    And every coach would want his son on his team unless your name is Doc Rivers who traded his son away...

    What a steal, I'm glad Bronny is taking a pay cut so The Lakers can get good role players around him...

    Hot take for sure. What will be wild is Bronny becoming the next Lebron. Let’s see what happens in the next 1-3 years.

    If you think Bronny is bad, just remember the Lakers have had freaking KOSTAS Antetokounmpo on the roster for the last 3 years just in case Giannis would have him hostage. Lots of people bring up Thanasis but Kostas has absolutely no business in the NBA. The Lakers are built on nepotism.

    Thanasis is one thing but Kostas has been in the NBA too and he's for sure worse than Bronny. They're even trying to sneak Alex in. Get all the Antetokounmpo brothers contracts.

    Bronny is benefitting from Nepotism and I couldn't care less. So what.

    The owners of teams can cut or trade or try to devalue a player anytime they want. They can hire family members to work in positions they have no previous qualifications for. You never hear this much complaining.

    But as soon as someone from a tier below them does the same thing, here comes the people from the financial tier below them trying to pull them back down like crabs in a bucket.

    The ultra rich and powerful have the perfect system and the sports world reflects real life.

    Bronny got picked when he has NO business in the NBA. He has the most lack of talent I have ever seen from a professional athlete and got paid millions for it. Like seriously, there is no reason his Jersey should be on sale in stores in HOUSTON.

    Yawn. That’s just basketball man. Nothing to see there. But Bronny did look small and overmatched at times vs NBA Summer League competition. After opening night, when he makes history with his father, the Lakers will be smart to hide him in the GLeague for the rest of the year. No need to embarrass the kid this year.
