Jeff Green must have some incriminating photos of Brooks stashed somewhere. There is no other way to explain this sh*t.
That last shot from KD was dumb, but the whole premise of the play was wrong. Giving him the ball out there and asking KD to go iso is not his strong suit. 15secs is more than enough time to draw up a play to try and free him up for a good look(e.g. Knicks game last season).

Guy's you know that Brooks won't get fired if Sam is around. I mean i think were going to keep him up to 3 or 4 years....

Full list of power forwards to play 40 minutes in a game and not get a rebound (since 1986):
35 year old Clifford Robinson in 2001
3PT specialist Pat Garrity in 2003
OKC starting PF with great intangibles Jeff Green in 2011

Stop it man !
Green started this season in a good manner. Now he is in a slump , it is his last year before the free agency and try allot more than he should . When Green plays with his in game IQ he does good !
Brooks is last year COY ! Are you sure you wanna let him go ? Thats dumb !
Chemistry is developing in time , we are not yet a championship team , we need a legit center and what Brooks is trying to prove is that the other guys must step up the game with KD , team wins games not a single player !
Our biggest problem right now is SHOT SELECTION !

It's alright that he has been in a slump with his shooting and keep trying with however many shots he's taking from inside the arc and even beyond the arc. But 0 rebound is bad, he's our PF even if he can't grab offensive rebound, for one that play 40mins i dont think it's unreasonable to expect at least 3-4 rebounds.
His shooting wasn't on, his rebounding was non-existant and it's not like he played point forward so what were the intangibles? 6-6 from free throw? Shouldn't we expect more from a spacing power forward?
What legit center is out there that can cover for his weakness in rebounding/defence as well? If his shot persist we're playing 3 on 5 when we're on offence. How could the other guys like Harden step up when he's only given half the minutes of green?

Man, I think you're tottally wrong. Brooks won an award, but this don't mean he is 'da bass coach eva'. He still has a lot to prove and we're playing STUPID, and I think when a team plays that way, it's coach's fault.
Lol, our players don't look for better positioned player over than shooting in traffic and you don't think there's something wrong with our head coaching? Brooks' team looks like a bunch of high schoolers against Spurs and Mavs, and Knicks, why not? We have good players but we have a crap team. You don't blame Brooks?
You think it's all right just because Brooks won a **** award?
