LeBron James and Dillon Brooks are officially going after each other tonight. There is no doubt about it. The Grizzlies star is at his unlikable best, and the Lakers star seems genuinely incensed. So, of course, things seem to be getting very much heated here. And as you’d expect, it’s been exactly what the fans have been asking for.

Earlier during this game, James hit a very tough shot right in Brooks’s face, shouting some words right in his face right after. However, at the time, the Memphis man shouted right back.
As you’d expect though, that isn’t quite enough to really retort in any type of way. No, to get yours back, you need to do something too, preferably right in the other guy’s face. And so, that’s exactly what Dillon Brooks did, much to the King’s chagrin. Let’s take a dive.
Dillon Brooks gets right in LeBron James’s face after sinking a three on him
Dillon Brooks has never quite been one of those people that shies away from the moment. And fortunately for him, that has not changed over the years.
So, when the arguable GOAT had his number, the man did not freak out. In fact, it doesn’t even seem like he much cared for it. Instead, all he did, was this. Take a look at the clip in the tweet below.

LeBron James can’t even look at him he is so disgusted. And somehow, if you’re a fan of the Memphis Grizzlies, there aren’t many things that could’ve made that moment better. But hey, it doesn’t end there. No, Brooks apparently wanted to do a lot more.

DILLON BROOKS FROM DEEP.

Memphis will now head to Los Angeles hoping to get a lead now. But something tells us it’s hardly going to be an easy goal after everything tonight. Watch this space.
