Is Aaron Brooks good or bad? Does he actually contribute to winning??

Dude, no offense, but you are a complete numbnut and the reason no one wants to help answer your question is because you are such a complete numbnut who is completely oblivious on just how big of a numbnut you are.

 

Because he's a young player trying to find his way with a veteran team. He needs to find a medium that benefits both sides. he will need to learn when to turn it on and off. thats why everyone says pg is the hardest position to learn in the nba.

 

if AB's BB IQ not increased, then i simply want AB on the bench in most of time, just use him in some special situation.

 

AB's court vision is poor and that ability never can improved by training. His ceiling might be Bobby Jackson IMO.

 

Aaron is a good player and glad he is on our team. I am not saying he doesn't make mistakes. However, we all need to keep in mind that he is a developing talent, and he is still learning. I like the speed he has, and how he enables us to pick up the tempo. On certain nights it creates a huge match up advantage for us depending on the opposition. He will fix some of these mental mistakes with more experience. Right now he can be frustrating to watch at times because he takes shots when he should be passing, but I still think his true potential is yet to be seen.

 

I prefer Ron to dribbling instead of AB, but shooting the ball by AB as long as 20/5 from pathetic Ron.

 

At BEST.

I would be THRILLED if he can be as good as Bobby, but i kind of doubt it...

 

Aron cant delivery when it matters,

 

Only an idiot would say that Brooks didn't contribute to the Rockets winning.

 

Yes,that's true. Bobby is more of a 1 and a half then Brooks. Aaron's court vision is less than his and he is shorter/leaner as well. Bobby also had quick hands on defense and used to come up with steals. I don't see Aaron hitting many clutch shots either.

 

corrected

 

wow brooks was bad last night. it was like he was making an impression to not shoot the ball or look for his shot. im telling u we need our PGs to score 20+ if we want to go deep in the playoffs.

 

Aaron Brooks is the future of our team. He has all the skills to be an explosive point for years to come. He has speed, shooting, passing, and handling skills that are either above average or amazing.

Having said that, his only achilles heel is mental. He needs to know that when 5 guys are on the court, everyone has to contribute. Yes this is Yao Ming's team, but he needs help too. He needs to understand that he should take at least 10 shot attempts a game because his offensive game is a big strength for the team. Shane has defense, so he doesnt need to take as many shots, but Brooks has offense, so he needs to shoot.

Good Win and lets take care of business in portland!

 

it's really not too hard to spell the word 'YOU'.

and its really not too hard to actually watch the Rockets game to see if Aaron Brooks passes the ball to Yao.

The game is on NBATV, I suggest you watch it this time or find someone with a TIVO to record it for you.

 

AB is a weapon. You don't use the same weapon on every opponent or circumstance your in. Sometimes you need a grendade, sometimes a shotgun, sometimes a hand gun. AB contributes to winning if used correctly.

If he has a supreme quickness advantage against an opponent on offense, his deficiencies can be masked by his teammates on defense.

 

If you can't see the value Aaron Brooks brings to the team in his first year as a starter then some of you need to go watch some old tape of Tony Parker in 2002-2003. And for the people who said his ceiling is Bobby Jackson...Bobby Jackson was a freaking sixth man of the year, we could be so lucky if he gets that good.

 

Some people around here actually think Brooks is as good as Rondo.
JJ Barea anyone?

 

No more hyperbole than folks saying he does not contribute to winning.

 

If AB is the future of this team, Rox is doomed. He's a backup PG material, who can be used as instant offense from outside. His indecision can be improved over his career, but lack of court vision is going to be fatal.

AB's shooting is average at best among NBA starting PGs, and to call AB's passing "above average or amazing" is worth a good laugh.

AB played very well in game 1 except 3 or 4 dribble maniac possesions, but he's been playing worse and worse ever since on.
