| Even in the regular season he was pretty up and down. He’s a surprisingly soft defender considering his size, relying mostly on his length to try to contest. The benefit is that he’s rarely called for fouls, the big detriment is that he gives up some really easy drives on him and players seem to get really comfortable shooting against him even with his length because he doesn’t really make the feel uncomfortable. The first half of the season I thought he had played himself to at least a tax MLE deal, but after seeing him for a whole season, a min or a little above is where I see his value. |

I wouldn't mind bringing him back on a minimum deal again (maybe the 120% raise).

Same…I like TBjr for vet min. Him with Gabe vet min, Mo vet min, plus MaxC and ShaqH would be a decent way to fill out the deep bench roster as long as there are 8 or 9 other players relied on to consistently compete in games.

| Time to brush the cobwebs off this guy. A 6'7 proper wing? Get him in. |

Need to start using him again. He's got the size and length to defend Murray and MPJ
Spot minutes to give Bron or AR a breather. |

| I don't know what Brown did to Ham, but I think he can be useful this series. If Russell or Schroder or Walker are struggling, bring in brown to add some size and potential 2-way impact. |

This is exactly what I was thinking. Why is Mr. Ham so against TBrown? He was a solid player during the season, and we need his length and 3 shot ability to offset the Nuggets 3/D players. Mr. Ham needs to do a better job of matchup analysis, there's absolutely no reason why Brown should've been held out of this last game. |

I too think TB can be useful this series, I think Ham just takes his time making adjustments and will eventually bring on TB |

Troy? Troy Brown, is that you? 
Couple of things from the GSW series. TB was bad chasing the GS shooters. And he's a spot up shooter on offense which means they can let Curry rest on him.
With Lonnie, it gave the Lakers about 3 guys on the floor who could cook Curry. Plus TB wasn't hitting his 3s and Lonnie was.
I think TB can get run, but he needs to hit his 3s.

Totally agree... between him and Vando on Murray be on him like "white on rice" and DO NOT go under the screener at any cost. THis isn't a Schroeder series, he is too small and likes to go under screens + he ain't providing much offense either |

Congrats on the raise Troy. He wasn't a factor in the playoffs but he definitely helped get us through the regular season. Easily underappreciated IMO. Glad that he was able to set himself up better moving forward.

How much $$$ did he get? Usually when terms aren't disclosed, it's the minimum.

Supposedly 2yr/$8 million. Second year is P.O.
| Quote: | | In a way, you could say that L.A. and Minnesota essentially swapped Prince for Brown straight up. Up front, that hypothetical trade appears as one that the Wolves lose in. However, Prince was able to get $4.5 million from the Lakers next season, while Brown only slotted in at $4 million annually, according to Jon Krawczynski. |

Shake Milton's agreement with the Wolves is a 2-year deal with a team option for the 2nd year.
So this is what I have:
Milton: 2/10M
NAW: 2/9M
Brown: 2/8M

I actually liked him. He rejuvenated his career on the Lakers to generate enough interest from other teams. Now that his 3 ball is going on, his best comp is DFS. Only 23 and still a good amount of upside.
