With Aaron Brooks having wandered into Rick Adelman‘s doghouse recently — he’d been coming off the bench since returning from an ankle injury a few weeks ago, and sat out last night’s game in Denver after being suspended one game by Adelman for conduct detrimental to the team — the reigning NBA Most Improved Player is rumored to be on the trading block as the Feb. 24 deadline approaches.

With the NBA Trade Deadline a few weeks away, the rumors are already beginning to intensify. Last week, there was chatter that Mo Williams was being shopped by Cleveland, and this week the noise surrounds his teammate Antawn Jamison.
