On Monday, the Rockets were heading down the Game 4 vs Warriors path. Houston went down 2-1 in the opening round vs. Golden State.
It was a very contested game that both teams wanted to win. The Warriors wanted the commander’s 3-1 series lead, and the Rockets hoped they had tied the series 2-2. In the end, the Warriors scored 109-106. At halftime, Dillon Brooks exchanged words with Jimmy Butler. After scoring four points in the first half, Butler scored 23 in the second half and 14 in fourth place. Brooks thrusts at the bear and wakes Butler up in the second half. It’s not a smart move.

When will Dillon Brooks learn? Jimmy Butler scored four points at halftime. 4
He scored 23 points on his own for 25 points after an injured Jimmy Butler.
But remember, Dillon Brooks loves to thrust the Bears (LeBron cooked him in the 2023 playoffs after he lilled up him). Embarrassing https://t.co/wtjq68ozyy

Dillon Brooks is known for his defensive strength and shit talk in court. That’s how he plays the game. He was a Rockets starter and was matched with Jimmy Butler in the first round. In the game where Butler played at least 40 minutes this postseason, he scored over 25 points. Golden State will need Butler production to make a deep playoff run.
Before halftime on Monday, Jimmy Butler and Dillon Brooks had several choice words. Tali Eason shot a free throw and they were next to each other on the block. In the above clip, we see Brooks uses blasphemy when talking to Booter. This was all the butlers needed to fuel the second half. After four points in the first two quarters, Butler scored 23 in the second half. This included 14 in the fourth quarter.
Butler was clutch 12-12 from the Golden State free throw line. He added five rebounds, six assists and one block in Game 4 after the Warriors’ victory on Monday. Butler revealed that he “don’t like Dillon Brooks.” Houston’s sci-fi is one of the most hated players in the NBA. Jimmy Butler got a final laugh as Golden State won Game 4. They have a 3-1 series lead heading into Game 5 on Wednesday.
