rown didn't have an opening statement so much as a sustained one. He moved the curve by inches in the first quarter — a clean look here, a contested stop there — and let the game come to him.
The first quarter is where it took a real dent — diawara 3pt jump shot (3 pts) (kolek 1 ast) (-0.5). From that possession on, the curve never had to be rebuilt the same way twice.
The fourth was control. Brown closed at -1.4 without needing a final flourish to get there.
