"Draymond talks a lot, gets away with a lot" - Dillon Brooks attacks Draymond Green, sparks hilarious reactions as fans call him Reverse Flash of NBA

Memphis Grizzlies v Golden State Warriors - Game Four
Dillon Brooks attacks Draymond Green

Dillon Brooks is known for being an agitator on the court, and now he's taking shots off the court as well. The Memphis Grizzlies forward recently had some choice words for someone on the team's biggest rival.

During a recent interview with Tim Keown of ESPN, Dillon Brooks gave his thoughts on Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green. He applauds his skill set but feels the former Defensive Player of the Year gets away with a lot during games.

"I don't like Draymond at all," he says. "I just don't like Golden State. I don't like anything to do with them. Draymond talks a lot, Gets away with a lot, too. His game is cool -- with Golden State -- but if you put him anywhere else, you're not going to know who Draymond is. He plays with heart, plays hard, knows the ins and outs of their defense. I guess that's why they like him over there."

The rivalry between Memphis and Golden State stems back to last year when the Warriors knocked the Grizzlies out of the playoffs. Both sides have continually taken shots at each since then. They squared off on national TV on Christmas Day, with the Warriors winning in convincing fashion.

Fans react to Dillon Brooks taking a shot at Draymond Green

Throughout NBA history, there have been countless players who have taken on the "enforcer" role for their team. Playing alongside two All-Stars in Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr., Dillon Brooks has taken up the mantle for the Memphis Grizzlies.

While Brooks sees himself as a tough guy, that perception is carried throughout the rest of the league. Most opponents see him more as a pest with his in-your-face style of defense.

Most fans also see Brooks in a similar light. Following his recent comments about Draymond Green, reactions are not what the Memphis Grizzlies wing might have hoped.

Some fans admitted they aren't big fans of Brooks, but did agree with his take on Green getting away with little things on the court.

Brooks added more fuel to the fire with his comments, and will soon have to back them up. The Warriors and Grizzlies are slated to face off twice in the month of March. First up will be on the home floor on March 9 after which they will travel to Golden State on the 18th.

Draymond Green is similarly known for being an agitator on the court, and will likely let Brooks know he heard the comments.
