Aaron Brooks Expects to Return to Phoenix, Would Leave Suns with One Fewer Roster Hole to Fill 小AB預計會跟太陽續約，所以太陽只剩最後一個輪值缺需要去填滿。 Phoenix Suns restricted free agent point guard Aaron Brooks, acquired in a trade deadline deal in exchange for fan favorite Goran Dragic and the Suns lower 1st round pick in the 2011 draft, expects to re-sign with the Suns, according to phone interview quotes from Hoops World. 太陽的限制自由球員控球後衛小AB，在今年季中交易大限前用觀眾最愛的小帥哥跟一個201 1年的第一輪選秀順位從火箭換過來的，根據Hoops Worlds的電話訪談中表示，他預計會 跟太陽續約。 Brooks struggled mightily as a Houston Rocket last season after badly spraining his ankle and losing his starting position. His play improved after the trade to Phoenix, but still left many Suns fans disappointed as he didn't provide the lift needed to get the team into the playoffs. The 2009-2010 NBA Most Improved Player averaged 9.6 points and 4.2 assists per game in his 25 games as a Sun. 小AB今年在火箭打得十分掙扎，因為他的腳踝傷勢，以及他失去的先發控球後衛角色。來 到太陽之後他的成績確實有進步，但是依然讓許多球迷失望了，因為他並沒有把我們帶進 季後賽。這位2009 - 2010的年度最佳進步球員今年在太陽的25場比賽中，平均拿下9.6分 以及4.2次助攻。 There is no shortage of Brooks critics among Suns fans, but there aren't many viable options at backup point guard among the free agent pool. If Brooks returns, it will mean one less roster hole the Suns need to fill going forward. 盡管批評他的聲浪不曾少過，但是今年的自由球員市場並沒有許多足以擔當大任的控球後 衛。如果他回來了，代表著太陽只剩下最後一個輪職缺需要填補。 Brooks' demeanor and attitude were questionable at the time of the trade since he sulked and complained after losing his starting job in Houston to Kyle Lowry, basically forcing the Rockets to trade him. His shoot-first mentality was also a little jarring for Suns fans used to seeing Steve Nash's uber-facilitating ways. 這筆交易當初最被質疑的地方就是，當失去先發位置時，小AB所表現出來的態度和行為， 這也是迫使火箭交易他的原因。他投籃第一的打球方式多少也讓許多習慣飄髮哥團隊最大 主義的球迷們發出聲音。 Still, Brooks did offer improvement from the erratic Dragic, posting better FG%, 3-pt%, FT%, points per 36 minutes and assists per 36 minutes, in addition to better on-court/off-court numbers. 但是不管怎麼說，小AB確實是打得比小帥哥好，不管是在投籃，三分球，罰球命中率， 每36分鐘的得分以及助攻比率。 Brooks had this to say to Hoops World about his time with Phoenix。 這邊節錄了一些小AB接受訪問時談到太陽的部分。 (全文請見 :　http://www.hoopsworld.com/Story.asp?story_id=20387 ， 但是標題又跟這篇不太一樣，冏） "All of the guys there are cool, but it was awkward for me because I've never been in that position," Brooks said. "I've never switched teams in the middle of the season, but they did a good job of making me feel comfortable while I was there. It was just different being thrown into a situation like that." "這邊所有的傢伙都很酷，但是對我來說還是表現得很不好因為我從來沒處在這樣的狀況 過。我從來沒在季中換過球隊，但是他們都讓我覺得很棒，在這裡很舒服。在這裡跟在那 邊的情況確實是不太一樣。" He also expressed interest in and expectation of returning to Phoenix when NBA basketball resumes after the lockout: 他同時表達了對於回到太陽他的興趣以及期待，尤其是在封館時期。 "All signs point to me going back to Phoenix," Brooks said. "I had a good time. I like the organization and it's a great city. I would love to continue playing in Phoenix. I would love to stay with this team." "所有的信號都指出我會回來這。我在這邊有段美好的時光，我喜歡這裡的組織而且這是 座很棒的城市。我會非常喜愛繼續為太陽效力。我會非常喜愛繼續留在這隻隊上。" And this Suns fan would love to have you back, Aaron. Just don't demand too big of a contract, OK? 當然啦，所有的太陽球迷也會很開心你留下來。但是不要太貴唷，啾咪。 來源：http://ppt.cc/3mBX --
