It didn’t take long for the battle between LeBron James and Dillon Brooks to heat up on Wednesday night. During the first quarter of the Lakers-Rockets clash, James showcased his physicality by backing Brooks down to the basket with some old-school, 90’s style post moves.
Brooks was playing good defense on James, but he was no match for the strength of Los Angeles’s superstar, who bullied him all the way to the rim.
Even at age 38, James remains one of the toughest matchups an NBA defender can draw, though Brooks was handling the assignment well early on.
