Rick talks about it all the time, I think players are not quite committed to it all the time and they revert to their comfort zones. Yao on the block - needs to move Battier in the corner - needs to move Ron at the top - needs to move Scola - DOES IT RIGHT. DD
6 assists to 7 turn overs over the last 3 games has a lot to do with Brook's taking heat for his PG performance. When he shoots like Rafer, but with inferior defense, more turn overs than assists and a lack of poise, why wouldn't people complain? That isn't to say other player's don't share in the blame, but Brooks often gives me the same feeling of frustration with his decision making that Francis did when he was running the PG position for us.
I keep wondering where that PnR with Yao rolling to the bucket when they are so over aggressive on Brooks. Now it just seems that he pops. But the team wont be going very far with Aaron passing up good shots and jumping into bad ones.
Could we stop picking on our players? I'm sure they gave the best they could. They're just not that good. Seems to me it is more his teammates' lack of movement that makes him a bad passer.
AB is doing his job. Like DD mentioned, there just isn't enough movement, especially inside. Yao looked really sluggish out there last night
Anyone else think he should pull up for more mid range j's tony parker style? If he does that wouldn't the bigs around the basket be forced to come and try to contest it opening up avenues for future drives? I see him pass up those open mid-range shots all the time..
Aaron Brooks has a Luther Head mentality. He has absolute zero use outside of shooting the basketball. He's too soft and scared to drive, to little and stupid to defend. He has absolutely no use to me, and this guy is the most overrated player on our team. I'll take 1 Jordan Farmar over 10 Aaron Brooks. Because I'm sure those 10 Aaron Brooks would fail to pass it to Yao, while 1 Jordan Farmar would be able to.
