Our guest this week is Trey Murphy of The New Orleans Pelicans. This is an AWESOME conversation and it took less than 10 minutes for Trey and JJ to give each other crap. In this clip, they talk about The Memphis Grizzlies vs. The Los Angeles Lakers and a deep conversation about Dillon Brooks and his antics against LeBron James and the art of being an NBA agitator.

Dubs v.s Lakers!!!
"Let's take the dirty plays out of it."
Thank you for distilling our problem with agitators into one sentence.
I mean Dillion Brooks has been solid the priors season averaging around 18 a game is pretty solid for the 3rd/4th option, I mean yeah he’s having a bad year this year shooting but come on he’s definitely not a bum like the media says, prolly the same people that was saying Russ is done and etc…
Fantasy pickup of the year.
Pat Bev doesn’t switch up, he says what he says and stands by it even if he loses. That’s why even if you don’t like him, you gotta respect him. Brooks is the opposite
draymond is spot on about memphis, and dillon specifically, being front runners. or at the very least his recent display hasn’t helped fight that narrative.
I like trash talk, saying it and receiving it, my only problem is when someone doesn’t have the self awareness to stop. Some people have no limits to what they’ll say, and once you pop him upside the head, now he’s the victim.
Someone told me they don’t watch the nba because it’s a soap opera for men.. I had to think about it but then I agreed and added, that’s why I watch it! It’s a sports opera!
Let's get it straight though, Rodman was an agitator, the rest of these guys are goons. Pat Bev-goon, Dillon Brooks-goon, going a ways back Bruce Bowen-goon, etc…😅
these particular guys aren't intelligent enough to think logically. They have poor emotional intelligence and act out of ego.
No problem with trash talking and being an agitator. My problem is how he talks tough but his actions say he’s a coward
It's time once again to remind the Jackals, the Hyenas who the Lion is.
Much like a lot of teams wanted to try to emulate the warriors and took the wrong lessons away from what they were doing (they just started jacking up three's and left out the defense and all the movement) Brooks feels like he wanted to be a new version of draymond but just took the trash talk part and then kinda didn't bother to look at the rest. Like was mention guys like pat bev and draymond are gonna show up win or lose and be accountable and aren't going to hide form him. Draymond is going to show up to the media after the game and literally have the stats up for the game and point out what kind of games the other teams guys had, give them their flowers and play wise what he did or didn't do.
There are dirty players, which is okay, and there are players which intentionally try to hurt players and that's what Dillon Brooks is. Purposely putting your feet under players as they are driving in the paint to the basket is just dangerous. Hooking someone's arm tightly right before they are about to jump up to the basket is dangerous. The more he got away wit the more dangerous he has become. When he fouled Lebron it finally put him on blast nationally for being a very dirty player and I have a feeling he got some words from the commissioners office that it was not going to be tolerated. Social media has been blasting Dillon as a dangerous dirty player for a while and when he fouled Lebron it made the commissioners office look bad because basketball fans, players and teams have been talking about this and the commissioners office has been turning a blind eye. Dillon can no longer play this way which is why some of his teammates are now doing it. This isn't the 80's and 90's. There's no room in the league for dangerous dirty players and a dirty team.
these storylines are not good for the game. i wanna watch pro ball, not a soap opera. also, plz get a stable table.
Can we name a "agitator" that can actually put the ball in the basket? It seems to me that all the agitators only play defense. I love defense, i LOVE the 90s-2010 basketball. That's my favorite. Just something i thought of.
Let’s go Lakers get this Game 5, just one more game. AD show up PLEASEEEE😭 dumbass darvin better let rui and reeves go off, and he better sub dennis in when d-lo is off.
I honestly think the grizzlies PR team is making him not do anymore interviews because the team feels like he’s being a detriment
Saying Dillon Brooks is not good enough to talk trash to LeBron is not complaining. It’s the same thing he’s doing. Trash talk.
glad to see nick young again
