While on a Twitch stream with a popular streamer’s agent, Dillon Brooks admitted that he more willing to talk trash 41-year-old veteran than he would have been five years ago. Brooks claims it would be a different story if it was the Miami Heat version of James. However, age seems to be a factor when it comes to trash-talking James.
“If it was LeBron five years ago, then it would have been different,” Brooks said. “Miami Bronn, you don’t talk nonsense to him, because he has more game to him, more agile. Right now he is like old.”
