That's what I'm wondering... LeBron isn't even in his prime yet. I don't see how anyone wouldn't want him before he entered his prime... and for what, a PG that MIGHT become an all-star in the future?
there are people that would actually pick lebron over brooks???? brooks is faster and a better 3 point shooter trade him for lebron puts us at about the same level as the nets.
lol @ a few people giving serious answers. On the real, I would trade Yao + Martin + Brooks + Morey + his staff + a lot of picks + anything else you can think of for LeBron James + whatever fillers to make that feasible.
Wow... this thread can't be real. What the hell are some of you thinking? Brooks for Lebron? REALLY??????! This has to be a joke. There's no way I'd ever trade Brooks for Lebron. Here's 10 reasons why this thread should be locked: 1. Brooks is younger than Lebron 2. Brooks is by far the greatest player ever to wear the #0 while Lebron is the 2nd greatest player to wear the #23 (behind Jordan) 3. Brooks holds the Rockets record for most 3 pointers in an NBA season while Lebron doesn't. 4. Brooks salary is much less than Lebron so we can go out and get others. 5. Brooks jersey sales in Houston are much greater than Lebron's jersey sales in Houston. 6. Lebron's elbow is hurting him = career is in jeopardy 7. Brooks resembles a famous actor (Chris Rock) while Lebron doesn't resemble anyone. 8. Brooks can out run Lebron in a foot race 9. Brooks is the Most Improved Player while Lebron has never won that award. Winning the MVP is much easier to do. 10. Brooks has more victories against the Lakers than Lebron Should I continue? Brooks = Back 2 back most improved player after next season.
Brooks can hit shots with his left arm Lebron doesnt. Brooks dance better than Lebron! Aaron Brooks wears #0 because that is the number of players better than him.
4real how can u compare AB to LeBron, he's the best in the league, size, quickness and every thing else he brings to the table, I'm a die hard Rockets fan and if it came down to it Brooks would be gone in a flash
HAHAHAHAHA. funnies thread in this forum of ever. People who would take James over brooks are crazy in definitly how could u need the MVP while the MIP is in the list. james sux, brooks is the jesus. lets keep this in mind no question, id vote to AB.
lock up this garbage, AB and Lebron shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence. If you really want a comparison check out my poll in the NBA dish.
ARE YOU GUYS SERIOUS?? Aaron Brooks 2010 stats: MPG-35.6 FG%-0.432 3P%0.398 FT%-0.822 OR-0.7 DR-2.0 RPG-2.6 APG-5.3 SPG- 0.8 BPG-0.2 TO-2.8 PF-2.4 PPG-19.6 Lebron James 2010 stats: MPG- 39.0 FG%-0.503 3P%-0.333 FT%-0.767 OR-0.9 DR-6.4 RPG-7.3 APG-8.6 SPG-1.6 BPG-1.0 TO-3.4 PF-1.6 PPG-29.7 As you can see, Brooks clearly beats him in stats, and he is faster stupid thread
I thought the OP did well with this thread Everytime I want a quick laugh to brighten up my day abit, I read this thread :grin:
And ultimately, the reason why the Rockets should never trade Brooks for Lebron James is because if the Rockets does so, there will be a MASSIVE hole at the point guard position and since Lebron can't play the point, the Rockets will then become a perennial lottery team. Brooks stays!!!
That's a great post, we also need more three-point shooters around Yao, of which there is none better than Aaron Brooks.
Aaron Brooks is a proven clutch player while Lebron has choked numerous times. We've all seen that Martin shies away from the ball in the last seconds, so losing Brooks would mean we have no one to give the ball to in the clutch moments of a game.
