Last night showed that when the Lakers are playing well and when Kobe is playing well, a team like Houston cannot play at that level. Brooks played almost the entire game and his speed racked up; 5-for-15 shooting, taking ill-advised long jumpers, an effective 2 assists and 13 points. Last nights game shows me that possession after possession, Aaron Brooks is not going to be Rick Adelman's answer to beating the Lakers.
I don't think that he is going to be the answer to beat the Lakers but considering who he has to go against I don't think he will have trouble putting up numbers. Even last night with a terrible night he put up 13 points.
