Restricted Free Agent Aaron Brooks Happy With Suns

[BullsAj]

Aaron Brooks will never be Steve Nash but with confidence and more time in the system he can make sure the Suns have one less hole to address.

Part of the problem, of course, is that all point guards who go through Phoenix are compared to Nash. It's a no-win approach because few are as adept as Nash at improving everyone else around them.

He'll be gone soon. And the Suns need to figure out ways to make the segue less painful.

"Despite how things went, I think Phoenix is a good place for me," Brooks said.

"The players, management, fans; everything about the team I liked. That's not something you always find."

Brooks is an excellent starter and he could be a starter for many teams... What do you guys think about Brooks? I think he's a pretty pesky defender and he can manage a team well... He likes to score more than pass though...

I don't really like his style of play though, I think he shoots waaaaay too much. We need a pass first point guard in this system but I wouldn't mind seeing him for another year or so while we try to find a replacement.
