Another angle of John Collins grabbing Dillon Brooks by the throat in a pre season game.
And of course DB chose the funniest possible reaction.
I never seen JC lose his temper all six years in Atlanta. Whatever DB did or said must’ve been wild.
Reminds me of when mild mannered Andre Johnson snapped at Cortland Finnegan and whooped him on the field.
Still the greatest on-field fight in NFL history
Cortland Finnegan was a tough matchup.
Cortland Finnegan was a bitch. Andre was right to punch him.
Just rage baiting I’m sure, or probably calling his career over 😂
[deleted]
These two have both had similar careers and I think most people would argue Brooks has been more impactive on the teams he’s been on
JC just trying to fit in man. Bad Boys are back bby
It’s all fun and games until Dillon gets the ol Kermit Washington treatment.
He’s so quick to chill even here 😂 like he realizes it’s dumb 2 seconds in
You can see as soon as they break it up he’s shaking his head like, “yeah, you’re right, you’re right”
It’s cuz if he let it get real he knows he’d get knocked out.
Edit- thought you were talking about brooks
I think he saw DB laughing at him and realized it was more embarrassing than anything
He’s just a goofy rage baiter. Guys gotta start laughing at him. He wants you to get angry.
So you’re saying he’s good at it
Oh he’s a master at baiting for sure.
Clips fan here…I know I know. Came to say during his tenure with clips I’ve never seen him angry, dude is just chill. Must of been something pretty f’ed up DB said.
The DB factor is real, but also the Pistons have led the NBA in technical fouls since Bickerstaff arrived. Not just #1 averaged over those two years, but legitimately #1 for two years in a row. And Cleveland was #4 during Bickerstaff’s last year there. (Although Bickerstaff’s earlier years in Cleveland were fine.)
Well, Stew is gone so that should lower the number of techs this season.
Man i would have loved to see the Grizzlies with Dillon, Ja and Stew on the same team
what moving to Detroit does to a mf’er
(I say this as someone that really likes Detroit as a city but clearly there’s something in the water there)
Lead?
Thats a different city
If you’re gonna try and shit on a city at least get your facts straight. lol
Lake America is a nice lake if you ever go there
DB was swinging on him for like a minute I’m surprised it took so long for collins to go at him
Lol, “swinging on him”. He slapped at the ball several times unsuccessfully.
Uh huh. Missing the ball and hitting collins multiple times.
“What the fuck you doin man?”
Fuck you doin bro? Or fuck u doin man?
“The fuck you doin” lmao can literally read his lips
The greatest showman
He was probably like, only in the bedroom John
“fuck you doing bruh”
how can he choke
At that price point, he CAN choke
Oh he can!
How can she slap!
Yes, that was the reference 👏👏 🍪 for you
No. You go.
How can he slap chop?
“It’s just preseason!”
“I don’t care it’s pweeseason!!!”
“The fuck you doin’, man?”
Mid-season form for Dillon already
Gotta be one of the best baiters in the past 25 years
Watching dillon brooks baiting makes you realize there are levels to master baiters.
he’s definitely a master baiter
DB stays game-ready. His trolling has no offseason.
you posted it first. :)
DB only smiles when he’s in the middle of some bullshit I swear 😂
As a Grizzlies fan, I can confirm.
HoF instigator
“Why you little”!
Scrolled to far to find this comment lmao. 🤣
Brooks gotta be in the top 10 nba ragebaiters of all time
That Detroit grit got to JC already
Stewart’s fighting aura has made a new home inside John collins
Stewart is a clown. Lost all respect for him when the video dropped of him walking up to Drew Eubanks and sucker punching him in the tunnel before a game.
Eubanks ate that punch like some honey nut cheerios
Ya honestly that video just made Stewart look like a total bitch
For real, Eubanks’ tenure in Phoenix was a very weird time, but that clip made me respect him as a tough motherfucker.
That’s what did it? Not Stewart getting a multiple-game fighting suspension for 3 years in a row?
Yeah, fighting in a game is bad. But players are typically both getting involved, and emotions are high because they’re competitive pros. This was way different though.
He walked up and punched someone unprovoked who wasn’t looking.
Tf you mean both players are typically involved. Almost every interaction with Stewart is him getting irrationally angry and losing his temper against people not trying to fight him at all. He is just a hot head piece of shit.
Beef stew ain’t got no power either
The choke got perried within 1 second. Brooks won.
He was backpedaling the whole time lmao. Brooks wanted nothing to do with an actual fight
That’s the Dillon brooks- start shit, don’t finish it.
Tf you talking about backpedaling bro he was stepping up to a dude who had 30 pounds of lean mass on him, he’s probably gonna be the one out of the two of them to lose a little ground. But watch the replay he absolutely did not “backpedal”.
I’m not even a fan of Brooks but the way you’re trying so hard to make him seem like a bitch, is just bitch behavior.
All y’all lame asf for being so invested in some lame ass NBA preseason scrabble
Yeah he had a good grip on Collins’ arm too… if he was “backpedaling” to avoid the fight he wouldn’t be pulling the guy along with him.
He’s walking backwards basically from the 3 second mark onwards? Are you ok?
He stepped to him until he started getting pulled back by the refs and pushed by jc at 3 seconds. Check your eyes.
Where is the ref that’s pushing him back? Are they in the room with us right now?
must be the locker
[removed]
Hey John…we didn’t recognize your game. Welcome home.
I was a big fan of how Collins played on that Hawks team that made the conference finals and exposed Ben Simmons. Sadly, injuries and whatnot, just never had him stay at that level or meaningfully improve.
Man take care of JC
In his early years he was legit my favourite player.
Walking 20⁄10 on 50/40/80 with solid defense. Then he fucked his fingers.
Hope he can return to that level with y’all.
What the hell is in Detroit’s water? This dude just got there.
if you fucking losers are gonna keep making these jokes at least get the city right
That’s Flint
The water is from hell
Brooks told him Denny’s is better than Waffle House
Man I wish I knew the shit he says because it really gets under this era of ball players skins and all these dudes have done some media training
“John Collins? More like John Schmollins…”
Got em!
No one likes a bitch! The response has been damn near universal!
Looks like he’s gonna fit right in
The new cut is a good look for Dillon
I didn’t even recognize him, it somehow changed his face as well.
Collins was telling him about the Uber drivers
In a preseason game is insane work
Damn when did he cut his hair? The braids were iconic
When he got a court date
Even puff daddy wears a suit to court
If John the Baptist is choking you out, you said some real outta pocket shit
As much as we hate brooks. Idt we have seen anyone better at getting under other players skin
Hmm. Rodman was my GOAT ragebaiter. Has Dillon matched or even exceeded that level of trolling now?
Also Bill Laimbeer.
I think hes up there with them and will only get better at it. League doesnt let too much go anymore so hes working within those limits and doing great at it
damn we saying idt instead of I don’t think now. That’s a first
That has been used in texting since the days of blackberry. You must be young af
Literally the first time I’ve seen this and I spend a LOT of time online
Same no one says that
Not sure what to tell you but it has been around in texting since the blackberry days lol. Theres entries on urban dictionary for it since 2004. Was definitely used since in myspace days too
I’ve been texting for over 20 years and have never seen that.
Again theres proof its been around. The world is big and wide
Blackberry?! You old as hell
Lmao told you😂😂. Im from the myspace days
What’s this we shit. I find him absolutely hilarious. And dudes been balling it sucked he got injured last season.
I’m ready to see them gel and try to do something. Injuries killed them last season.
He’s everything Pat Bev thinks he is, and aspires to be.
Everyone hates Dillon until he plays for your team
My current favorite player and idgaf.
He plays dirty and has intentionally injured players. Says a lot about you
Yeah. He’s a great interview. I wish he was a Blazer.
I said nothing about his talent lol. I think hes a great player but hes definitely hated by the majority
Yea he is I didn’t like him at first because narratives but dude just be out here with an s tier rage bait rank. It’s good for the game.
Rodman
I love Dillon. Collins was unhinged here.
There’s another post with a longer clip. This was instigated by Brooks hitting with both of his arms after Collins beat him to a reboundedit: missed a word
Thanks for the context. But there was zero chance this wasn’t instigated by Brooks!
Welcome to Detroit brother
Bad Boys forever
Basketball really should take some notes from hockey tbh
I didn’t watch the game. I have no idea what happened, or what led to this.
And I do know that Brooks deserved it.
My first reaction was “what did Brooks do to deserve this?’
Knowing nothing else, it’s probably justified
Dillon is so lovable though.
“Fuck you doin” 😂
DB was like “I’m not your DVed girlfriend”.
lol DB like 😂relax
Honestly the NBA is better when the Pistons are fighting guys. And Dillon Brooks face is a human punching bag, so, this is lovely
“Harder daddy”
Had no idea Luke Walton was an assistant coach for Detroit
Chokes a guy in a preseason game on TV. Imagine what happens in private when he gets mad.
We don’t have to imagine.
Fuck happened to DB hair
This season is abt to be sooo lit
The NBA is so back!
I feel like I am the only one who saw Dillon hit Collins in the face before this.
Remember ladies, if ur boyfriend chokes you, it is a 70% chance he will kill you too.
It’s preseason…
The great antagonizer
Pistons gonna piston
And the supersonics don’t exist
They will soon raise from the ashes like a beautiful Phoenix!
Dude ball punches are supposed to be off limits 😭😭
lol show the whole thing that started it OP. It’s dumb that JC got punished when Brooks was instigating the whole thing. What Brooks was doing earlier would get anyone to react like this. He’s lucky the refs were blind.
He choked Brooks
What an ironic thing for a Wolves fan to say.
I’m failing to see the irony please enlighten me
Something something Wemby was justified in elbowing Naz Reid because the TWO Wolves players were fouling the fuck out of him immediately prior.
“Wemby elbowed Naz in the throat but it’s not his fault because the Wolves were fouling him all game.”
It’s objectively ironic.
Also, no one should ever grab someone else’s throat. It’s fucked up.
That’s not what irony is btw. More like hypocrisy.
Unless you have a reason to believe some random Wolves fan wouldn’t/shouldn’t hold a double standard.
“Fuck you doin’ man???”
Yeah that seems about the appropriate level of response lol
Im here for it!
Well, at least no one can say preseason is boring!
It’s that brick cheese they use in the pizza.
Someone tell these guys it’s preseason and to save it
Dillon the Villain
Homer Simpson ahh
