I only saw Tierre Brown play about 3 times last season so I can't remember his game. If LA doesn't sign Derek Anderson or Nick VanExcel or anyone else who can handle the starting PG position, do you think Tierre Brown could play the starting PG in LA? Im not certain if he's still a free agent or if he has re-signed with LA either.
From what I watched from Brown last year, he isn't good on defense, turns the ball over, and doesn't have a good shot. Basically, anything you DON'T want in a PG.

Well to be fair to him, he wasn't given a start or a full game. We only saw bits of him. Its not easy to come off the bench and start playing. Especially when your quite young like Tierre. I'm not really going to start hating on him until I see him start and play about 30mins a game for about 5 games.
plz no... he could start on my high school team but not on any other NBA team. he turns the ball over hella lot and he his shot flat out sucks. he do not even really pass the ball and put up some wild shot.
I don't think he would have made it to the NBA if he was just high school level. I'm willing to give him a chance. If we can find a proven player, then Tierre will have to come off the bench. I've seen him drive through the lane and get the layup a few times in the few minutes he plays. He's worth giving a chance to. I know what 99% of the fans think of him but fact is, he hasn't really been given a chance and has played for four different teams in his first four season. Thats a new team every season. It can't be healthy for a young player. Are we also forgetting that this season he came of the bench and scored 27 points against Atlanta? Like Kwame, he has shown a few flashes that he can play. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">COLLEGE: Finished his four-year career at McNeese State this summer with averages of 15.4 points and 4.1 rebounds in 110 games ... led the Southland Conference in scoring as a junior and ranked second as a senior ... ranked in the nation's top 25 in scoring average in each of his final two seasons ... received All-Southland Conference honors as both a junior and a senior, scoring over 20 points per game each year ... as a junior, averaged a career-high 22.0 points per game. </div>
I'm almost positive Tierre Brown will not be back. The only time he played well was against Atlanta. He is everything PJax hates in a guard, mainly because Tierrable Brown is not a disciplined player. He takes bad shots, does not play an ounce of defense, doesn't protect the basketball, and always gets caught in mid air before he tries making a difficult pass. I don't see him as the type of player who's going to change overnight either. There are a lot more options who are further along and a lot more polished than Turnover Brown. He'd be great on the AND1 mixtour, or trying to win another MVP in the NBDL, but for a structured team he's a terrible option.
I'm all for giving chances because I still believe he can prove something. If he doesn't work out though, the W-L record is under risk of suffering.

He doesn't create, he can't shoot, he can't defend, and I would bet that he had the worst FG% inside 10 feet, cuz kid can't finish if his life depended on it. He missed so many layups it was embarrasing. there are plenty of players who can contribue in limited minutes. When tierre was on the floor, it was apparent that he didn't belong ..
no, tierre cant shoot well, and he cant defend. i wouldnt want him back next season. and to think that you were asking if he should start? if he starts, we are screwed.
hhahahahaahahaha- I didn't kno much about this kid either. but from everyones comments I've gotten a pretty good idea that I'd rather have my little sister starting for the Lakers over TB.
