Well, it turns out the Grizzlies weren’t fine in the Western Conference.
After months of talking trash, the Grizzlies were dismantled by the Lakers in the first round of the playoffs. On Friday night, they lost by a whopping 40 points.
Grizzlies swingman Dillon Brooks dealt with a lot of criticism this series for his harsh comments about LeBron James. Instead of facing the music, he left the locker room without speaking to the media.
Sports fans around the world called out Brooks for this lame move.
The weakest of weak *%%#. Talks the talk but can’t walk the walk. And then won’t face the music. He’ll cheap shot a guy in the groin, he’ll insult LeBron but when he gets blown out by 40 in an elimination game as a 2 seed? He runs scared. Embarrassing. https://t.co/qlAK0ITvMl

“The levels of cowardly don’t even register,” one person said.

Another person tweeted, “Scared to death, he’s scared to look, he’s shook. Ain’t no postgame media availability for Dillon Brooks.”

“Loser. You can’t respect this. Said he wanted to see the Lakers before round one to knock LeBron out. Said he was old and didn’t respect anybody until they gave him 40. Can’t even answer questions and face the heat. Front runner,” a third person added.

Following the Grizzlies’ win over the Lakers in Game 2, Brooks referred to James as “old.”
“I don’t care,” Brooks said. “He’s old. … I poke bears. I don’t respect no one till they come and give me 40.”
Suffice to say, that turned out to be a foolish move.
Brooks is set to be an unrestricted free agent this offseason. It’s possible he just played his last game for the Grizzlies.
