If one could guarantee me that Troy Brown would be able to improve his shooting then I would be all in on him as the pick. Height is always good to have in the NBA, the knack for defense, passing, and being able to switch is appealing. But, his shooting is bad in college. Is it a touch thing or his lack or prime athleticism? Maybe the Jazz staff can help him like they helped Rubio.

I really don't know what people see in Troy Brown, to me he's too much like Evan Turner ... just seems really heavy footed and timid.
I'd be pretty depressed if we ended up drafting him. Sorry.

He’s more likely to be a lottery pick than to b available when we are on the clock.
He’d be an absolute steal for us.
Reminder: Donovan Mitchell shot 25% from 3 his freshman season.
That's how wild **** can be. Donovan Mitchell may not even get drafted if he declares after his Freshman season. I dont get why people get so hung up on Brown's shooting.
Jesus, I may have to rethink my take on Brown now.

Ofc I really hate the guy OL loves and he hates the guy I really love.
And Evan Turner is actually a really good player. He just never learned how to shoot, and I dont think he ever really tried.

I agree 100% on Troy Brown. Most overrated player projected in the 1st round. I am praying that Brown and Holiday are picked before 21 by some stupid teams and it pushes better prospects down to us. Troy Brown has NO ATHLETICISM. He can't shoot. He cannot play D. He has ideal size for a wing and is a good passer and has a good handle but he is going to be exposed in the NBA.
Say Hell No to T-Bro...
All of THIS.

The three things you mentioned are like the three things most players never or can’t do. Shooting is something that I could become great at if you just locked me in a gym it’s a mentality thing, which is a personality call by the FO. His athleticism isn’t elite, but isn’t so bad that it will hold him back either.
Troy Brown is a 10-15 type prospect. If he fell to us we should be jumping for joy. You don’t usually get a guy like that at 21. Even if he didn’t work out (lots of players don’t) we’d be nuts not to take a guy with his skills if he fell to us.

Anfernee Simons should be the Jazz pick!!!!
Rumor says the Lakers and Portland likes him and he showed very well at his last workout.

Troy Brown will not be the pick because he's redundant with Exum (for the 5th ****ing time already, and ima be right, quote me if im wrong)

What the **** does he have in common with Exum?
Can I quote you on this one too?

Brown will be a great switch defender.
How much did it help our offense that Joe could take the ball up court and run a PnR? Brown can do that stuff too.
He also shows potential to be able to punish a switching defense in the future with his handle. I don’t give a **** if he’s not a future dunk contest participant.
It’s useless to try to sell you all on him because he’ll be picked 5-10 spots before us. But y’all dumb as hell if you think prospects like that grow on trees at 21.

I dunno man, he needs to show me that FIRE. What sets Gobert and DMitch apart from others are the FIRE IN THEIR EYES.
Not sure I've seen that FIRE in Simons' eyes yet.
