New PG option?

by L Magico on Dec 11, 2008 6:52 PM EST

So now that Javaris Crittenton has been traded a second time and is now on his 3rd team in 3 years, what options do the Magic have as far as acquiring another PG?

We've heard the names of Stoudamire, Smuch Parker, etc. What about Dee Brown?

Its a kinda sappy article but a good look at a guy that just wants to play. Give me Dee Brown on my team any day over Stephon Marbury. I think it would be a good situation because:

a) he can learn to be a pro with a guy that has a simarly game in Jameer and he can learn from a 11 year vet with AJ.

b) he doesn't need to play all that often. As a 3rd string PG, we could do worse.

c) He's cheap.

Thoughts?

Much rather Dee Brown than Parker or Chucky Atkins (who has been another name mentioned).
As you said, we have vets (Johnson and even Battie to keep the young guys heads where they should be) so a young body might be a good choice.

Looks like he was good enough for Phoenix...

from the AP:

The Phoenix Suns signed Dee Brown on Wednesday, ending their search for another backup point guard.

Yeah, everyone's good enough for Phoenix

Goran Dragic is awful.

The Suns also worked out Darrell Armstrong and Troy Hudson. Woulda been an interesting ex-Magic contingent in the desert if they had signed either of them.
