    This x 100000

    Brooks doesn't see the court if Westbrook is playing bc he would get torched routinely. But w Lin out there's no one Brooks had to worry about guarding him and ain't no one on okc that can match his speed.

    Crazy how both Westbrook and Lin being out actually seem to help us.

    I love that we have Brooks back and he is playing well for us in the playoffs, like he did 4 years ago...

    Lol threads like these show the lack of knowledge of posters. Despite being 4-11 he put pressure on the defense and made them collapse. He gets a lot of hockey assist. I want him to keep shooting too.

    Don't accept that from a pig, pollo. That's not right. Different species. All humans can have a brotherhood, but chickens and ham don't bro down.

    Looks like a past injury in which he tweaked. I think it was his hamstrings or thighs

    LOL I actually laughed at this.

    FIFY. There is a reason everybody is ignoring him, he is making himself out to be a complete asshat with his stupid logic. No one watching the game could be seeing it that black & white, Fishturd is just an attention w**** and right now...its easy to see he is trying too hard to make an awesome player look bad.

    SamFisher's shining moment in the GARM :):

    After two games, what is a [Mike] James Hater to do?
    http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=136908

    A knee-jerk thread that even a Lin Only Fan could be proud of.

    This was a season where Mike James ultimately played 33 games for the Rockets at 16 mpg shooting 35% from the field while averaging a staggering 6.5 ppg until he was traded for Bobby Jackson.

    Good job Sam:

    It must feel great for Brooks to come full circle back to the Rockets and back in the playoffs playing well

    Not even close to my best moment, I nominate this gem, from last summer:


    http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?p=7233939&highlight=Harden#post7233939

    Or one that is near and dear to your heart, my prediction that the loss of Rudy Gay for Battier was a cataclysmic disaster (and we know how your special Durant level friend Rudy Gay and Shane "will never start on an NBA championship team" Battier have fared since...)

    I still love the Amity Assassin Mike James in the same irrational way that other folks irrationally love Aaron Brooks.

    As an aside - I'm actually a bit surprised Kwame that you are climbing down from your barber shop chair to toss Mike James under the bus.
    He doesn't really fit the profile of the typical Kwame whipping boy. Didn't go to Duke, his wife doesn't seem to have much in common with Battier's - IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN - he didn't go to private school, though he did show up on SuperNanny back in 2008. Maybe that's it.

    I still maintain though that the Rockets made a mistake when they traded James away to Toronto day, and instead opted to go with "All the Rockets Need" Rafer Alston at point guard. If you believe that (and the Rockets obviously didn't, and ended up being the team paying the damned trade kicker..anyway), John Lopez says hola!

    What I do know about Brooks is that the folks predicting him to be a franchise palyer based on his MIP season were obviously wrong, though I wont' claim credit to predicting his meteoric NBA flameout where he ended up in Guangdong and then cut from the Kings.

    But, happy to see him contributing something to the Rockets, even if it's a low bar that La Puta Hermanita is having a seizure about; better to get a small payment from your insurance policy than none at all. :)

    It does feel great to have Brooks helping the Rockets in the clutch again like he did last night:

    When Fisher is matched up against Brooks - we need to be spreading the floor and getting OKC's big men out of the paint.

    Fisher cannot stay in front of Brooks at all.
    We need to run a few plays that gets Brooks easy shots at the ring - hopefully getting Fisher planted on the bench where his miracle 3s and flopping nonsense can't happen.

    It'd be nice to get Fisher in foul trouble early; especially if the bulk of his charges are blocking fouls instead.

    I'm enjoying watching Brooks out there as well. D-fish couldn't handle him four years ago during the playoffs, and he's even more helpless now. And FYI, Brooks' end of quarter iso is MONEY.
