NOLA.com: Brown to reach goal of playing in all 82 games
Scott lauds forward's efforts
Full Article
Quote:
In 51 games, he was forced to play center after starter Jamaal Magloire fractured his right ring finger. Brown, who is 6-foot-11, 239 pounds, was outsized when he faced centers such as Miami's 7-1 Shaquille O'Neal and Houston's 7-6 Yao Ming. But that didn't keep him from battling in the post.
He kept offering pointers to second-year forward David West, trying to help him feel more comfortable so he could make a bigger contribution. Brown also helped young post players Maciej Lampe and Jackson Vroman after they came in from a January trade with the Phoenix Suns.

Hornets First Round Pick Chris Paul on playing with J.R. Smith:
"It's going to be too exciting to play alongside J.R. He loves to play above the rim and I love to put it above the rim for him to catch it. I'm just excited because he's a young, up-and-coming player just like myself." |
