Dillon Brooks 18 Points Full Highlights (3/28/2018)

Now there are two Brookses on the Grizzlies: MarShon (Mar$wag) and Dillon (no nickname, but I still pronounce his name Dill-On, which is almost like a nickname). Which one is better? Well, Mar$wag has only played one game with the Grizzlies, and he scored 21 points. Dillon only scored 18 in this game, but has…

Dillon Brooks Career High 29 Points Full Highlights (3/7/2018)

Dillon Brooks balled exactly hard enough to give Grizzlies fans the full load, but not so hard as to accidentally cost Memphis the loss. Perfect! Even fanbases of tanking teams want to feel like they have some young talent that is build-aroundable. Brooks is that talent! He is the “young core”. Other members of the…

Dillon Brooks 21 Points Full Highlights (3/5/2018)

Dillon “Chubby Tyus Jones From Canada” Brooks has a front-row seat to one of the greatest spectacles of the modern NBA: the magnificent tankjob of the Memphis Grizzlies. Heck, not even a front-row seat; he’s part of the act! What a privilege! Tonight, their performance reached a peak as they played something named Xavier Rathan-Mayes…

Dillon Brooks 22 Points Full Highlights (1/19/2018)

I was going to make a description comparing various Grizzlies players to characters from Game of Thrones, but then I ran into a serious and insurmountable problem: I’ve never watched Game of Thrones and only know a smattering of plot details. A “smattering” meaning “none”. Dammit! I don’t know how some people can consume both…

Dillon Brooks 17 Points Full Highlights (1/17/2018)

Dillon Brooks is the current leader of the SRRWIPMAE award, or the Second-Round Rookie Who Is Producing Most Above Expectations award. Out of all the second-round rookies this year, he is the only to have played 1000 minutes. Jordan Bell might be better impact-wise, but he doesn’t count, because all he has to do is…

Dillon Brooks 19 Points Full Highlights (1/15/2018)

With this 19-point performance, Dillon Brooks has officially avoided the dreaded “MCW-itis” the disorder where you peak in your first NBA game and everything goes downhill from there. Brooks’ 19-point and a bunch of other stats performance in his debut caught me totally off guard, but was quickly revealed to be an aberration of the…

Dillon Brooks 14 Points Full Highlights (12/16/2017)

Dillon Brooks was a second-round pick who came in and did enough of the right things that he’s been awarded the starting shooting guard job (unless Tyreke Evans is the SG, in which case Brooks has been awarded the starting small forward job). That’s the good news. The bad news is that there are few…

Dillon Brooks 19 Points Full Highlights (11/13/2017)

If the Memphis Grizzlies had won this game and had Dillon Brooks been the reason for that win, I would’ve been majorly peeved. Peeved to the greatest extent. Brooks is a good rookie, nice all-around player, but if he had been the preeminent factor in a win over Milwaukee, well, that would suck because he’s…

Dillon Brooks 13 Points Full Highlights (11/5/2017)

Dillon Brooks has screwed me up in two different ways. FIRST WAY HE SCREWED ME UP: I keep pronouncing Dillon as “Dill On” in my head even though it’s pronounced like Dylan (“Dill An”). SECOND WAY HE SCREWED ME UP: He scored nineteen in his NBA debut, throwing out of whack my proprietary algorithms for…

Dillon Brooks 19 Points Grizzlies Debut Full Highlights (10/18/2017)

Alright, here’s the deal: I am pretty good at keeping track of the dudes currently playing in the NBA. I have to be. It’s part of my job description. And, as I said, I’m pretty damn good at it. No player escapes my watchful gaze undetected. No player except for Dillon Brooks. Did he even…
