The Lakers players supported Vanderbilt: rightfully attacked the dirty Brooks - voila! sport. Jared Vanderbilt was ejected after a confrontation with Dillon Brooks in a loss in Houston, his friends claim: he committed a serious foul, hit LeBron, cursed and hit, and this is what he deserves.

Lakers players defended Vanderbilt's actions and justified his anger at Brooks, who they claim continues to stir up and provoke. LeBron James stayed on the court even though the game seemed over and the Lakers were going to Atlanta for a back-to-back game, night after night.
