Since retiring from football after a successful stint with the Pittsburgh SteelersAntonio Brown never learned to keep a low profile. While the attention is no longer on his prowess on the football field, he has turned his image as a controversial figure. From football stars to celebrities and basketball players, no one escapes being a victim of his brutal jabs.

D’Angelo Russell’s lamentable playoff history didn’t make Brown go easy, as the Lakers point guard lost five consecutive playoff games to Denver over two past seasons. As Russell and the Los Angeles Lakers prepare to face the Denver Nuggets in the playoffs, the 28-year-old NBA champion becomes the victim of Brown’s relentless trolls.

Antonio Brown disses D’Angelo Russell’s quote

D’Angelo Russell recently posted a strong message online: “The calmer you are, the clearer you think; move with strategy, not emotion. To this, Antonio Brown dug a grave for himself by responding with a meme featuring someone holding a microphone to an empty trash can with the caption, “Anything else?”

Brown’s controversial response is nothing new, given his constant trolls that garner him online attention. In his previous game against Denver in Game 1, Russell only scored 13 points, three rebounds, and three assists. Even in last season’s playoff against the Nuggets, he was benched in Game 4 of the series and averaged only 6.3 points, 2.0 rebounds, and 3.5 assists per game. Brown seems to be enjoying trolling this basketball guard, but Russell isn’t his only recent target for questioning.

Antonio Brown questions Tyreek Hill

The result was a mystery when Antonio Brown interviewed another controversial NFL star. Known as the Cheetah for his speed, Tyreek Hill seems to have applied that attitude even in the race to build a family. He recently appeared on an episode on Brown’s CTESPN podcast and mentioned that he has 10 boys. Even Brown was perplexed by the response and asked, “You got 10 kids?

Hill seemingly evaded the question and abstained from revealing his number of kids. This prompted Brown to turn to the camera to inquire if discussing children was a ruled-out condition. But Hill confirmed he has more “baby mamas, leaving fans in speculation. Undoubtedly, Brown will continue to blow the media world with his unconventional digs at famous figures. Do you think it’s good or bad for the world?
