warcore Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 I think with Brooks, maybe he could turn into a really good 6th man. He is only 6 feet and he doesn't appear to have great playmaking skills and he is far too short to play SG. So, at best you're probably looking at a quality 6th man. Maybe.He's listed at 6'5" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plainview1981 Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 He's listed at 6'5"I was mixing him up with Aaron Brooks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ag82 Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 Just a few numbers to throw out there:He had a TS% of .502 which places him somewhere between Josh and TMaceFG% of .465 somewhere between Josh and StackPER of 12.9 is somewhere between Vlad and TmacWS/48 of .022, way under the league averageoRTG of 98, between stack and kirk.The only place he's really near the top for his team is in Usage.Just something to think about.

DrReality Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 JJ kills our offense and that causes problems with our chemistry. Maybe brooks would be more coach able Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus he is 23 and Joe is 31. TBH, I would be okay with getting nothing in return if it meant we were rid of Joe's contract. Anything else, particularly a local kid with a little bit of potential, is icing on the cake. It's a no-brainer.

Admin capstone21 Posted July 1, 2012 Admin Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 We better get Brooks if the trade is made. He is a good player with a lot of potential. I don't want to trade JJ for nothing but garbage which is what the trade initially is (Farmer/Petro/Morrow). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe just ended up getting much much better. You can't expect every inefficient rookie PG to improve the way Joe has. That doesn't make any sense.

He could be the next Tyronn Lue, I would take him if it means we get rid of JJ's contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brotha2ThaNite Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 If we only get Marshon Brooks for Joe, I think we will win and won't drop off any games. I know that sounds crazy but you can bank it! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that sounds crazy but you can bank it! :-)That sounds crazy. That sounds as crazy as my Machado would start this year over Teague statement which I ever said but it would sound that crazy if I said it.I don't see why you guys like him so much. He's like Nick Young and could potentially be Jamal. That's nothing to get happy about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Diesel Posted July 1, 2012 Premium Member Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 If you really consider it. Let's say Orlando doesn't trade Howard. If JJ can get Deron resigned, the Nets could possibly Amnesty JJ and have 20 Million in cap room to sign say.. D-12. A Russian Billionaire can do what he wants. It's funny but if the NBAPU can get the NBA to declare Howard a FA, you may see this happen now.. or D-12 come in for a 1 yr deal with the Nets only to reup next year at a higher bid.What has me puzzled is Marshon Brooks?Really? This guy is the linchpin? Well, I think i get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators PSSSHHHRRR87 Posted July 1, 2012 Moderators Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 There's a reason the Nets don't want to part with him for Joe Johnson. Probably because the Magic want Brooks... Nets want to give us garbage and then turn around and give the Magic Brooks and Lopez for Howard. Guaran-frickin-tee it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joker Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 (edited) I agree. Just since we have a legit shot at a Howard trade. I would take all their assets if they want Joe. That means Brooks and Morrow. Edited July 1, 2012 by Joker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its just Joe's contract that is killing this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
