I like Brooks. He's got a gift for scoring the ball and he's got a lot of talent. I am worried about his game fitting into the NBA though. While watching him play, it seemed to me that he improved a ton when they started using Porter at the point. Brooks never seemed like a natural at that position and I'm afraid that he'd have to be in the NBA because there just isn't a really big market for 6'0 shooting guards. As I said, he can play so I'm pretty sure he can make a team and contribute a little something but I don't think he'll have a really big impact.
