Rockets trade Aaron Brooks for Jordan Hamilton

Let me guess... the numbers are clear right? smh

 

Whoever rep'd me about being surprised about Hamilton. The answer is yes I was surprised it was Hamilton. But no I wasn't surprised we acquired a wing. However I really thought we'd get something else done for somebody with a little more experience and a better shooter and defender. Somebody like Brandon Rush. And if Utah buys out Rush I still expect Morey will make a run at him and possibly even waive Hamilton if he has to to get Rush on this roster. It is not a given that Hamilton will stay here the entire season.

 

Then don't make some stupid PREDICTIONS again.

 

Now Now... you know that's going to happen. Cuz you know I like making stupid predictions.

 

u said ur not going to argue. go play somewhere else.

 

He throws lots of stuff on the wall. Some day something's bound to stick. Like he predicted Brooks would be gone by the deadline. But more often than not he's wrong

 

Missed AB already. He's a glue guy. Hope everything pans out with Hamilton.

Awesome. I am glad to see he is excited about the new opportunity. Brooks will always be one of my favorite all time Rockets. He is a good enough player that he deserves to get some quality minutes.

 

I wish it is for Anthony Randolph.

 

I wish you good luck, AB. I hope you come back one day and retire a rocket.

 

Oh no! Basketballpathetic is trolling again .

Miss you already, Agent x0x0x0 .

 

Good luck, AB. You'll always have fans in Houston!

 

When will Hamilton play his first game?

 

I am not; I have wanted Hamilton for years (trade treads). Thought it would take more then Brooks to get him, too. He is the perfect fit for us (a 3 point shooter and rebounder) SPACING / SPACING / SPACING H&H, Lin, and Parsons all need it. He should get open looks all night long and will average 16+points a night - just hide and watch. YES, he is a chunker but he is on more than he is off. He grads a rebound, starts the brake, then sets-up for the kick out, 3 points. Will make Howard look even better in the 1/2 court sets, too.

If Randolph was going to happen - he already would have, IMO.

 

LOL Last time Lin was in the D-League he got a huge triple double. Lin dominated in D-League, that means nothing.

 

Now that is something I would be VERY happy about. Im sure Morey 'tried'.

 

AB is life, love, and happiness. Best of luck!

 

At the D-League level - as was stated above, there really is no comparison to the NBA - D-League can make scrubs look like stars and then they get to the NBA and they're just OK. Not saying he won't be good, but he has not proven anything in the least at the NBA level. Nada. I'm sure he'll get more chances very soon.

 

"AB my n**ga, I hate it had to be him..."


Played great for us considering his role.. Wishing him the best.
