Polo G Disses Dillon Brooks in New Freestyle

In this story:
It's been a wild several weeks for Memphis Grizzlies forward Dillon Brooks. After publicly saying he wanted LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers in round one, Brooks took his confidence a step further after beating the Lakers in Game 2, calling out LeBron James for being old.
Brooks' comments of course did not age well, as the Grizzlies were eventually eliminated by the Lakers, largely due to LA's ability to ignore Brooks on the offensive end. This series was followed by the report that Memphis would not be re-signing Brooks in free agency under any circumstances, which again resulted in the forward's name dominating news cycles.
Now with the NBA season over, Brooks still seemingly can't escape hearing his name circulate the internet, as rapper Polo G recently dissed the forward in a freestyle:

Brooks has been the center of a lot of attention this postseason, and that will likely continue to some extent this summer. A free agent, Brooks should have some suitors outside of Memphis, where he is not expected to be brought back. While there are some legitimate flaws to his game, Brooks is an All-Defensive player who can help a lot of teams on that end.
If Brooks is able to improve his outside shooting to the point where teams can no longer ignore him on that end, he could be a valuable piece for a lot of teams next season.
