Grizzlies Coach's Unexpected Reaction to Dillon Brooks' Trash Talk

Taylor Jenkins had a pretty funny response to Brooks.

In today's NBA, Dillon Brooks is one of the best agitators there is. The moment Brooks opens his mouth, he manages to get under his opponent's skin. There's one person who doesn't seem to react to his trolling though, and it's his former coach Taylor Jenkins.

When Brooks called the Grizzlies a team without swagger and likened them to an ex-girlfriend, Taylor Jenkins had an unexpected response to brush it off.

"That’s an interesting comment. I’ve been happily married for 10 years with four beautiful kids," Jenkins said. "I’ve got a beautiful marriage."

In fact, Grizzlies head coach Taylor Jenkins isn't even mad at Dillon Brooks for the comments. He's happy to see him thrive as a main option with the Houston Rockets.

"He's a heck of a player, he's having a great start to the year," Taylor Jenkins said. "Really happy for his early-season success."

When it comes to the Grizzlies' current failures, you can't really pinpoint it due to the absence of Dillon Brooks. The team is currently missing Ja Morant, Brandon Clarke, Derrick Rose, Xavier Tillman, and Steven Adams. Not only that, but they lost Tyus Jones from last season who was a major contributor. The struggles of the team go far beyond Dillon Brooks because Memphis is missing basically an entire starting lineup.

Still, it would have been nice for Grizzlies fans to put up a competitive fight against Brooks and the Rockets.
