    AB did a great job in garbage time.

    I'm happy when he plays well. It seems like every time I said something good about Brooks, Lowry lovers had a huge attitude about it. I like Lowry, but it's possible to think Brooks is a good player too! Sheesh!

    Uh, second game as a Sun.

    Suns insider said he wanted out of Houston. Brooks saying his agent got him to Phoenix suggests that may have been the case.

    He turned garbage time to crunch time.

    Crunch time? They were never closer than 8 points. Then he turned the ball over killing his team's run...sounds familiar.

    an 8 point deficit is much better than a 30 point one. he single handedly brought them back in to the game.

    I wish Aaron well but considering he is on a team we need to catch, not to well. He lead a nice rally but it was VERY obvious the Celtics let up BIGTIME and as soon as they felt some pressure they turned it on again. Still important for him because minutes like that are important for him to learn their system.

    Actually, AB doesn't have a turnover problem over his first three years. Your "Dragon" has a huge turnover problem, like his last game, you know, as a Rocket. One assist and two turnovers in like 8 flipping minutes.

    Happy for AB, even though I agree it wasn't a close game. 7 dimes isn't too shabby in limited minutes.

    Some interesting things in this article: http://www.azcentral.com/sports/suns/articles/2011/03/02/20110302phoenix-suns-guard-aaron-brooks-provides-big-spark-off-bench.html


    I miss the kid but Lowry is a special player and earned his gig. The move improved the Rockets, on and off the court. Hopefully Brooks learned from his mistakes in a tough season and can find a niche in this league. Games like tonight should keep some scouts interested.

    I hate to say it but Brooks can easily become phoenix's future point guard, did anyone catch him distributing the ball like never before during tonight's garbage/clutch time??? I wonder if DM just threw him over there to learn a few things from Nash before offering him a contract this summer.....doubt it.

    Yeah well Lowry did Brick about three game tieing 3's down the stretch, something Brooks rarely did during his time here.....(just for the record I was in favor of shipping Brooks out of H-town)

    Lets not act like Brooks was so big time closer here in Houston. People were complaining about us having no Closer when Brooks was our lead guy last year

    Considering the fact the Rockets are behind the Suns for a playoff spot....

    I hope his game slips....and he and the suns fail....

    great point proving you didn't watch the game.

    He brought them from 30 down early on to within single digits.
