The Grizzlies’ season ended on Friday night as the Lakers blew them out 125–85 in Game 6. The loss also ended Dillon Brooks’s time as a postseason villain for now, as he couldn’t back up all the trash he talked before the series.
While Brooks was willing to verbally attack the Lakers, mainly LeBron James, once Memphis started to lose, he got quiet. After Memphis lost each game in Los Angeles, Brooks declined to speak to the media, something he did again on Friday night.
Members of the media have criticized Brooks for not facing the music after losses, and Shannon Sharpe is the latest to chime in. Sharpe, a noted LeBron James fan, took to Twitter to question where Brooks was after the game.
