I doubt Brooks can be had, as Mavs can (best case) offer MLE tops, and Memphis would likely easily offer a bit more.
Brooks may be legit crazy.
But I agree with the above. The Mavs need someone (hopefully a good sized wing) who stars hate playing against. It is something we have been missing. A little crazy (at least one guy) wouldn't hurt, if it was the right kind of crazy. A player like this allows Luka to be Luka and not get into the weeds with all the shannagins teams try to put him in.
