Memphis Grizzlies' Dillon Brooks Calls LeBron James "Old"

Memphis Grizzlies forward Dillon Brooks apparently doesn't care LeBron James is the NBA's career scoring leader or one of the best players in league history.

Brooks and James exchanged words during the Grizzlies' victory against the Lakers in Game 2 of their Western Conference series. Afterward, Brooks had some choice words for James.

Classic Dillon Brooks on his confrontation with LeBron James: “I don’t care. He’s old. … I poke bears. I don’t respect someone until he gives me 40.”

"I don't care, he's old. You know what I mean?" Brooks said James, who is 38. "I was waiting for that. I was expecting him to do that Game 4, Game 5. He wanted to say something when I got my fourth foul. He should have been saying that earlier on. But I poke bears. I don't respect no one until they come and give me 40."

The Grizzlies won despite their best player, Ja Morant, being sidelined due a hand injury. The series is tied at 1.
