The Lakers experienced a wave of major deals in the middle of the season, and the team's momentum was like a peng spreading its wings, soaring to 90,000 miles, winning and losing in the playoffs to finish seventh in the West, and facing Morant's young Grizzlies in the first round.
As the saying goes, food and grass come first, this phrase is also appropriate in the NBA playoffs, especially for teams with some tough guy players. As the Grizzlies' number one tough guy Dillon Brooks, he took the lead in shooting on social media, bluntly saying that he would give the Lakers players a physical fitness, and claimed that he would be late for three vicious offenses in this series, so that the Lakers players could prepare in advance and cry when the time came. Thompson, once James' knife-wielding guard, was signed in the final game of the Lakers' regular season, and the main task is also very clear.
It is for James and Thick Eyebrow to be the bodyguard, and he also claims that he will talk directly to the opposing tough guy players in the playoffs to protect James' health and prevent them from being harmed. After hearing Dillon Brooks' words, TT Thompson immediately stood up and responded, signing himself, the Lakers are to treat a player like Dillon, and warn Dillon to be honest on the court. As a result, Dillon did not dump Thompson at all, bluntly saying that Thompson's current value and basketball strength are not qualified to talk to him.
Because Thompson has not played for a long time, there is no way to find a new job, and the level of basketball strength has fallen very much, he should indeed thank James for letting the Lakers sign him and giving him a certain financial ability. So I understand what he said, but Thompson is a base-salary player, who can only get hundreds of thousands in the Lakers this season, but his annual salary exceeds 10 million.
Later, Dillon responded to TT Thompson even more strongly in the spray, believing that he was just a dog of James, and the purpose of playing was to hurt the players, but all the Grizzlies players will tell you with a tough body who is the final winner.
