Bulls’ DeMar DeRozan dishes on Dillon Brooks fight,: ‘I just don’t like him’

Earlier in the NBA season when the Chicago Bulls were on the road taking on the Houston Rockets, DeMar DeRozan and Dillon Brooks got into a little scuffle. Brooks has gotten into other altercations with NBA veterans recently as well as Draymond Green and LeBron James are two others that have had somewhat similar experiences with Brooks. Both DeRozan and Brooks got ejected after their scuffle, and DeRozan recently admitted on a podcast that he doesn't like Brooks.

During a recent episode of The 25/10 Show, DeMar DeRozan discussed the altercation that he had with Dillon Brooks. He was upset that Brooks came up behind him when he wasn't looking.

“I’m not going to lie, I just don’t like him,” DeRozan said. “And for two, don’t walk up behind me, that’s rule number one, don’t walk up on no man behind him when his back’s turned.”

DeRozan also noted that him and Draymond Green will go back and forth when they're playing against each other, but they're friends, so it's different. He isn't friends with Brooks, so he doesn't like the way that he talks.

“Don’t run up behind me, and just don’t talk s**t, I respect everybody,” DeRozan said. “Now if you’re my man, me and Draymond [Green] talk crazy to each other but that’s my man.”

DeMar DeRozan has another rule

DeSean Jackson was also on the podcast with DeMar DeRozan, and he brought up another rule that DeRozan has.

DeSean Jackson: “And the other rule you can’t forget, don’t punch me if, what did you say about your birthday?”

DeMar Derozan: “Yeah don’t hit me, if we don’t talk every day, don’t hit me on my birthday man.”

Well, DeRozan can certainly be added to the list of NBA players that do not like Dillon Brooks. Brooks has been in the NBA for seven seasons now, and he isn't looking to make a lot of friends on teams that aren't his. He is becoming known for instances like the one he had with DeRozan, and he has gotten under the skin of several veteran players now. It will be interesting to see future matchups between DeRozan and Brooks after DeRozan publicly said that he didn't like him.
