    Come playoff time, the Rockets will really need his experience

    -various commentators around the time of the trade.

    i was literally just about to start a "Obligatory Aaron Brooks criticism thread" and ask Clutch to sticky it.

    at least we can try to keep it to one incredibly lame thread frequented by n00bs and rookies.

    I still think one of the reasons the trade was made was so Rafer didnt break up the team chemistry when Brooks took the starting job from him. Brooks was out playing Alston and it was only a matter of time until he became the starter.

    I miss his perky personality and he fun easy going love of life -- if he was playing we'd be up by 50.

    Alston would have put up 40-50 tonight.

    Enjoy the win but our point guard play goes up and down. Let's hope Brooks keeps it going.

    Like everybody else on the team, AB brought his "A" game tonight against the heartless, gutless, chokers known as the Blazers. Major props to him.

    Agreed - today's win was pure coaching, no doubt about it.

    I honestly can't believe at least one person took this thread seriously.

    AB can do better. This is not AB's best game.

    Have a hard time giving out compliments, huh?

    It's okay, baby steps... baby steps.

    Rafer fixed the Magic and led them to the 3rd seed in the East.
