[Highlight] Dillon Brooks tries his best to rage bait Lebron with cheap shots
I honestly don’t mind the antics but this seems way overboard. Bro is out there bodychecking a 40 year old man who has his back turned
Tbf, it probably would have worked on a lot of guys that aren’t LeBron. Also Brooks has a hate boner for him, so he might just be doing it for the love of the game lol
“If he gives in i win and he knows that”
Brooks is NOT Tien. He’s Yajirobe on a good day, Mercenary Tao on a bad day
Yajirobe saved Earth before lol
He’s the one who stops Vegeta* in his ape form in DragonBall.*
Without Yajirobe, Earth is donzo.
Plus, he’s one of the only people who survives deep into the future with Goku Black and Zamasu slaughtering everyone.
Yajirobe is a fucking dog.
*edit to correct info
You’re 100% right. Brooks is Emperor Pilaf on a good day
Yajirobe cuts off vegetas tail not gokus
Ah, you right! Yamchas old haircut had me mis-remembering lol
Even more impressive tbh. Vegeta is way stronger than child Goku. I’m sure his great ape form inherited some of that as well.
Either way, Yajirobe dips sometimes but he’s stood up against some pretty impossible odds and came out on top multiple times lol
As a normal human with universal level threats around, that’s damn impressive.
Vegeta in the saiyan saga was way stronger than adult goku too, so it’s super impressive for yajirobe
They had to full on jump vegeta and still barely “won”
Hehe, I need to rewatch DBZA. I wish they somehow made a whole episode dedicated to Vageta and Tian. Or even Piccolo and Vageta.

Brooks is a pussy. Wants all the smoke then takes the L and skips out on media. Pussy shit
Brooks is an r/nba mod
Imagine someone to be in their 40s and still being significantly better than you
Bron is rent free in that losers head. His life goal to be noticed by him, idk why. Maybe he wants revenge for 2023
Bron not reacting to these shoves is so funny. He’s 40 and not bothered and moving on. That’s gotta hurt way more than any reaction would have.
#AGED LIKE MILK
LeEnough
Oh he’s definitely bothered but I don’t blame him
Yeah…it’s Dillon Brooks.
People love his antics but dude straight up broke Gary Payton II’s elbow shoving him midair.
Yeah it’s like people forget he’s a giant piece of shit.
I hate this redemption arc narrative around him this year. Still a low IQ player doing dumb, borderline dangerous shit.
I also didn’t like when he would specifically go after Curry’s injured finger in the playoffs, like that could be career ending if things go badly
People love his antics
Who are these people? Are they in the room with us now?
the same people who used to love Morris twins
no they definitely exist. the amount of dumb comments praising this dude’s behavior is silly as fuck.
I’m fine with giving him praise for balling out and playing well. but giving him praise for shit like this is way too common, some people wanna watch a reality show instead of a sport
These “gritty” players just take advantage of the “they’re not gonna call it every time” mentality. Dude would foul out of most games by half time if it was officiated correctly. Always been this way so doubt we’ll see any change
All of OKC
Bears don’t get annoyed by flies, or something like that
Most players would feel the shove or at least move. Bron is a wall that Brooks can’t move. As for pushing with all his force it’s be expected out of the top 3 pussies in the league
Whats his age have to do with it?
What, you don’t have a problem with a 300-lb NBA tank shoving a 73-year-old Lebron??
Lol yea. If youre on the court age dont matter.
Imagine if this was 28 year old Lebron I can guarantee you Brooks is getting dunked on in this game. Lol
Yeah I get it’s LeBron James but this just seems weird because of his age lmao
Oh so now that’s the narrative, a 40 year old man? Lol
no that’s….. that’s just a fact about reality
What type of glazing bron is this?😭😭😭😭😭😭
lol Brooks wound up like he wanted to go flagrant, but Lebron barely stumbles
That old man strength too much, LeBron may be slow, but he’s a damn brick wall still
He’s slow compared to 2018 LeBron, but not 75% of the league.
What’s been with this trend of saying 2018 LeBron for talking about his physical prime? You’re like the 4th person I’ve seen do this in the last 2 weeks.
12-13 LeBron was clear as day his physical prime. It’s not even close. 2018 LeBron might be the best basketball version because he’d gotten more cerebral by then, but you’re specifically talking about his speed in your comment, LeBron was turning 34 and definitely not the same athlete as at 26-30.
Actually his physical peak was 2009. The shit he was doing then boggles the mind
I prefer 1972 LeBron, I think that was clearly his prime.
https://i.imgur.com/upFpIkQ.gif
Logan Paul’s beverage is Prime
You’re talking about that time he jumped to grab an alley oop that was way off aren’t you?
I think it really depends on what we’re looking for. That’s certainly around the peak for raw speed and quickness. But then he got absurdly strong and big while still maintaining a lot of that in Miami.
LeBron mentioned in his podcast that he considers 2018 to be his peak so that’s why people keep repeating it I guess
Peak of everything as a basketball player not necessarily athletically or strength wise, he elaborates on this and explains. People sound like the only listened to the sound bite.
He didn’t say peak physically
Well I mean , in terms of speed 09’ would be his prime. He was much bulkier and stronger in 12-13 though.
Athletic peak 2009, physical peak 2013, basketball peak 2018, decline started after that asshole Solomon Hill just dove at his leg in 2021.
Oh did I specify that 2018 LeBron was the fastest? “It’s not even close” doesn’t clear here either.
“he’s slow compared to 2018 LeBron”. Well 2018 LeBron is slow compared to 2012 LeBron. Just feels like a weird year to pick, but someone else said LeBron said he thinks thats his best year so I think that’s where all these 2018 LeBron comments are coming from.
I just picked a peak year for him. I didn’t google his baseline to baseline times year to year. I don’t get paid to do this bro, I scroll Reddit on lunch break and when I get home from work. G damn!
Now I need a ranking of all yearly Lebrons’ speeds.
Why not 2023?
Where did he say physical prime?
I mean there statement isn’t wrong. He’s slow compared to 2018 LeBron.
Everyone is slow compared to 2009-2013 LeBron.
That still does not make the statement that he’s slow compared to 2018 Lebron wrong though
We’re talking LeBron seasons like wine vintages.
Dude might be 40 whatever but he’s still like 240+ with under 15% body fat.
Isn’t he 270+?
He’s not Zion
Isnt lebron actually just also bigger than brooks? In addition to being stronger
I’m just so tired of Brooks. Maybe even more than Green.
I feel like people like brooks and green will inevitably get themselves kicked out of the league or in legal trouble for domestic violence. They both strike me as bullies of the worst kind
Brooks just craves attention, I don’t think he’s a bully outside of the “ring”. Feels like an act to become someone relevant.
I feel like Draymond was just tryna kick people, whereas Brooks is legit trying to injure people. Draymond is an ass but Brooks is lowkey evil.
[deleted]
Ref just standing there too lol
He has 5 fouls 2 mins in the game ? Damn!
Update: Lebron shoulder checked him later in the game🤣
LeBidingHisTimeBeforeRetaliating
LeBestServedCold
LeBronAroundAndFindOut
LeGetTheLastLaugh
LeCerebralAssassin
LeTripleH
Update: he was, in fact, NOT unbothered lol
LeBron got a tech and was actually really handsy with the ref too. Lol
Handsy might be putting it mildly. He almost mangled that ref lmao
The look on that ref was great. He was like if ANYONE ELSE did this their ass be tossed instantly.
“I’m going to cut you some slack right now because you’re Lebron James”
Clip on this?
New update needed
Update: Suns down 18 in the 4th
Should have turned it off then
Update: LeBron punched him in the stomach and Dillon got ejected for reacting to it. Lol.
Lebron is pushing him to start the clip. Let’s not pretend like this isn’t a 2 way beef.
I love Dillon staring at LeBron after that last shove. It’s like he’s saying “please acknowledge me” and LeBron just ignores his goofy ass lmao
Notice me senpai energy lol
That didn’t last long
The refs really let Brooks get away with so much, that mfer is playing football out there
Terrible reffing all around. Dillon Brooks was playing like a LB towards Lebron and then Lebron manhandles the refs and stays in the game.
Yea brooks is way more a menace that draymond, in my opinion, yet dray gets way more hate on this sub. Also amen thompson does some dirty work too.
He’s Canadian, so hockey
Suns fans spent the whole game saying refs gave Lakers free throws for breathing on lebron.
Guess that’s how Brooks breathes?
Yeah this whole game was super physical and anyone who watched more than the last minute would have realized it lol
expecting people in r/nba to actually watch games instead of looking at the boxscores lol
You could easily have found enough clips to foul Brooks out of the game about 4 times
Brooks has reached Draymond levels of unlikable, and he doesn’t even have a resume to back up the buffoonery.
He’s the Dennis Schroeder of Draymonds
Idk, Schroeder has that one move.
Hey Schroeder is a future HOFer and a great backup PG, leave him out of this
Incredible analogy
He’s worst than Draymond, he’s out there purposefully trying to injure other teams star players every night. Draymond just loses his temper and does stupid shit, his actions aren’t calculated to cause injury like Brooks does.
Draymond does both. He loses his temper and responds with violence, but he also has plenty of premeditated, calculated dirty actions with intent to cause injury.
Every team he plays on improves, so there is that
He is good at basketball, and actually might’ve taken a leap this year. That makes it even more annoying lol. The antics outweigh the upside for me. See last night: hits huge 3 to go up 1 with 10 seconds left or whatever, immediately gets a 2nd dumbass tech and gets ejected, effectively losing the game for the suns. Absolute Draymond acolyte
Dillon Brooks is a bitch. Fucker is just starving for attention. lol
A worm with braids
Meanwhile everyone is bitching in the thread where he gets a ejected
For real. Everybody is acting like Brooks wasn’t doing this type of behavior all game
Dillon was superb last game against us but he is really hurting them this game with the stupid fouls.
He’s got to be the most annoying player in the league. Nothing about him is likable
Lol the “LeBron is not bothered” comments aged like milk
I’d say it did.
Brooks is such a clown.
Well this hasn’t aged well
I’m curious how you now feel it aged.
these people like Stephen A Smith and Brooks that use Lebrons popularity to boost their own are so pathetic
“Unbothered”
Lol that didnt age well
This aged well…
Just saw a clip of lebron losing it lmao. Whatever brooks is doing.. its working
Easily the biggest piece of shit in the league
Silver has to do something about his product…it’s hard to believe not one of the 3 refs saw brooks?..it’s a caricature of what it used to be, brooks and Draymond are posing as bruisers which is easy in today’s NBA yet it comes off as trite.
Unbothered, eventually bothered, doesn’t matter because Dillon is obsessed with Lebron lol
Yes he has a hard on for LeBron
So this js where it’s started lol
I blame the ref for making these matters out of control 🤷
I’m more annoyed the refs didn’t call a foul right there.
This aged poorly lol
He want Bron’s approval so badly
This post aged badly
he should have been ejected earlier than he was lol
No shit
Man, I can’t stand players like this. You’re just making it completely obvious that you shouldn’t even be in the same gym as these other skilled professionals.
Bro no wonder Lebron lost his cool later in the game.
This isn’t just a foul on Brooks, it’s a textbook flagrant foul. By definition, fully unnecessary contact.
This is elder abuse
Wasn’t unbothered for long
No wonder LeBron wanted some later
Brooks a hoe
Bro wants to be dreymond so bad is sad
He got pretty bothered later on
LeGallop James
How the fuck do multiple refs miss that?
They see the lightest ticky-tack touch but miss these intentional NFL tackles from Dillon?
Would’ve been crazy to see LeBron fold him lol
Surprised he didn’t get thrown out earlier
If you like guys that play ball like this I guarantee everyone is pissed when you show up to pick-up games. This is the defensive version of being a foul baiter
He is playing the man not even ball oriented
At least Lance Stevenson was funny.
This was early in the 1st quarter mind you
Lmao thats actually funny
Brooks has been doing this to LeBron for years.
Elder abuse
I respect Brooks for not giving up the villain persona, he’s most consistent than SGA at this point
He’s a bitch
I don’t know what Brooks deal is but he’s been going after Lebron like this for years. It’s like he’s trying to get him to acknowledge him, but bron can’t be bothered. It’s dumb because Brooks has kind of taken himself out of these game because of his antics.
It gets to a point where you have to wonder why he has such a huge obsession. Think of lance, draymond, pierce, Noah. None of them had a fixation for lebron like this. There has to be a deeper reason
He’s a huge LeBron fan. His old tweets indicate he thinks LeBron is the goat, I really think he just gets super hyped for these ganes
He got a hard on for LeBron
Brooks trying so hard to make him budge 😂😂😂
Would love to watch LeBron fight him. Let angry bron come out, he’s always smiling being nice lately
I like Brooks, lol but he wants to be LeBron so bad. Just give it a rest and play ball.
He doing too much. He 40 for Christ sake 😥. Chill tf out…he been roasted your ass for years smh
Spoiler: it worked
Spoiler it didn’t
Jordan would have def knocked him out
what happened to the game I love?
That’s elder abuse
Instead of the post, does anyone else’s videos keep playing this stupid interview video with Max Kellerman? I haven’t seen an r/nba post in like a week because of this…
Its giving dillon brooks is dogass
I didn’t understand?!
Brooks is bad for the NBA
Hear me out. Brooks, Bane, and Green 1v1v1
Lmao Mighty Mouse over here
This is why I don’t care about the bad call on the 3. Yes LeBron did foul brooks. But if you watched this game from start to finish you would see that Brooks fouled out of this game about 4 times
I feel like when Lebron is grabbing and shoving a ref for getting between him and Brooks, you lose the power to say “unbothered”
Is anybody else’s page bugging? I keep seeing the same clip on r/nba but a different title every time. Not sure what that is happening
YES. Holy shit I thought there was some meme format in the subreddit I had no idea about…
It’s driving me crazy… so is Reddit just broken for us 😂
I updated the app and it’s fine now
I mean he pretty successfully rage baited Bron last night, I don’t think I’ve ever seen Bron that triggered
Brooks thinks he’s Draymond. Regardless, he’s out of control.
Dude was pushing as strong as he could and still barely nudged Bron lol
I wouldn’t say he was unbothered
“Bron, I’m not scared of you. You’re not all that. Bron. Hey Bron. Bron. Look how strong I am. Bron.”
dillon bum sadly got his money. even hating on the guy is not enough. i need him to make a bad gamba bet
LeBron unbothered by Dillon Brooks
Lmao LeBron was definitely bothered by him when he raged grabbing the ref and got a tech
LeBron definitely got annoyed but brooks probably felt more of each bump, got ejected, and cost them the game.
It was Desmond Bane who said LeBron is a tank and he was his first NBA welcome to the league guy. Being that big, full of muscle and athletic is a prize. I’m baffled by how competitive he is at his age
Damn small monkey that brooks 😂
Did Brooks got a tech?
I mean that’s an assault lol
One of DB’s more glorious losses.
And in the Suns sub somehow they think LeBron got preferential treatment 🤣
