His first season with the Lakers, lockout. Limited and compressed training camp even if they are the Lakers. Still finished on top-half of the league in defensive rating.
Second season, yeah 5 games are good sample size to assess the team's defensive rating especially with their DPoY center still hurting back then and the players are still running around like headless chickens trying to get the Princeton offense right making them lose focus on defense, an offense which was implemented by an assistant offensive coach that was hired by management even though Brown already had MIKE KRuester as his offense coach.
