More on this storyline

Jon Krawczynski: Anthony Edwards: “Everybody know how Dillon Brooks is, man. He play dirty. He’s a competitor. I love the competing part, but all the little slick little dirty shit …” Edwards said Brooks hit him in the face and he fell, and Brooks said “How much crying you gonna do?” Edwards: “We can compete all day. We can talk shit all day. But when you get to doing that, it’s more than basketball at that point.” -via x.com / February 7, 2025
Dillon Brooks to Amen Thompson: “I appreciate you getting my first win in this mf’ing building.” -via reddit / January 28, 2025
Jared Weiss: Dillon Brooks on going against Kristaps Porzingis: “I like playing against bigs. They’re slow.” -via Bluesky / January 28, 2025
David Hardisty: Jalen Green has not missed a game since Ime Udoka has been coach of the Rockets. Udoka praised Jalen for his ability to play through injuries. “Some guys sit out with certain things, pain, stiffness, and Jalen is not one of them. He’s played through everything.” pic.x.com/o6ZylLA49V -via Twitter @clutchfans / February 9, 2025

The second game in TNT’s Thursday night NBA doubleheader featured the Houston Rockets against the Memphis Grizzlies. Memphis, though was shorthanded, which was news to Shaquille O’Neal on Inside the NBA. Discussing the game, O’Neal said that he was “looking forward to the Ja Morant-Jalen Green matchup,” but soon found out that he wouldn’t get to see those two share the court. “Well, Ja Morant’s out tonight,” host Ernie Johnson replied. “OK, so Ja Morant’s out. So forget that,” O’Neal said, as everyone else at the desk began to laugh. -via Awful Announcing / January 31, 2025
