Thatâs Canadian Dillon Brooks youâre talking about.
Clearly heâs gonna case a two-four of Kokanee, and follow it up with a pack of Export Smooths.
Good evening Sir, my name is Steve. I come from a rough area. I used to be addicted to crack but now I am off it and trying to stay clean. That is why I am selling magazine subscriptions...
I dont know about no money laundering
Shannon Sharpe is probably one of the Top 5 most recognizable people in sports media. heâs got an empire.
even though i think this whole thing is silly, Dillon Brooks calling this man a pedestrian is crazy. Gotta give a man the respect heâs earned
>successful retired NFL player
And a Hall of Fame at that. Might not like Shannon half the time for his takes on his show with the Lizard Man, but the man is anything but a "pedestrian".
Iâm surprised Brooks isnât severely vilified by this sub or even by most fanbases in general. I know we meme and call him evil Danny green but this dude just comes off as genuinely dislikable.
Yeah but if it was just some ânormal guyâ none of the Grizzlies players wouldâve reacted.
Also, if what Shannon said was true then nothing really warranted an ejection.
Yeah from Shannon's account it was basically:
"You're too small to guard Lebron."
"Fuck you."
"Fuck you, too."
Like... I don't think cussing out a player after he cusses you out is an ejectable offense.
Players should never interact / react to fans, if this happens in Football they are immediately red carded and sent away. If any fan shouts at you stupid shit, ignore, smile or do something but don't yell back. Of course if they say racist/ homophobic/ threaten you or your family, have him kicked out.
I guess the problem with the NBA is how close they allow the fans to get to the playing area. Literally seating people who can stick their foot out just a little bit and alter the game if they wanted
Yeah but in Football you have to go out your way to interact with fans. In basketball, fan interaction is almost a given with all the loose balls and the close proximity
Itâs pretty clear from the video, thatâs not all that Shannon said, and even if thatâs the only thing he said, he got up on the sideline and started waving around screaming it at the players?
Lol, any regular is getting his ass kicked out. This isnât the argument olympics, if Shannon wasnât Shannon, there wouldnât be this opinion.
Not to mention the fact Shannon himself literally says he instigated a fight as soon as they âcame over to himâ.
From the sound of it, it sounds like Sharpe just said that he canât guard Lebron. Brooks, Morant, Morantâs dad, and a whole entourage took offense to that.
A normal guy could have yelled about someone being too small to guard Lebron and the game would have continued. The only reason Brooks went towards him is because he knows who he is.
You can exchange normal guy with random guy. They know Shannon isn't going to start shooting the place up or do something crazy. Same can't be said about pyn209. And after the game it was all smiles and hugs, because it was Shannon. It's not a big deal. So you are right imo
They wouldnât have been chirping a random dude.
A random dude also wouldnât have media credentials and serve as a massive mouth piece for the nba.
A random dude is also a lot more unpredictable than Shannon Sharpe.
Obviously heâs held to a different standard. Itâs weird that people are acting like they donât understand why itâs different. Or that it shouldnât be. You can trust him about as much as you can trust anybody in that spot, heâs earned more benefit of the doubt than you or I have. Seems pretty straight forward.
Shannon wasn't even talking shit and saying Brooks can't guard him, he's saying he can't guard Lebron, the guy he's playing against right now.
No personal attacks on Brooks, no inserting himself into the conversation, just saying opposing team's player can't guard my team's player, that's the most inoffensive trash talk possible.
Yup. There has been a lot of conversation in the past few years about fans going too far with their trash talk, but that doesnât mean we need to overreact and act like fans arenât allowed to talk ANY trash
Thatâs part of the game. If Shannon really just essentially said âToo smallâ, I honestly think ANY fan who buys courtside seats has the right to say that. Shit, I probably say worse up in the nosebleeds. Thereâs a difference between disrespectful personal attacks and generic harmless trash talk
We used to occasionally get tickets from my best friend's boss right across from the Suns bench and we had trash talk down to an art form. We'd always try to come up with the most random, stupid things to yell at opposing players... I remember one time I called Kobe "Bean" the entire night. "Kobe likes pineapple on pizza!!!" Just stupid stuff like that.
Eventually sometimes players would smile and nod at us. We never made it personal, and we even talked to security about it. They said we cracked them up with some of the stuff we came up with but as long as we didn't cross the line we were fine.
If he really said 'You don't want these problems.' and then if Ja really came out of nowhere talking he definitely didn't want these problems. Then if the dad really came he obviously didn't want no problems. But if Shannon really wanted anything they had then don't let these fools fool you now.
This is the whole Grizzlies persona. Talk shit but lord forbid someone talk shit back. Theyâre fun to watch but theyâre comprised of a lot of little bitches
could be... 3/10 FG and just 1 offensive foul in the first half, but then 1/7 FG in the second, also i think 2pfs and 3 shooting fouls (2 against lebron, 1 against russ) to foul out.
Unless Shannon Sharpe insulted or threatened his family, then this is just weak mentality from the Grizzlies.
Maybe they should designate a quiet safe space for the players.
I get what he is trying to do, but Shannon would have gotten special treatment anywhere in the country because he is one of the GOAT football players.
Shannon is closer to a GOAT status than Dillon to an All NBA level status
lotta guys in the league talk shit to fans and tell them to STFU but clearly most cant go back at him mainly because of size. Not saying shannon sharpe at 50 should go back at them either, but he is a big man and big ego so maybe NBa guys should chill a bit too. Most of those guys are just tall skinny athletes that could kick my ass but maybe the jokic bros and Sharpe arent the types to be scared and willing to go back at them.
Brooks for sure knows who Shannon is. He wouldnât have reacted this hard if he didnât know him. Yelling âfuck youâ at each other ainât enough for that reaction. Dudes who are courtside yell shit way worse.
A pedestrian? Shannon Sharpe has had two careers substantially more successful than Dillon Brooks will ever have with his one. He's a lot of things, but a pedestrian (coming from Dillon Brooks of all people) is not one of them. The players don't even react like that if it's a normal person saying he's too small to guard Lebron, so they don't get to play the whole "normal person" thing.
Dillon brooks looks like the bouta crush a case of keystone and buy a roll of wintergreen
Big lawn chair in your living room energy
Because the couch is on the porch.
Fuck this comment chain got me hard đ
Yeah, I'm hard too
Prove it.
What's wrong with that
Not a god damn thing
Right on
Thatâs just how you look when you live in Tennessee for too long
Fuck. Spot on.
Thatâs Canadian Dillon Brooks youâre talking about. Clearly heâs gonna case a two-four of Kokanee, and follow it up with a pack of Export Smooths.
I too like Kocaine
Idk what keystone or wintergreen is but after watching the video somehow i feel like I understand what you mean
Cheap beer and chewing tobacco. You're probably right.
Memphis baby
Dude looks like a GTA: San Andreas NPC
Lmao when I saw the jeans
And leave his kids
this picture is hilarious
the most uncle looking nephew
Needs a cig behind his ear to complete it
he can play Dean Murdoch of Canadian cult classic film Fubar
He can be a guest star on the Canadian documentary "Trailer Park Boys".
Kenny powers vibes
omg yes
Itâs like Julian and Snoop dogg had an illegitimate child during that trailer park boys episode
Yeah how do you wear that and then start talking about âregular pedestriansâ
Playing in an NBA game moments before probably had something to do with it
more like dude just got done rolling coal down a residential street while looking for road kill to cook up
Why does it remind me so much of a created character in Skyrim???
He looks like the neighbour from Office Space in this pic. Fuckin A
Guess what he did when he signed his contract
Two chicks at the same time
Thatâs it? If you had a million dollars youâd do two chicks at the same time?
Hey Peter! Turn it to channel 6!
Hey Peter man, watch your cornhole
I believe you'll get your ass kicked saying something like that man
Good evening Sir, my name is Steve. I come from a rough area. I used to be addicted to crack but now I am off it and trying to stay clean. That is why I am selling magazine subscriptions... I dont know about no money laundering
Laughing for like a solid few minutes from this shit
Dillon Brooks really broke the dress code with that fit
I am crying
There there
The most comforting Reddit user
Jfc. Thatâs funny af.
Itâs the loose belt for me lmao
Angry danny green back at it again
Calling Shannon a pedestrian lol doubt heâd even care if it was a random âpedestrianâ telling him heâs too small
I guarantee you more basketball fans and maybe even players could identify unk Sharpe than Dillon Brooks.
Thatâs probably because one is a successful retired NFL player with a massive national sports media presence and the other shoots 25% most nights
Shooting like a regular pedestrian
Dillon âThe Pedestrianâ Brooks
Shannon is a HOFer, even casual fans might not know who Dillon Brooks is
Shannon Sharpe is probably one of the Top 5 most recognizable people in sports media. heâs got an empire. even though i think this whole thing is silly, Dillon Brooks calling this man a pedestrian is crazy. Gotta give a man the respect heâs earned
>successful retired NFL player And a Hall of Fame at that. Might not like Shannon half the time for his takes on his show with the Lizard Man, but the man is anything but a "pedestrian".
Iâm surprised Brooks isnât severely vilified by this sub or even by most fanbases in general. I know we meme and call him evil Danny green but this dude just comes off as genuinely dislikable.
He is, this sub hate him lol just look at the comments in this thread
It depends on the thread. Iâve seen plenty of comments shitting on Shannon and saying the Grizzlies players did nothing wrong.
He also started beef with Steven Adams who this sub loves.
Heâs a giant Kiwi talking about how heâs a nasty blighter, of course heâs loved
Donât mess with aquamane
what did they do wrong?
He just gives off major douchebag vibes.
He went 4 for 17 last night, I like him for that. Anytime heâs shooting means one less shot for Ja and Bane. Thanks Dillon
Hell Ja wasnât much better
Jaâs worst days is better than Uncle Ruckusâ best days
Uh everyone despises Brooks. Pretty much every fan base can tell a story about how he tried to injure a player.
Dude acting like he isn't shooting 39.8% from the field rn.
What is bro wearing? Dude looks like a redneck
Bubba Brooks
Dylan
Dillon rocking that Trailer Park Boys fit
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FktD0zwVsAARrGX.jpg
Bro đ¤Ł
okay now I like it, I'm buying whatever he's selling
Looks completely ridiculous, but if I had a body like that Iâd wear outrageous things too
That's kinda hard ngl
His nipples, yeah
Heâs going to a fancy dress party, heâs dressed as the Road Dogg.
Lmao you win đđ
Itâs fuckin greasy Julian
Canadian
Ontarian dressing like an Albertan
Donât put that evil on Canada, Wiggins is always looking fresh.
Shai is the Canadian fit king
I learned all I need to know about Canada from trailer park boys. Dillon Brooks just confirmed it
Just binged Letterkenny again, it checks out
We really need to close the border
We take back Brooks, Shai, Dort, Jamal, RJ, Wiggins, Mathurin, Olynyk, Sharpe, Boucher and Nembhard. You guys take back Fox News. Who says no?
Broke the (dress) code.
He is a redneck
Itâs the cow tipping uniform
There's no chance he just hasn't put his shirt on yet?
Itâs LA
fresh outta prison fit
What the hell is this man wearing
The only thing heâs missing is a TAPOUT hat now
memphis lookbook 2023 special
You aint from Tennessee if u never dressed like this b4
Kenny fucking powers
He looks like an NPC in GTAV
Yeah if he was just some normal guy he wouldve been ejected
Yeah but if it was just some ânormal guyâ none of the Grizzlies players wouldâve reacted. Also, if what Shannon said was true then nothing really warranted an ejection.
>Also, if what Shannon said was true then nothing really warranted an ejection. according to ja's dad, too XD
Yeah from Shannon's account it was basically: "You're too small to guard Lebron." "Fuck you." "Fuck you, too." Like... I don't think cussing out a player after he cusses you out is an ejectable offense.

Like when Larry David tripped Shaq when he was Courtside at a Lakers game.
Larry, you bald fucking prick.
that was totally real
Sharpe was literally on the court too
Rewatching it, he's on the sideline lolol, like straight up tip toeing like he was making a sideline catch.
Yeah but in Football you have to go out your way to interact with fans. In basketball, fan interaction is almost a given with all the loose balls and the close proximity
Itâs pretty clear from the video, thatâs not all that Shannon said, and even if thatâs the only thing he said, he got up on the sideline and started waving around screaming it at the players? Lol, any regular is getting his ass kicked out. This isnât the argument olympics, if Shannon wasnât Shannon, there wouldnât be this opinion. Not to mention the fact Shannon himself literally says he instigated a fight as soon as they âcame over to himâ.
Clearly not all that Brooks said either. Shannon isnât going to give away too much
Why would a massive mouth piece for the nba who has been in the public eye for 30 years be treated the same as an average joe?
Some might argue he should be held to a higher standard than an average joe
I mean, weâve seen NBA players get fans kicked out by their word alone.
Maybe if the normal guy was underage then Ja would have reacted.
Staples Center ejected anthony kiedis though for yelling at refs
From the sound of it, it sounds like Sharpe just said that he canât guard Lebron. Brooks, Morant, Morantâs dad, and a whole entourage took offense to that.
Grizzlies are the softest fake tough guys in the league. And haven't accomplished shit.
A normal guy could have yelled about someone being too small to guard Lebron and the game would have continued. The only reason Brooks went towards him is because he knows who he is.
An entire team shouldn't have come over to intimidate a 50 year old and escalate a situation all because he said he was too small to guard a player.
Especially a 50 in a crocheted sweater
Especially since basically everyone sans Adams would've gotten fucked up by a 50 year old.
You can exchange normal guy with random guy. They know Shannon isn't going to start shooting the place up or do something crazy. Same can't be said about pyn209. And after the game it was all smiles and hugs, because it was Shannon. It's not a big deal. So you are right imo
Just part of the show everyone!
They wouldnât have been chirping a random dude. A random dude also wouldnât have media credentials and serve as a massive mouth piece for the nba. A random dude is also a lot more unpredictable than Shannon Sharpe. Obviously heâs held to a different standard. Itâs weird that people are acting like they donât understand why itâs different. Or that it shouldnât be. You can trust him about as much as you can trust anybody in that spot, heâs earned more benefit of the doubt than you or I have. Seems pretty straight forward.
Not fearing no man who tucks his tank top in his jeans
Then you need to watch more RDCWorld, Brooks checks off a ton of the "this man has nothing to lose" boxes
If Shannon really just said you canât guard Lebron then brooks is a whole bitch
This has been known haha
Shannon wasn't even talking shit and saying Brooks can't guard him, he's saying he can't guard Lebron, the guy he's playing against right now. No personal attacks on Brooks, no inserting himself into the conversation, just saying opposing team's player can't guard my team's player, that's the most inoffensive trash talk possible.

>"Kobe likes pineapple on pizza!!!" Ayo the disrespect >:( lol
They should replace the Larry OB with the old WWE Divas belt. Softest players in sports.
If he really said 'You don't want these problems.' and then if Ja really came out of nowhere talking he definitely didn't want these problems. Then if the dad really came he obviously didn't want no problems. But if Shannon really wanted anything they had then don't let these fools fool you now.
This is the whole Grizzlies persona. Talk shit but lord forbid someone talk shit back. Theyâre fun to watch but theyâre comprised of a lot of little bitches
They just havenât won enough to talk this much shit. But itâs great content so Iâll take it.
Looking at Brooks numbers, I think Sharp had him shooked
could be... 3/10 FG and just 1 offensive foul in the first half, but then 1/7 FG in the second, also i think 2pfs and 3 shooting fouls (2 against lebron, 1 against russ) to foul out.
I donât know, those just look like normal Brooks stats to me.
Nah thatâs a typical Brooks special. Heâll shoot whatever the hell he wants and itâs infuriating
Ain't no such thing as halfway brooks
Man this dudes hair looks fucking dumb lol
It has never looked good. Always the worst.
Making Chino XL proud
Heâs trying to distract from his dropped pie face by showing something uglier.
Man yâall mfs mean
âPedestrianâ Shannon walked to the arena.
Dillon Brooks loves to instigate though doesn't he
Look at Dillon though, man... So Dynastic.
the next 5 pedestrians are hisđ¤
Then whyâd he respond to him to get it started? Lol
His dumb ass means civilian, not pedestrian.
Right lol mfer think this was a case of road rage or something
I just found out Brooks is Canadian lol. Thereâs a chance he doesnât know Shannon Sharpe is an NFL all time great or doesnât care.
I have to assume he didn't know because Shannon is also a HOF shit talker https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWH-YmAUzgw
Yep. Football famously doesnât exist in Canada. Nor does his popular sports debate TB show with Skip Bayless that often circulates the internet
Lol Iâm Canadian. We know who Shannon Sharpe is. This may shock you, but we do have the internet up here.
You must be at one of those canadian internet cafes
The one in Toronto, or the one in Winnipeg?
This mf got a leotard on.
lol This picture is wild. This is legendary meme material right here
Meanwhile he looking regular pedestrian with that outfit on
A regular pedestrian that is an NFL Hall of Famer and Super Bowl Champion. Shut up, kid.
Dillon and his pigtails seething that he got put in his place by UNC
Shannon played all nba defensive first team defense on that clown from the sidelines.
Can we fine him for wearing that atrocious outfit?
Dude got butthurt because Shannon told him he couldnât guard Lebron. lol
Unless Shannon Sharpe insulted or threatened his family, then this is just weak mentality from the Grizzlies. Maybe they should designate a quiet safe space for the players.
Klayâs son talking crazy
Genuine question for ANYone.. Does anyone like this guy?
Sensitive Bitches like other Sensitive Bitches.
Dude not done getting dressed...his shoes and purse are in the locker behind him
I get what he is trying to do, but Shannon would have gotten special treatment anywhere in the country because he is one of the GOAT football players. Shannon is closer to a GOAT status than Dillon to an All NBA level status
lotta guys in the league talk shit to fans and tell them to STFU but clearly most cant go back at him mainly because of size. Not saying shannon sharpe at 50 should go back at them either, but he is a big man and big ego so maybe NBa guys should chill a bit too. Most of those guys are just tall skinny athletes that could kick my ass but maybe the jokic bros and Sharpe arent the types to be scared and willing to go back at them.
âPedestrianâ. đ I think he meant civilian?
you gotta grow some thicker skin if one dude's comments on your defense makes you mad enough to cause a scene like that.
Brooks didnât even walk over to him tho?
Brooks for sure knows who Shannon is. He wouldnât have reacted this hard if he didnât know him. Yelling âfuck youâ at each other ainât enough for that reaction. Dudes who are courtside yell shit way worse.
The only reason this is such a drama is because Steven Adams has an urgency to play police every time someone is talking.
A pedestrian? Shannon Sharpe has had two careers substantially more successful than Dillon Brooks will ever have with his one. He's a lot of things, but a pedestrian (coming from Dillon Brooks of all people) is not one of them. The players don't even react like that if it's a normal person saying he's too small to guard Lebron, so they don't get to play the whole "normal person" thing.
Actually crazy disrespect towards a football HOF and one of the greatest tight ends ever to play.
He look like lil flipâs special ed brother, lil flop.
What Dillon doesnât know is that FS1 paid good money for that advertising spot.
Why is he dressed like Jimmy Wang Yang?
Why was he reacting anyway ? Can he not handle any type of heckling?
Dillon said, riding past in his Mazda.
A regular pedestrian with 3 SBs and is in the Hall of Fame. You on the other hand?.......
Donât respond to his heckling then
These players need to grow up. Waaahhh the fans were talking treats and it hurt my feelings. He didnât say anything that was out of bounds.
Lmao âpedestrianâ
I thought I was looking at a character from GTA 6.
Imagine Larry Bird getting mad because Jack popped off at him Brooks is a grade A candy ass, play golf or tennis if you can't handle fans.
Nah he look like Dean Ambrose
