least we are not getting blown out on regular basis.

 

Good move. We picked Tarik off of waivers and Brown from the developmental league; two guys that are cheap and will be in our rotation next year.

 

This is a real feel good story. Him and Clarkson running mates in college and Jordan gets the first break with playing time and steps his game up like no other rookie in the league this year starting late, and now Jabari gets some playing time and in the same way just keeps getting more relaxed and fluid (some slick damn moves in this clip) and is blowing up in a similar way. I have wondered of late if he may not be a more "consistent" shooter than Duke. Duke maybe a little more athletic, but Jabari holds his own and if he can keep working on whatever they tell him his weaknesses are, hell yeah! Good to see. Gotta be like a dream come true to those 2 guys.
