    Brooks was really good, considering where we picked him.

    Interesting. I have to think this is a BPA pick, because from a need standpoint the Rockets would've better served with a swingman, especially if they have to cut James Anderson to fit Howard under the cap.

    Non-undersized PGs that can play don't last until the 2nd round.

    I'm getting brooks vibes. Small guy with a great shoot that can sc9re off the dribble.

    If he isn't very good he can be Canaan fodder.

    he's not tall. but he's a bear of a point guard, strong. i think this will be a very good pick, he won't be physically overmatched.

    i was hoping the Pacers would pick him up for the bench.
