“Brooks Owns (Tyrese) Haliburton”: Fans Go Crazy as Dillon Brooks Flexes on Pacers All Star in Menacing Manner

The Pacers seem to be getting the upper hand going into the second half of the Rockets matchup. But the result is not definite. Yet what has captured everyone’s attention now is none other than Dillon Brooks. Back again with another one of his infamous stances, he managed to set the internet ablaze! A layup in the first half led to a missed shot fluidly landing in the basket, courtesy of Brooks. In the process, the Pacers star, Tyrese Haliburton, was knocked to the ground.

A typical Dillon Brooks celebration followed, with the Canadian staring down Haliburton, who was getting back up.

Social media is abuzz with Dillon Brooks-love

This is what set the stage for the bevy of comments that are still coming in strong! While there is no love lost for Dillon Brooks because of his self-declared rivalry with King James, social media and the NBA world still know to appreciate a good basketball moment.

An obvious LeBron James fanatic was in awe of the way Dillon Brooks owned Haliburton at the moment that he set aside his GOAT love to comment.

Another user couldn’t hold his tears at the way Brooks stood over Tyrese as the latter took his time standing up from the ground.

Yet another one had some strong words. “He’s locking up that fraud.”

Yet another user says, “he owns that ist merchant.” 

Anyway, his celebration was cut short when Brooks had to leave due to what was announced as a right oblique abdominal strain. And it just so happened after his mock stand over a fallen Haliburton. The Pacers went on to win the game, crushing the Rockets 123-117.

Either way, his shenanigans are not new to the NBA world. So much so that he had given himself a nickname that would go well in a Marvel universe.

‘Dillon the Villain’ is just getting started

No one can forget Dillon Brooks’ swat against Daniel Theis’ groin during the Pacers-Rockets matchup on October 11. What made the incident unforgettable was a new nickname he dubbed on himself after the ejection. “The name is ‘Dillon the Villain,’” he had said after.

Even though many relish the aggressiveness and mockery that Brooks engages in, there are times when those supporters also agree that the Canadian is out of bounds. And the Theis incident was one such situation. With his favorite pastime being ‘poking the bear’, it won’t be long before he becomes the second coming of Draymond Green.

Hopefully, the 27-year-old guard/forward knows where to draw the line. For all his craziness, there is no doubt that he is a skilled player!
