[Orangefan1]

Very good but overrated.

If his last name wasn’t James where would he be ranked?

Dunno. But his talent is there - the question is how it translates to a college and pro game.

His team hasn't been that great nor that dominant, ending in 2023Syracuse fashion...

See that in a lot of sports with siblings and parents. The offspring or siblings get rated higher than they should. Not meaning they aren't good but they are likely getting a superficial increase in perception of them.

Bronny can play. Is he top 30? Maybe. But he's certainly a legit top 100 player, easily.

Most NIL $$ lol? Wonder if that is even a consideration for someone like Bronny. But my son is a double USC grad, so one of my teams.

Jealousy is an ugly emotion, and most Americans have no fear showing it

Agreed.

As someone who never was a Lebron lover, but not hater either, I’m very happy for Bronny, and it’s very good for college basketball so anybody that’s mad about it is just a loser.

Social media is a cesspool of hate. It’s about as bad as local newspaper commentary.

Bronny to the Lakers

Best of luck Bronny. Hope you and dad crush it.

If his last name wasn’t James where would he be DRAFTED?
He took Judah's spot on the Lakers.
No, wait, no he didn't. Wrong thread.

in the strip clubs?

 

[upperdeck]

every draft pundit I heard said zero chance he got drafted with his name.

But it also helps it was like the worst draft class in 20+ yrs.

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

If the kid is an NBA player, the rest of the league should be ashamed of themselves for how they let Rich Paul control this whole process.
I am sure there were threats that if anyone drafted Bronny, no Klutch clients would sign or resign with that team.
If he is not an NBA player, then I get the Lakers drafting him (rather than signing him as a FA) as a goodwill gesture to LBJ.

Most talked about 2nd round pick ever...
