Dillon Brooks, speaking after practice today, said he thinks the perception of him influenced the flagrant 2 call in Game 3. “The media making me a villain, the fans making me a villain, that just creates another persona on me.”

DB forcing himself into this persona then backpedaling and saying the media/fans influenced this perception is odd
Oh come on Dillon. He does it to himself by talking so much shit and then playing like absolute shit.
Please just stop talking for a bit DB.
Dude calls Lebron no big deal then is surprised when people don’t like him…..
A tragedy of his own creation.
I don’t think he understands that he has to choose what he is.
He can be a villain lockdown defender. But that means being Draymond and averaging 8 ppg. Draymond isn’t going 2-13 in the first last night. Neither is pat Bev, etc.
He thinks he’s Kobe where he can guard LeBron then drop 45 on the other end. Like 3 dudes ever have been able to do that. He ain’t that guy.
That had nothing to do with it. There is no way he wasn’t getting a flagrant 2 after nba just gave one to harden for the exact same thing. And Harden’s wasn’t as bad.
You shouldn’t have been talking shit(in a katt Williams voice)
Bruh
Whatever, literally all of this is perfectly fine except him jacking up so many bricks.
Talk shit to one of the Goats that’s literally almost averaging 30 points still in year 20. Calls him old and says it would have been a challenge to guard the younger Lebron.
Shoots horribly while your team is getting blown out.
Does the defensive version of something that just got a star player(harden) ejected.
Have an attitude and won’t talk to the media after the game
Then proceeds to say that it’s the media and the fans fault for being labeled a villain.
Wow
Absolutely right.
Lebron flopped hard, as he has a right to, and the refs fell for it.
Never thought I’d see him backpedal
He needs to come off the bench next game
MAGA origin story
Don’t back away now dude… you asked for this… don’t back track now bro….
I’m not going to talk about how I completely disagree with everything he said. The main takeaway is he is aware his comments had negative consequences. Hopefully he learned from it. You can’t talk shit if you can’t back it up, and after the most recent game he shouldn’t talk shit until he puts numbers on the board. Focus on the game. Get past this series. Focus on the next one. Repeat until championship.
Bro is a clown.
Can’t wait until his contract is up at this point
I think he wanted out of the game. That’s how I took it in real time.
That cat needs to go. More trouble than he is worth.
I might shit an actual brick if we re-sign him this year.
