There were a flurry of trades before the deadline on Thursday, some of which were expected, and some of which caught everyone by surprise. One that was somewhat of a shock was the Rockets trading Aaron Brooks to the Suns for Goran Dragic and a 1st-round pick. Brooks was long rumored to be on his way out of Houston (especially after his recent dust-up), but the fact that he went to Phoenix was a bit of a surprise to most.
Maybe it shouldn’t have been.
The Suns posted video yesterday of Brooks, then a prospect making the rounds, working out for then-assistant-and-now-head coach Alvin Gentry before the 2007 NBA Draft. Roll it!
2007, what a simpler time. The Celtics were pre-Big Three, Greg Oden was still reasonably healthy, and Blake Griffin was just a gleam in KIA Motors eye.
