I read this earlier today. Great article.

Brown is super-competitive. He wants to win, but he also has the maturity not to make it his life. I think if you want to have success at anything, you have to be able to focus without being obsessed.

Casey comparing him to Pippen got me thinking more about Brown's upside.

I really like Brown. Great pick by Danny. Great development by CBS. Great work and confidence by Brown. Homerun so far.

Awesome article.  Kudos to Jaylen for battling through the tough stretches from last season.  I didn't realize that nobody took on a mentor role until Gerald Green.  Jaylen basically played his entire rookie season under heavy pressure from teammates AND Brad's expectations.  It's easy to see how another rookie might have struggled to stay afloat, especially without a true mentor.

Tatum was very fortunate to have Jaylen as a teammate for his rookie campaign.

This was a very good article.  It's nice to see our young guys get this much attention.  It's well deserved. These kids work so [dang] hard it's nice to see them get the accolades.  I do not want the C's to make any more trades for any other players if they have to give up Jaylen or Jason.  These kids will be fun to watch for the next 10 years.
