But the North American press revealed that this ‘estrangement’ between the two comes from the past. According to ‘ESPN’, the Lakers star and the Grizzlies’ standout had already exchanged barbs in a confrontation in 2021, when the greatest scorer in NBA history managed a fadeaway jumper on the opponent and made the “too small” sign.

After Memphis’ victory, Brooks was unforgiving of his opponent and called him “old”.

“I don’t care, he’s old. Do you know what I mean? I was waiting for this. I expected him to do that Game 4, Game 5. He wanted to say something when I committed my fourth foul. He should have said this earlier. But I poke bears. I don’t respect nobody until they come and give me 40“, he stated.

Brooks still made it clear that no rival can even try to hit him head on and again made a warning to LeBron: “I said, ‘Oh, you finally want to talk?’ So we started talking. I just let him know that, ‘You can’t face me. You can not.’ You’ll see the video, it doesn’t really get me face-to-face until that moment. So when he was substituted he was tired. There I did my job“.

“I would like to see that (at the height of his career). It would have been a tougher task, but I’m playing with what I’ve got. Just wear and tear it over a seven game series and see if it holds up. See if he wants to play the one-on-one battle or if he wants to stand outside shooting the basketball“, finished.
