[Highlight] Dillon Brooks Iso Scoring
Props to Brooks for working on his game.
Brooks used to be the main option at Oregon so I’d imagine he has some of his old tricks
I can only imagine very few people on r/nba watched this guy in college. He was an absolute hooper at Oregon, him and Lonzo Ball were the two best players in the pac 12.
I did. They were my sleeper times for March madness. Him, Pritchard, and there was another guy too. Didn’t think they’d be major players in the nba but I’m glad they proved me wrong.
Yeah he’s been doing this his whole career lmao, the whole hate train during the Lakers series was always hilarious to me, idiots genuinely saying he was gonna be gone to China
Yeah, he was known as a scorer in college. Props to him being a team player/winner willing to sacrifice and be a defensive specialist. Double props to him believing in himself so he can get these chances again
I just wanna see Brooks in the All-Star game cause that would be content. Bro has been hoopin.
He would certainly play real defense and for that he’d have my vote
And the trash talk. He’d bring an intensity back that the game has lacked for a long time
They should rescind a tech for every ten points he scores
Him and Naw should be the top candidates for MIP.
What about keyonte George?
Keyonte has been amazing this Utah and has definitely improved leaps and bounds
I would lean more on Brooks/NAW getting it imo because they represent what should be gauged for MIP (player making a jump not on a rookie contract) and both their teams are in the playoff picture as a bonus
Not to mention Jalen Johnson as well
Yeah 102%, NAW and Brooks are my MIP duo
Cough cough Deni. It’s not close.
Adam Silver approves this message.
I feel like deni made a half step to this level at the end of last year. Same thing with Duren, his defense improved at the end of last year and this year is offensive improvements
Deni will win it guaranteed
basically Jayson Tatum tbh
Less foul baiting
People forget Tatum shot 36%, all on iso midrange stepbacks, in his only final win
if u replace dillon brooks with tatum the celtics still win the finals in 2024. that team was so stupidly stacked and each series was over in 4 or 5 even if tatum just fucked around
With less corny somehow
That’s why you play defense. Lots of guys come into the league wanting to play like this but won’t and shouldn’t get the chance because they don’t guard at 200%. Defense got him on the floor and offense follows
Honestly, he looks just like I imagine 35 year old Ant.
lol, I thought he looked like a more washed/older/less polished Kawhi
Dillon “nononono-YES” Brooks
Annoyingly Dillon Brooks is having a fantastic season
Gotta respect it lmao
So much more valuable than just a defensive pest.
I’m starting to think Dillon Brooks may be the next Jimmy Butler. What I mean is a role player who is a defensive specialist that develops into a two way all-star
A lot are high difficulty shots but his jumper is nice
Makes you wonder how many players have a hidden bag, but never get the opportunity to show it
I’m mean, it’s ugly as fuck but it works.
Props to Brook, he’s annoying but he’s a player everyone wants on his team
He’s a hater but also made of the right stuff. I don’t know how to feel about the guy
As much as I don’t like the dude, you have to respect how much he’s worked on his game. He’s a very good player now.
On a side note, LOL TRAVEL @35s. Why bother having the rule if you can just take a few steps and then sidestep again to get open.
Who spent time on this?
Snubbed from being an All star by old ass lebron and a guy who’s pro genocide while being on a team 7 games back from the suns.
Brooks actually looks smooth as the primary scorer on most nights
That boy good
Can’t stand him buts definitely made a jump as a scorer
I knew the guy would be good when he was the only player to show up in game 6 vs the dubs back in 2022. The efficiency wasn’t there, but this is exactly what he did anytime he got the ball.
First highlight is a travel
Now do the ones from the Miami game where he was bricking contested fadeaways while Mark Williams had 6’5 pelle larsson posted up under the basket
Lakers need this man fr
he’ll finally open the closet of his Bronsexuality
He pretty much reverted back to the grizzlies version of himself, but now the shots are actually going in.
Reverted he is progressing dude
Reading comprehension my guy. Reverted as in his playstyle, not skill or stats wise.
Its not reverting ether way, he is actual expanding
Shit looks easy to guard lol
Why don’t they just guard him better? Are they stupid?
He’s trash that’s the gameplan treat him Draymond Green
Yet not a single player on the Lakers can currently.
Ain’t nobody worry about no damn Dillon Brooks we got Luka fuckn Doncic we can let that bum shoot all he wants and worry about Book a real threat.
Again, not a single player on the Lakers can still defend him despite him being this “bum” that you claim.
