    I think that's asking way too much.

    I slightly better version of former NBA guard Bobby Brown is probably also asking too much.

    A poor man's cross between Rodrigue Beaubois and Toney Douglas is probably the real Patrick Beverley.

    Unfortunately, the 2-10 shooting is very Machado-like.

    He's quick, very quick and athletic. He also looked pretty good handling and passing the ball. Can he shoot and finish at the basket, I don't know? He also looked pretty good on defense. But he is definitely quick and athletic.

    I hate to say this, because Beverely plays defense and plays team ball, and Brown plays zero defense and hogs the ball at an incredible rate - but Brown is way, way, way better of a shooter and scorer than Beverley is.

    Brown is a much more talented player, even though he never tries on defense. Beverely get by on athletic ability and effort, not on skill.

    I hope he gets a shot, but it will probably take a Lin or Douglas injury.

    How about split TD's minutes with Beverley? So Beverley can start evolving with our team?

    I REALLY feel like he is going to be the reason why our team will do great the rest of the year coming off the bench behind Lin. It's funny how I say that because I haven't even seen him play a single minute for us yet.

    I like how he immediately started a conversation with Crawford, the 13 year vet, during the free throw and then stepped up to him while on defense. Not bad.

    Would love to hear what he said. He did a great job of shutting him down, though it was mostly Crawford getting out of control.
