Brown Jasikevíciuszról:

 

Coach, is it fair to say that the best point guard in the world right now does not play in the NBA, and will never play in the NBA, and his name is Sarunas Jasikevicius?
Brown: "No, he's not. He's a great player, I'm not saying anything to take that away. But there are a lot of great players. I think he's a great international player. There's a lot of things he can do internationally that he'd never get done in our league ... with the way they set screens, and the fact that you can hide a guy in the zone. But in international ball, he's as good as they get. He finds open people and makes big shots. I'm a fan of international ball, but there are a lot of guys who do well with their teams in this kind of environment that would struggle in our league. And this might not be a bad thing for them. So much of our game is isolation -- one-on-one and two-on-two, so unless you have great quickness and athletic ability, it's a struggle for you. But that takes nothing away from the ability [Jasikevicius] has shown in the last 3-4 years. He was great in 2000. The fact that he wouldn't be the best point guard in the NBA is not a negative."
