The Official NBA Season Thread: Free Agency Day

[Coupé It]

Dillon Brooks is a free agent. ****** acting like the ***** just got cut from the NBA or something

They weren’t going to sign him anyways.

Look at how many people are throwing a parade in here.

If Dillon Brooks took over your life THIS much….

He won the war.

Not you.

Post the scoring drop from regular season to playoffs

Didn’t EYE just say the raw numbers ain’t there lol there’s offense and defense to be played

 

[uncalled4boy]

Under any circumstances

He Just Gotta Make Shots Next Season Wherever He Is. It Would Alleviate Much Of The Noise.

 

[DripNick]

He was by far the biggest distraction

Thing is, he also their main attraction.

Who scheduled these playoffs?

Phoenix and Denver don't play until Friday after last might and LA-GSW goes every other day now

No denying this. Ja is box office. I’m cool with them never talking about JaSL as long as he’s keeping his head down.

But calling out Dillon brooks the day of the NBA civil war isn’t even necessary. Under no circumstances

They’ve played 2 games and La/gsw have yet to play. I kinda get it. Sucks for old man Lebron & curry/Dray/klay

 

[akajae]

I wonder if he changes his tune...

Under any circumstances

Dillon Brooks exhibited a lack of professionalism throughout the series, but this is poor form by the organization.

He’s a limited role player at the end of the day, and is paid as such. You face some adversity in a road elimination game & quit, that’s not on him.

Publicly ****ting on him is just ridiculous. On top of him being an actual useful player.

Could’ve kept this communication internal, & just worked out an S&T in the off-season.

Can’t wait to watch Dillon Brooks check in for the Lianing Flying Leopards while betting on CBA in the fanduel app

 

[dacomeup]

Jeeze. Seems like a rash decision tbh.

He’s the perfect scapegoat . If he’s killed his value then they def should take a look at bringing him back

Dillon had plenty occasions to step up to the task or ****. He only had a couple games where his playing intensity and decision making matched his big *** mouth. Under no circumstances should he be able to not suffer the consequences.

 

[addict4sneakers]

It’s crazy cause he would make way more money if he just shot all corner 3s this off season instead of being delusional about having way more game. They let him rock out and we saw the results

 

[amitt5504]

They say you need some level of delusion to be an nba player but this over the top lol

 

[pmatic]

Having Jayson Tatum's shot selection while being the least efficient offensive player in the league is indeed wild.

 

[lynchpin33]

Confirmed Lakers vs Warriors going 7

Will be interested in those numbers.

It's a parade inside my city yeah!

 

[ballinsam23]

That whole Memphis team did too much talking.

It wasn’t even just Brooks.

 

[dacomeup]

welp

I hope this settles it. Its not Dillon being a scapegoat, its just he's not a fit with this core anymore. He literally said the role change was tough on him and he can do more offensively. How you not even buying into the team concept to think you're ahead of a pecking order featuring Ja, Bane and Jaren?

The team leaked a story to the biggest national NBA reporter saying that both sides agree a fresh start is needed in an article about a role player . You don’t have to cape for these boys like this man

 

[Rootin4EverybodyBlack]

By what measure is Brooks an “elite” defender though? Just being good doesn’t really cut it when offensively you’re horrible

 

[had pants]

 

[dacomeup]

That whole frontline that dance when the Grizz come out the tunnel of Tyus Jones, Dillon Brooks and Kennedy Chandler will be off or already off this team

People still talking about Ja causing problems when the staff/front office spoke about him making the right steps in becoming a leader for this franchise since returning.

Them 10 days doing reiki must’ve been life changing for Ja then. From major distraction to leader that quick!
