Bruce Brown’s clutch Game 4 was in the same city where Jim Larrañaga and Miami helped Brown build an NBA career as a guard.
MIAMI — If time is running out on the Nuggets’ symbiotic relationship with Bruce Brown, at least they’ll always have a special place reserved in his pregame routine.
“All he told me to do was go watch some highlights,” Bruce told The Post, smiling in a Miami Hurricanes ballcap. “He told me to watch my highlights.” His success as a backup point guard has also likely earned him a lucrative payday, making the proceedings bittersweet as a player option looms this offseason. Due to salary cap restrictions, it’s possible Game 5 on Monday will be Brown’s last game as a Nugget, with the veteran likely to seek the payday he didn’t receive when he hit free agency last offseason.
The specific tool deployed on the Swiss army knife has varied from team to team. But how Denver saw Brown is the same way Larrañaga did. From the time Miami recruited him and through two seasons for the Hurricanes, Brown remembers, “he would just always say that I was going to be a point guard if I wanted to play in the league.”
“I don’t know if Bruce will get to the second round,” he remembers saying, “but if he does, you guys have a couple of second-round picks. This guy is going to be really, really good, and his best position in the NBA is likely to be the point guard position.”
