LeBron James is the NBA’s all-time leading scorer, a four-time MVP and four-time champion, and a 19-time All-Star. That doesn't matter to Dillon Brooks. joevardon dives deep into the Brooks-James dust-up:
Dillon Brooks“I poke bears — I don’t respect no one until they come and give me 40 ,” Brooks said.in Game 2 of this Western Conference playoff series, James and Brooks began jawing at each other with 8:06 left in the third quarter. The Lakers were down 20 at one point, but James was beginning to bring them back, and when Brooks was whistled for his fourth foul, according to Brooks, LeBron said to him: “You’re dumb for getting that foul.
“He’s a special player. … These special players, they want to play in space, they want to not be touched… but when you get to the playoffs and bumps are allowed and stuff like that, it wears on him.” James, who is 38, one of the most accomplished and decorated playoff performers in NBA history, and who is playing on a foot injury that he said was recommended for surgery, was not asked about Brooks during his postgame interview.
Brooks has been the Grizzlies’ primary defender on James, and has sought to body up the 6-8, 260-plus pound scoring machine. Brooks said “it’s going well. I’m trying to, with not fouling, with little bumps here and there, get him tired.”
