LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers took care of business against the Memphis Grizzlies in game-6 and advanced to the next round. The Lakers were unstoppable at home and won the game 85-125. This was the first time since 2010 a 7th seed has eliminated a 2nd seed. The Grizzlies have been beefing with the Lakers for some time now. After game-2, Dillon Brooks had some interesting comments about James. But the 40-point loss in the elimination game has come back to bite him now.

The loss means the Grizzlies end another good regular season with nothing to show for it. After the game, NBA legend Isiah Thomas had some words for Brooks about the humiliating loss.

Isiah Thomas remembers Dillon Brooks’ comments on LeBron James

After the Grizzlies won game-2 and evened the series 1-1, Dillon Brooks stated that he does not care about LeBron James because he is old. He also said that he does not respect a player until they score 40 against him and added that he likes to “poke bears” – and it has not ended well for Brooks and the Grizzlies.

Even though the four-time NBA champion did not score 40 in any game during the series, he has been a major reason behind the Lakers’ success. Brooks has hence become a target for trolls after the elimination and losing a playoff game by 40 points.

Interestingly, Hall of Famer Isiah Thomas joined in on the act as well. The Detroit Pistons legend joined Playoff Central Live as an analyst. As the host stated that this was the first time a 7th seed has eliminated a 2nd seed since 2010, Thomas did not hold back. He said, “Didn’t my man say, ‘I don’t respect nobody until you give me 40.’?”

The two-time NBA champion and his co-hosts could not control their laughter as he said this. He added, “It is like, ‘Bam! You asked for the 40, here’s the 40!'”

The 40-point win was also James’ largest series-clinching win ever.

Fans trolled Dillon Brooks after the loss

A lot of NBA fans joined Isiah Thomas and roasted Dillon Brooks, Ja Morant, and the Grizzlies after the poor loss. As the video clip of Thomas’ comments went viral on social media, fans flooded the comments to give their take. Here are some reactions:
