I just think there’s enough there to see a hard worker put things together on that side. In our offense, he’d have some semblance of a Reggie Bullock role, but with the added ability to close out on the defender.
Don´t think the comparisation works. Both are still comfortably ahead of Brooks when it comes to key scoring efficiency numbers like TS% or PPP. Margin for Levert is smaller (~2% TS) but he is also a better playmaker. THJ is simply a way better shooter (with a similar chucker mentality). Even before he joined the Mavs he had 1 1/2 seasons with the Hawks that are levels above the best version of Brooks when it comes to shooting percentages.
Found an article that says it way better than I ever could. With a spot on prediction for the postseason.

There is a lot to like when it comes to his defense and hustle. But on offense he combines a "Kobe" mentality with Frank Nitilikina level shot making ability.
I am not completly out on the idea if he signs for the BAE and accepts a smaller role on offense. But that goes against everything Brooks stated in the last couple of month. He wants a bigger role and a big contract.
