We should maybe try and post his game highlights after each game to keep track of his season. Always good to keep track of our rookies, we know one is in KFC so only got CCTV of him so we'll use youtube for Brooks highlights. Lets hope he has many more!!!

I'm going to make Mar$wag T-Shirts and sell them at Nets home games. They'll be a hit I tell you! A hit!

I haven't been around to watch any of the full games, but after watching those highlights I can definitely tell that he's got the goods. He may not be an allstar but he'll definitely be a good player. He's what you call a scorer.

Also, I was really impressed by his activity outside of scoring. He's using his length to alter shots and reach for steals. That McGrady block was impressive.

The fact that Avery can give him the ball in late-game situations and he still generates offense through an iso speaks volumes about his maturity on the offensive end. I didn't think he had a shot a ROY consideration, but if Avery gives him minutes and he can help us win some games, I can definitely see him up there.

Nenad Krstic?
Ryan Anderson?

Besides, he's already accomplished more than most of our draft picks in recent history. Antoine wright's season high his rookie year was 7 points. Damion James' career high is 15 points. Brooks surpassed both in his 2nd game in the NBA.

DarkXaero · Post #10 » by **DarkXaero** » Sun Jan 1, 2012 7:48 pm

Right now, he's playing too well. His PER 36 and advanced stats numbers are insane. As much as I would love to see him continue to play at this level, I don't think this is going to last long. Still though, it's good to see him to start off so well.

Ryan Anderson was decent his rookie year. I'm pretty sure his development would have continued just as well if we hadn't traded him.

And Nenad Krstic was a potential all-star in the making. You probably forgot how good the guys was for us before his career changing injury.

I didnt forget but you must have forgotten when i said Nets never have LUCK when it comes to late picks

Let me first say I completely don't buy the MarShon = Kobe comparisons but when i saw the MarShon block on T-Mac it immediately conjured images of this play in mind:

Now granted that was prime T-Mac while MarShon blocked AARP T-Mac but still the blocks unfolded pretty similarly...

On second glance:

The plays weren't that similar other than that they involved T-Mac but for whatever reason the Kobe on T-Mac block was what I immediately thought when I saw the above play live :lol:

Can't get too many highlights when your coach plays you 12 minutes.

vincecarter4pres · Post #17 » by **vincecarter4pres** » Mon Jan 2, 2012 6:26 am

But 12 minutes is a whole quarter yo!

N Ireland Nets · Post #18 » by **N Ireland Nets** » Mon Jan 2, 2012 12:03 pm

He only played 8minutes in all reality because he was put in for all the garbage time like at the end when all the starters were pulled.

Avery sucks hard, we lacked scoring and he never gave the kid a chance. He missed an open 3 and had a bad shot, the 3rd was when the clock ran down and he threw it up. Avery is an idiot, how can he not see that if he played Williams in his proper position to give someone like Brooks and Morrow open looks that our offense would dramatically improve.

Probably because in his prime, Tmac's jumper is practically unblockable.

Nenad was the best pick and pop big man in the league.
