<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The first three days of March were a perfect microcosm of an imperfect season for Cavaliers? sophomore guard, Shannon Brown. After playing a combined total of four minutes in January and February, Brown was inserted into the Cavaliers? March 1 showdown with the powerhouse Mavericks in Dallas. The uber-athletic combo guard from Michigan State responded in his brief seven-minute stretch ? scoring five points in seven minutes, including a clutch three-pointer. The very next night, Brown remained in the Southwest, playing a game for the Cavaliers? NBDL team in Albuquerque. One night later, the 25th overall pick in the 2006 Draft was back with the Cavaliers for a home game against the Raptors at The Q. In the third night of his back-to-back-to-back, he responded with the best game of his short NBA career ? going off for 14 points in 13 minutes, including a perfect 3-for-3 shooting display from beyond the arc. Brown put together three more nice games in the middle of March, but didn?t score again in 2007. And while his Draft classmate, Daniel Gibson, became a cult hero during the Cavaliers? memorable Playoff run, Brown watched from the sidelines in a suit. But the Cavaliers are still high on their former top pick and he showed more than a few glimpses why in the Vegas Summer League which wrapped up over the weekend. In five games, Brown averaged 17.2 points per contest ? including a 26-point effort against the Chinese squad in a narrow defeat. Despite shooting just 39 percent from the floor, Brown netted double figures in every outing and added 2.4 board and 3.2 assists as the Cavaliers squad went 2-3. Before he left Sin City, cavs.com took a moment to chat with the soft-spoken former Spartan as he prepares for his second season with the Wine and Gold ? </div> Source: NBA.com
I've become more of a Shannon Brown fan as time passes on and I often forget that he must of been so annoyed that he couldn't help his team when they were in the post season
