He was never much of a shooter, but was still pretty athletic, talented and versatile at one stage (played all three perimeter positions in college), played within his limitations and provided some quality defense. He seemed to have peaked at around 22-23 years old, and has been on a steady decline ever since, to the point where he's now virtually useless and has been dumped mid-season by a team that could definitely still use perimeter defense. He's never had any real history of major injuries as far as I know, so what went wrong?
I remember the day when the article about rockets signing brewer was here, i mentioned that he was overvalued, a wasted talent, and waste of space that shouldn't be looked at. All three turned out to be correct.
Brewer's problem is that he lacked the ability to improve. There are some people who will hit their plateau just after being in the league for a year or two, and that was brewer. Coaches however were interested in his good defense, and athleticism. They always try to develop him but he always remained sub par. That is just how it is sometimes, not every player has the ability to grow. This is why i wanted rockets to avoid him from the start, he was just a waste of time and money.
