    i know their are a million topics about him and how much of a disappoinment he has been but this article is really good...i was browsing the RGM boards and i came across it....
    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">When the coaches figured out that Brown truly thought he was playing hard despite evidence to the contrary, they treated it as a teachable moment. They broke down game films, pointed out areas where he could do better, and gave him specific instructions on how to do it. They even directed him to an ideal example.

    ?I have to work on really playing hard even when my scoring is not there, which is tough for me,? Brown said before Wednesday night?s game against Cleveland. ?I need to come out and do what Etan does, and keep driving even if I?m not getting the ball. To just chase down and get the ball for myself by getting rebounds.?

    Against the Cavaliers, Brown made an effort to imitate Thomas. Instead of watching teammates? shots in flight, he went to the glass. When Cleveland put up shots, he found someone to box out. The result was his best game of the season ? 15 points and 10 rebounds in 32 minutes. </div>
    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">?He?s getting better at being active off the ball,? said Coach Jordan. ?I think he?s always been a decent on the ball defender in the post, on the perimeter. He needs to show more improvement in defense off the ball. Seeing the ball, coming to penetration, getting some blocked shots. He?s the only guy on the team that?s taken more than two charges. On offense, he?s got to finish plays in the paint.?</div>

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">In addition to trying to play with Thomas-like effort, Brown says he?s working on his skill set. For example, he?s developing offensive countermoves in the post, and has been studying Thomas and Jeffries to improve his timing in going for blocked shots. </div>

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">?He?s so athletic,? said Cleveland center Chris Mihm. ?He?s very quick off his feet. He was really attacking the offensive glass tonight, getting some easy buckets there. I can tell he?s been working on his offense too. He?s a lot more comfortable with his back to the basket, and he has a couple nice post-up moves</div>

    here is the whole article: http://wizards.realgm.com/showarticle.php?artid=217

    I dont think Wiz Fans should give hope up just yet...i like how he is studying game film...
