(CHRONIC) Point guard wishes Rockets would extend contract to match his growing value

Lmao...Is this an ignorant way of saying you disagree with what I said

 

How? Please explain

And its ridiculous

 

the only exception is rose. Billups & Nash are past their respective primes. Brooks outplayed both of them and Rondo in the last game against the Celtics IN BOSTON ( you wouldn't know because you don't catch many games ). And Curry's not even a point guard, which confirms you have no clue what your posting

 

Curry is a point guard first of all.

2nd of all, Brooks had to have his best game, but you conviently left out the part that if was Hayes who won the game for us for his shutdown defense on Pierce the last play. Obviously you don't watch the games.

And LMAO on Nash and Billups past their primes. Nash will still average 20 ppg like Brooks, but he will average 12-13 assists as well.

Billups will also average 20 ppg, but he will add defense as well, something Brooks is allergic to.

 

I'm still not convinced you watched the finals, now I don't know whether or not you watched the Rockets/Lakers series a couple of years ago either. You don't think the Lakers schemed to stop Brooks once they finally woke up? And Bryant WASN'T GUARDING RONDO! It was plainly obvious. You say the Lakers were allowing open outside shots but Artest and Fisher weren't leaving their men. Bigs helping out on penetration is normal. It's an odd way to scheme to stop someone by not paying any attention to him at all. But I agree that it was clearly their strategy and if you want to call it a scheme to stop Rondo then fine.

About Brooks not being able to get the ball to Yao while supposedly Lowry can. Lowry has only been on the team with Yao for 20-some games, and of course we know he wasn't starting during that time, so the amount of minutes he's played with Yao are pretty minimal. In fact, if you want to evaluate Lowry on the games he played with Yao, the 13 playoff games are a good chunk of that, and we saw how much he struggled. Brooks can't get the ball to Martin now either? What? Where are you pulling that from?

Let me also point out that we no longer know whether or not Yao is our best option offensively anymore, and Brooks had a better TS% than Martin before Martin was traded to the Rockets, and that's while spending a large portion of his minutes with Hayes, Battier, and Ariza on the court with him.

 

That's a pretty harsh statement, but what is so great is TheFreak is not getting into a semantic argument, which shows how much he respects aelliott. I think I'm going to make some popcorn. It's Saturday!

 

Before the summer, I would have agreed with you. Then Lowry got a contract that was larger than I had expected. Now Brooks is crying about his non-extension. Like I said, we all want to keep them both, if we can afford it.

Last year the 4 was arguably as strong as the 1. (Is that what your superstition is preventing you from saying it?) Morey did ship out Landry before his rookie contract was up even though the Scola-Landry combo was having their way with the competition.

 

no, pick another number.

 

I mean this year. sry, i can't edit my posts.

 

I don't know... because one has a job description that says "Point Guard" and the other carries a sign that reads "Shooting Guard?"

 

Nash has never averaged 20ppg or even 12apg. Billups has never averaged 20ppg.

Just sayin...

 

Billups averaged 19.5 ppg, 6 apg, and 1 stl per game last season.

Nash averaged 11 apg last season and scored about 17-18 ppg last season.

I'd take that over Brooks inflated 20 ppg and 4 apg anyday of the week.

Just sayin...

 

My original post was" Are you sure is that rare for any GOOD player inm his first years in NBA?" ....Are you sure among GOOD players, is that rare to improve in NBA?...Brooks is a good player, where did I say other think?

My point is not Brooks is a bad player...my point is...if you can take advantage of a RECENT official NBA award and get players that suit better to the Rockets? what's the problem with that?

so? missing Yao, Scola, Martin (not players like Chuck)... WIDE OPEN (not just slightly open) OVER AND OVER (not just in very rare times)...are you sure that's normal in PG with at least AVERAGE (not good) court vision?

If you'd READ efficiently, you'd realize that I placed these names because they were used as excuse why Brooks was reluctant to pass....they saiud, pass to who? Ariza, Chuck?....that's why I said, not only to them, but also to Yao, Scola or Kevin Martin.....Do you understand now, or shall I use apples to explain it?

If so, why RealGM TRADE CHECKER accepted both trades? care to explain me?

Why so huge? Iggy in exchange Recently awarded MIP Brooks, plus expiring of Jeffries, plus fillers and in the very worst case scenario, a big sweetener (one of the multiple first round picks Houston has)......why is that soooo impossible, could you explain?

One Brooks is gone AFTER THAT (not before), an extra PG will be needed, isn't it? so, that's why I proposed Hinrich, because he's the best PG who could be traded with not so many assets....he's undervalued now because of his contract and because since the arrival of Derrick Rose to Chicago, he went to the Bench and played SG also...
and exactly because of that, Hirnrich would have the best ratio of quality/price_to_pay....

A trade of Battier(expiring, locker room leader) in exchange of Hinrich could work, and you could add sweeteners (a pick, jordan Hill, who knows)....

Could you ellaborate why these 2 trades would be soooo impossible? saying that it's mroe possible that Lebron arrives to Houston....?

And finally, the current backcourt of Brooks+Martin+Batteir, would be better than the backcourt after the proposed trades? Hinrich+Martin+Iggy

THINK and answer with good arguments, please...

 

Curry's a shooting guard who can slide over and cover point guard duties. Golden St didnt bring him in to set the offense up, they drafted him to come off picks and shoot. After all, that's what shooting guards do

Um, after Brooks hit that step back 3pter on Tony Allen (a great defender) to send it to overtime. You must've slept through that part

Possibly true. However, Brooks outplayed Nash & Billups in games we won last year. So would I trade the leagues MIP Aaron Brooks for a almost 40 Steve Nash? HELL NO. You would, but you mentioned trading Brooks for a back up in Kirk Hinrich so you have absolutley ZERO credibilty at this point.

How was Billups "defense" on Deron Williams in last years playoffs?


NOTE
Your posts are idiotic and purely entertaining. Aaron will have another fantastic season and I'll make sure to repost all your nonsense and we'll see how much you'll have to backtrack on your statements. You seem like that the type to deny everything when the season starts

 

you really don't know what you're talking about. If you watched any GS games you realized that they thought Ellis wasn't fit to be a PG. They draftedCurry to play PG and be the team's playmaker. He has tremendous vision.

I guess they are even.

no one can shut down Williams. He's a beast.

oh whatever...

 

Hmm, that would explain the comparison to Reggie Miller. Oh wait a minute, Reggie was a shooting guard

What your purposed of posting Trevor Ariza highlights in Aaron Brooks thread? I dont think I've mentioned Ariza one time, so i'm not sure what statement your making with posting this

The question is regarding Billups apparent lock down defense that some idiot mentioned. At this point, if we're not getting Williams, Paul, or Jennings, theres no trade that will upgrade our point guard position.

 

Yeah, sorry about that aelliott. Nice to see you heypartner.

 

When the hell has Stephen Curry ever been compared to Reggie Miller?

He has the ceiling to potentially become a Nash-like PG with the worst case being a Mike Bibby type player.

Dood, you need to step away from the keyboard.

 

The Brooks hate has got to stop.

I know scapegoating is nesecary for the weak minded, but this is getting ridiculous. The second Ariza was traded, a new bullseye was drawn.

 

OH NOES! WE NEEDS TO TRADE BROOKS ASAP!

:grin:
