I don't know that the Suns could afford him but I think he is the type of plyer that could be very good in the Suns system. With a reduced poll and the pressure of the number one pick off of him a little it could be an excellent addition. I wonder what the interest around the league would be and what his value would be after how his season ended with the Wizards.

If only if he would sign cheap and get his head on straight. :)

Of course this is all premature before the CBA is worked out but it could be a possibility I would be excited about for next season.

He is just too much of a head case/project for the Suns right now IMO. We need a veteran guy who can play, not someone who may not show up to practice and be a locker room cancer. JC normally tries to bring in class guys, so Kwame Brown is out.

i don't think kwame would be a headcase. i think he was too young, under too much pressure and jordan was just too hard on him. w/ a player's coach like coach d and some other young guys on the team, and it being uptempo, he might actually thrive here. i'd see what it took to bring him in.

personally i dont think he will ever be a player worth having on a team. MJ couldnt get anything out of his. eddie jordan couldnt get anything out of him (he is said to be a player's coach) and he quit on his team in the playoffs. lets face it this guy cant deal with pressure.

Hunter was considered a head case when he came over here....but Hunter as a headcase cost less than 6 times the amount that Kwame the headcase would cost.

he'd be a decent project for cheap, but with the suns and their money situation, it wouldnt be a great idea, unless we could trade for him + a little insurance (unprotected first/young rookie contract).

Seems like a pretty loney bandwaggon you have there. :D

K Brown is like a draft pick. He hasn't proven much and is still a physical talent; but like the other commentators I prefer someone who plays hard all the time.

I think he'd be worth a flyer, for the right price, which won't happen. Some team like the Hawks, a team that will end up with alot of money after not signing everyone they really want, will end up giving it to him.

I actually think it's the Phoenix Suns who would not want to with Brown. They have a great locker room atmosphere. They are working on a championship team. I don't think they would want to take a chance on a guy who has been an underachiever and quit on his team in the playoffs. I doubt he gets a much more than the mid-level exception, but there probably will be some team willing to give him a deal starting at $5.5-6 million.

This is kind of what I was thinking. Some other team will go and give him too much money.

The kid has talent. I wonder if he will ever put it together.
