And coach, he panicked a little bit: 'I need to make a change.' So I just sit on the bench and wait and see what happens." Brown, an admitted adherent to metrics, must realize by now that this Lakers monster has characteristics that can't be quantified.

Anytime, especially if it’s against your guys, guys you went to battle with ... Anytime you lose a close game, it hurts.
I’m a tad salty at the computer for aligning me with the aged in Rounds 5 and 6. Jason Kidd and Tim Duncan slid into those slots. I would have preferred a younger option in a power position (DeAndre Jordan, Tyson Chandler or Lamar Odom – once he gets past the initial pouting). The reconfigured NBA sched...
Being back here was surreal, entering the building
Everybody had to grit it out, do more than one thing ... It was a big-time fight, two styles that contradict each other. Nobody gave up an easy basket. I couldn't stomach Paul Piece being able to walk [triumphantly] around Staples Center. I couldn't see that. I couldn't see [Kevin] Garnett huffing and p...
You should never assume or expect ... That will be cocky. I'm not cocky.
Actually, it gave me energy ... I'm still trying to get my rhythm back. I'm still getting in shape, and once I get there, then I'll be able to help this team. In order for me to succeed, you have to move on, no matter what, and I plan on succeeding in this next chapter of my life.

Of course I'll say hello to my guys (at the game)
You just have to move forward
It's been a process ... Time waits for no man. You have to put thngs behind you so you can move on and get better on and off the court.
I've had mixed emotions. Up and down
It's a little weird, but I'm just kind of focused at the task at hand which is to go out and play a game and win
It feels like a minute ago, but you just got to move forward man, move on
Hopefully I can get a quick feel for the game, get myself involved defensively and just compete at a high level
Basketball-wise, it's been humbling because I was so unprepared for a trade
He slides into a pedestrian right on the street and kills him right there.
This guy was riding a motorcycle, he started to skid, he hits us
I went to see my cousin and tell his mother that they had to let him go, that they had to pull the plug on him
I miss my home, my friends, loved ones, my family, father-in-law, mother-in-law, my sisters, my brother, my best friend for all my life, I miss them ... I'm anxious to go home and see my family, see my friends at the game, and my brothers that I used to play with. But you have to treat it like every oth...
