Andre Iguodala goes down in flames from jumpstart Memphis squad

Look, I know we like to talk about the Toronto Raptors a lot on here, but sometimes other teams are firing bullets and the best I can do is dissect them. So, of course, when Dillon Brooks started talking trash about Andre Iguodala, I was going to get involved.

And, woo boy, the fire is only heating up.

With the trade deadline quickly approaching, Igoudala and his camp assured the Memphis Grizzlies and the world that he would sit out the whole season if he wasn’t moved to a different team, which, like, is fine, I guess. I mean, I’d rather be known for working out with players, mentoring them, being a team player, and still wanting to be moved.

Psh, I bet that if you helped the Grizzlies then they’d help you, but that’s just my two cents on the matter.

Be that as it may, with this news from Iguodala, there was one Memphis player who couldn’t keep quiet about it: Dillon Brooks, who is Canadian by the way.

Here’s what he had to say:

Yikes, that’s some fire coming from a young man, but he’s not really wrong and the competitiveness only fires up the Grizzlies more. Even, Ja Morant piped in with an emoji:

This spurned Steph Curry to chime in, only for Ja to come back after him:

All in all, it was some great popcorn entertainment for anybody in the league. And you know what? Those Memphis Grizzlies players should be pissed and fired up. With them being much better than assumed, they’ve got every right to come after people who said they were going to be trash.

The league is better for it, the Grizzlies are better for it, man, even Igoudala might be better for it because maybe he’ll come back with a vengeance.

Next. Should Masai Ujiri tackle the New York Knicks challenge?. dark

Man, I love the trade deadline. GIVE ME MORE MADNESS!

Until next week, guys, that’s all we’ve got for this week’s Trash-talk!
