Owner Real Deal Posted February 10, 2010 Owner Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 Depends on the team, definitely. But if we're wanting to find out who the better overall player is, I'd take Brown, as he's got a more complete game (mainly pointing at his defense here).

Poe Posted February 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 (edited) Depends on the team, definitely. But if we're wanting to find out who the better overall player is, I'd take Brown, as he's got a more complete game (mainly pointing at his defense here).I don't think either has a more complete game than the other. I think JJ has gotten better defensively due to his improved strength and growing awareness, though Brown is still easily the better defender, but I wouldn't say by a long shot. With that said, both players will bring you different things. JJ Redick has an outside-in offense where his shooting opens up his drives, while Brown is inside-out where his athletic finishes will give him more space to shoot. Personally, I'd say JJ is the better offensive player due to his playmaking ability to go with his shooting touch, and Brown is the better defensive player due to his athleticism, though neither is better or worse by a large margin in either overall category.

BlueDevil Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 JJ is a god! just dont expect much defense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Check my Stats Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Definitely would rather have a deadeye shooter playing 15 minutes than an athletic swing man who is good for flashy dunks and streaky play otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poe Posted February 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 (edited) Definitely would rather have a deadeye shooter playing 15 minutes than an athletic swing man who is good for flashy dunks and streaky play otherwise.They both average nearly the same points at about 15 ppg in 36 minutes at about the same overall shooting percentage at 45%. They are just threats from different areas of the court, yet both are affective and will give similar production. Obviously neither are setbacks because they've respectively earned good playing time for contending teams.

ChosenOne Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 JJ is a god! just dont expect much defense He has got alot better on defense I am sure every magic fan could agree. I would take Brown though, because with JJ you know what you are getting a shooter but with Brown right now he still has alot of time to improve so I am looking ahead and taking Brown.

bigdog17k Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 ^ Yeah, JJ has really stepped up his defense from previous years. He's actually pretty good overall on the floor now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemon Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Gotta go with Redick on this one. Brown is great, but he has a weird game. It'd be great if he was more of a slasher, but he likes the jump shot too much imo. If Brown was really aggressive then it's Brown hands down, but sometimes I wonder why he's afraid to attack the basket. Redick has the better shot, range, and handle which is great for that height. I can say though that Brown is really good at sneaking under the basket where a great passer, Gasol, can easily find him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newman Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 It is harder to get good shooters that play at least an average D than to get an athletic swingman. Gotta go with JJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Regime Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 JJ Reddick has really progressed as a player, he doesnt settle anymore like he did the first couple seasons but what impresses me the most about him game now is his defense, he has really commited himself this season. With that said, I'd still take Shannon Brown, it's a little homer but I like him more defensively and when his jumpshot is dropping he's pretty deadly.
