This upset green, but what really triggered him was Brooks' refusal to shake hands with the Warriors once the series is finished. Following the Warriors' 103-89 Win In match 7, Brooks ran on the field without recognizing the Warriors after shooting 3 out of 9 for eight points in 36 minutes.
Green made Brooks to this decision during Tuesday's appearance On “The Draymond Green Show with Baron Davis”.
“Dillon Brooks ran on the field. So when I say you see what the guys are made, he has run on the ground. Do not shake anyone. You have admitted that you are trying to hurt Steph's hand. Which, well by me, my brother. I understand, we all have it when you hoop.
“If you are going to be on this kind of time, wear nuances at the press conference, you are going to talk, you are going to be Mr. Big Bad Wolf, don't lose and do not face music. Do not be this guy. Because, again, you lose a lot of respect for the guys at that time.”
Green was not over there. Later in the conversation, Green said that no one in the court respects Brooks because of the way he acts.
“Dillon Brooks could not go into this series, largely because no one in the court respects you. So everything you do, the way it will be examined, the way it will be received is not beneficial for your team when you try to win championships.
“When you try to compete at the highest level and you are this type of guy, this is not beneficial for your team and it grabs you by ear.”
Brooks is known for its defensive prowess and its ability to submit to the skin of adversaries. The series with the Warriors is far from the first time that Brooks has annoyed an opponent. He made waves with Memphis' grizzly Let's match heated With LeBron James in playoffs. Brooks checked James and even managed to be ejected after A low blow to the Lakers superstar.

This did not prevent the Rockets from awarding Brooks a contract of $ 86 million over four years. Brooks was up to this agreement, setting up its usual figures while locking opposing scorers.
But for all that he does well – including frustrating his opponents – Brooks Stacks does not age well when his team falls flat. It does not help Brooks aggravate things with the way he manages these losses.
