Dillon Brooks gave stump

The Houston Rockets fought another day on Wednesday and defeated the Golden State Warriors (131-116) in game 5 to ward off the excretion. The series now moves 3-2 to the Bay Area, so that the young rockets have a long way to go.

In the meantime, Dillon Brooks was again in the middle of some controversy. During the fourth game, fans believed that there was a sequence in which Brooks clearly tried to hit Steph Curry's injured thumbs while he was losing a shot. In game 5, the Warriors show went one step further and said that the rockets deliberately set up on Curry's thumb.

When the Warriors' above -mentioned clip became aware of Steve Kerr, he said that this type of contact is allowed according to the current NBA rules so that nothing is to be done. Rockt's head coach IMe Udoka was also asked about the situation and refused to answer. However, Brooks gave a blunt answer when he was faced with these allegations.

“I played the game,” said Brooks. “If I had an injured ankle, I would attack this ankle every time. So whatever you say on the show, you can keep saying it.”

The bad blood between these two sides reappeared in game 5, with a Warriors Bench player being ejected due to the head of Alperen Senengun. Brooks' comments are unlikely that this fire triggered it.

Game 6 was scheduled for Friday evening in the Chase Center in San Francisco.
