    Pass. He is going to want to start and I want a way better SF than that.

    Tinman, the mere suggestion bro…

    he’s a cheap nutt knocker, not a ball breaker. We need ball breakers ;) And he can’t shoot.

    He’s what you get when Ben Simmons thinks he’s Kobe.

    I would love him in a 2022 Garrison Mathews type role and contract, but after starting for a playoff team he is not going to accept that role. I'm uninterested in giving him real money or a full time starting job.

    No. He's only 27 but he looked washed up and was never a good offensive player.

    I would only start him if the Rockets were still facing Golden State in the playoffs and we needed someone to give Draymond Green some of his own moving screens, holds, eye pokes, and groin kicks.

    DPOY J Jackson jr

    Now that's a player we need and I'm willing to trade (SnT) for



    He did a cryptic tweet recently. Thank you Memphis, I will always be grateful.
    Something like that.

    If Jason Terry and Scottie Pippen can becomes Rockets…

    ;)

    Brooks was actually drafted by the Rockets.

    He’s PatBev. Beverley, Lance Stephenson, Brooks. This board loved PatBev.
    Overrated defensively
    Chirp chirp chirp
    Doesn’t meet a camera/microphone they don’t like
    Love him when he’s on your team, hate him when he’s not.

    So he talked some ****, got roasted, then ducked the media (LOL) …OK, whatevs.

    Professional antagonizer and heel :D

    TO BE CLEAR, I AM NOT ADVOCATING FOR DILLON BROOKS

    He can't shoot. Not sure what he gives you over Tate.

    Hard pass. Grant Williams is also a good defender, can shoot, and knows what the coach will want.

    I’d rather groom and develop Eason if we’re not in position to draft Miller than sign Brooks

    Even if he's asking 12M. I still don't want him. Rather pay 25M per for Cam Johnson.

    Naw this is disrespectful to Bev who's a career 37% 3PT shooter on decent volume, nearly averages a 3-1 A/TO... and has higher career averages in rebounds, blocks, and steals than Dillon despite being 6'1 180

    Bev >>> Dillon
