I was sure you were going to post we should sign him to a 4 year deal!

It’s weird how some players seem like they’ve been playing forever- his Nets days seem like a lifetime ago, it’s odd seeing him have success still with the Bucks playing in different ways

Agree all points except one. I'd say Brook has lived up to his potential. I don't think anyone saw him as a HOFer when he was drafted. He's been a good offensive center and has managed to stay relevant for a number of seasons, even as the expectations for his position have drastically changed. All though he has good coordination, he was never confused with being a + athlete. Even in his youth. He had an eight season stretch of averaging 17-20 ppg. His per 36 scoring numbers are impressive. Career PER of 19.
