Aaron Brooks bother by no contract extension

[magicbalala245]

Aaron Brooks had hoped his breakthrough season and status as the NBA’s Most Improved Player award winner would prompt the Rockets to offer a contract extension. Instead, he said the Rockets’ unwillingness to work on a new deal for beyond this season is “bothering” him. “It’s kind of stressful,” Brooks said. “I was hoping we maybe could get something done this summer, but we couldn’t, so I’m stuck in the position I’m in. “I understand, but it’s bothering me. It’s the business of basketball. You have to take it like it is. I’m stuck with that.” Brooks’ agent, Leon Rose, is scheduled to meet with general manager Daryl Morey today to discuss the situation, but he would not comment other to confirm the meeting. Asked if he felt he deserves a contract extension, Brooks said, “Oh, no doubt. I deserve at least discussions.”

I get where he is coming from, he was MIP and had a really good season. At the same time Aaron needs to elevate his point guard game, we know he can score but he needs to focus on passing and better decision making.

 

Kyle Lowry still is the better traditional point guard, and is now making more money than AB. It's only natural for AB to ask for some attention at this point.

Exactly could not have said it better myself.

The Rockets have a policy of letting the market decide what a player is worth. Landry, Scola and Lowry all went through this process but all weren't too happy with how it was handled.
