    Brooks if he plays like Trevor Ariza played his second contract with Houston is a steal. But if he plays like Ariza first deal with Houston, Houston we have a problem.

    He's playing great for Canada, finding teammates and playing defense, only shoots when he's open

    Kinda confirms his reputation.

    Good defender, good communicator, encourages his teammates. ;)

    But on offense...

    "shot creator but not shot maker" :D

    "Shot volume no less ~~12 shots per game" ? :confused:

    And his lingering desire to still want to be ball dominant. o_O

    Brooks was 8th worst in the entire league in FG%

    DaMichael basically said Dillon has the mentality of a 2nd option so whenever one of the stars whether that is Desmond or Ja is missing. (He is a semi capable shot creator, he can get some separation but the mentality on Offense is not good.)

    He is going to chuck it on Offense, on Defense he is not going for steals, blocks or deflections.

    He is basically just bodying up, trash talking, getting into people’s faces! And Fouling above all!

    Albeit a decent defender, not to the level of details of a Battier or Draymond, a tier below.

    Except for Killian Hayes who just has no shot, the list is 80% defenders.

    Efficiency and defense are pretty rare.....it is mostly one way or the other than most think.

    Lol @ DiLLION.

    We’ll see how good he is without JJJ and Stevens behind him,

    He already knows that this will be his role moving forward in his career. This will be his role here. If he's not playing hero ball for team Canada, he won't be playing it here. The Rockets staff has apparently laid this out for him. He's just giving us an early glimpse of what to expect from him as a Rocket.

    Brooks is lucky. The only stat that matters is wins and losses. He doesn’t need to worry about that FG%.

    Rockets need to open up a Katy-based expansion team to absorb all these franchise players.

    If Brooks really wants to fit in Rockets Red, he needs to hook up with my HTown Homie and get his Barber hookup...

    Wish we still had this HTown proud man on our team!!! :(...;)


    Go Rockets!!!
