Dort is just copying it. McDaniels and Crowder do too to a lesser degree of success.
Get all up in BI's face. Grab, pull, bully him. He'll wilt. He's not tough.

BI just doesn't have the athleticism to play his style in the playoffs
The irony is he would be so much more productive if he just bought in

Give the man some credit and spell his name right. Dillon Brooks.

I grew up in awe of fade-away mid-range shot that Larry Bird & MJ would routinely make in the clutch, in the playoffs. That shot was a trend-setting separator move much like the step-back 3 is today.
I never thought I'd see the day I'd hate that shot. Brandon somehow has made me hate it. He shoots it when we desperately need 3's, fades away from potential And-1 fouling opportunities, and will seemingly miss 75% of them in the 4th quarter.

The skills that really matter in the NBA:
1. 3 pt shooting
2. Scoring at the rim/Getting to the line
3. Defense
BI doesn’t excel at any of those. A max player needs to be great at 2 of those, or elite at 1 and better than average at the other 2.
The 3 pt shooting is entirely his own choice. He could be much better there but simply hasn’t incorporated it into his game.

BI never has been a pull-up 3-ball shooter, although he could be if he worked more at that aspect of his game. No coincidence that his 3PAs have decreased as Pels have him as a primary creator, with no traditional lead to set him up for catch-and-shoot where he's more comfortable. Counteracting the bully-ball by playing with force appears not to be an option he has right now so he has to find other ways to be effective.
