Aaron Brooks to Phoenix

Post by JustisM »

He got traded today for Goran Dragic and a lottery protected first-round pick.
I really hope he turns his career back in the desert.

A better situation than Houston IMO. He's been playing awful since coming back from his injury. He needs a place where he can become a starter in a year or two. Suns are a perfect fit. Not to mention I think their style of play is ideal for him.

AB did well in Houston but just seemed so restrained in the slow, plodding half-court style that Adelman favors.

Adelman runs an up-tempo offense. It's the same exact offense Brooks' excelled in last year. I think this one is on Brooks and no one else; he didn't handle getting his minutes cut very well, and his game suffered because of his mental approach. Hopefully he can start fresh in Phoenix.

I haven't paid enough attention to them and the NBA this year to know what offenses are teams running (sort of a casual fan now of the NBA).
