    It took his entire time in HTown and his new work in Phoenix for me to become a fan, but I've grown to enjoy DB. I'm hoping to catch a Suns game next time I stay in AZ.

    He will forever be a "jerk" in the league, but he plays so incredibly hard. I don't think he'll ever stop with some of his dirty ploys or his desire to be viewed with disdain, but I no longer view him as a ZaZa type of guy. He's just willing to go to war for his team, so I think you tolerate more of the antics. PHX and Book view him as one of their leaders and ultimate glue guys in the locker room which is very different than what he became in Memphis.

    Very underrated offensive player due to his ability to muscle his way, get to his spots and knock them down 3s.

    Overall good defense more often than not, a tad too slow....-- lives off energy and going to 'War'.

    But agree with you, he takes it too far and can lose you a Playoff series with his antics and shot selections.

    I feel like he got scapegoated when it was Bane that was actually the ******* in Memphis.

    The Grizz turned to dust as soon as Dillon left. Bane left and they're the same team

    He won me over, but lost me in terms of being a tough guy when I saw how badly he got punked by Butler and Draymond in the playoffs. He’s your typical Matt Barnes fake thug type, but as a person and regular season guy he’s great. Just needs to stop pretending he’s a tough guy, 3rd person referrals and being a “villain”. He’s not.

    Btw 30?!!! He looks at least 35.
