During Tuesday’s grind against the Memphis Grizzlies, LeBron James hit a fadeaway jumper over Dillon Brooks with about a minute left in the game.
James gave a five-point lead with 1:03 left and flexed on Dillon Brooks saying he’s too small to guard him. Skip Bayless, a known LeBron’s critique, did not waste time to call out the Lakers’ superstar.
Trash talking is part of the game for years and years as a way to get in your opponents’ mind. Obviously there is nothing wrong on what LeBron did against a team that put a great defensive performance against the reigning champions.
The Grizzlies fell to 2-5, after their loss to the Lakers, who remained at the top of the Western Conference. Memphis is facing many injuries with Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr. from the start of the season.
However, the Grizzlies kept Tuesday’s game close all night long and frustrated the Lakers with their defensive work.
