Problem is that he never looks that way against NBA level talent.

Can Brogden pull up injured?
Matthews waived and to Gleague for a later call up?
There is a world were knicks can make a big play with Mitch and Deuce but we not reading who comes back.
Don't get me wrong, I love these guys but if Im going for a chip Mitch is not a good bet given his history. His value might never be higher and I don't know if I want to lock him up long term with and extension. Mitch for a team apiring to craw out of the gutter into some relevance like NOLA makes sense and he gets to go home.
For Deuce its time for him to fly and he could land a starting roll somewhere. Im not thinking I want picks back as the time to win is now so unless its a Kessler type move I don't see it. Im not offering anything here as a concept other than it would not suprise me if Leon does something. Giannis of course included. That **** is out there.

Its a thin line between Garrison Matthews, Sam Merrill and Duncan Robinson. What's the diff here? Vet min, 9mm per annum, 17mm per annum - all are pretty damn good shooters, maybe Matthews less efficient historically. Matthews is one of the best in the league at drawing fouls - whether its on 3s, 2 pointers, taking charges....feels like he shouldn't be on the NBA scrap heap right now.

One player that particularly was *unimpressive* was Brogdon. Of his 7 shots, only one was a quality make at the rim. The others looked crap or forced. Three misses at the hoop. One make was off a broken play that he practically had a turnover, but got it back.
https://www.nba.com/stats/events?CFID=&CFPARAMS=&ContextMeasure=FGA&EndPeriod=0&EndRange=28800&GameID=0012500054&PlayerID=1627763&RangeType=0&Season=2025-26&SeasonType=Pre%20Season&StartPeriod=0&StartRange=0&TeamID=1610612752&flag=3&sct=plot&section=game
In fact, all the guards were pretty crap. Shamet definitely the best of the bench guards other than Deuce (whose shot also looks way off). Very curious who makes the cut and who doesn't.

Some of the end of bench bigger guys looked respectible.
Jemison had a nice old school sky hook and conversion in the paint + 1 Alley-oop. Not bad
Evbouman (he is 7 for 8 in preseason, including 3 for 4 from 3pt) and Diawara combined 5 for 5 with inside out scoring, looked good.
Dadiet still hasn't impressed. G league for him if he sticks.

There's not much to take from this game, regarding the players. We can dissect Browns offense and defensive system. But I doubt Brogdon did anything to help or hurt him. His resume is long. Now Tyler Kolek may have made the Brogdon decision more difficult. But I believe the crappy play is due to players forced into certain roles with no clear plays to run. Just seeing who has a natural feel for the game, and who doesn't.

What did you make of the forwards? Jemison, Evbouman and Diawara?
