    Bronny has made some plays here and there on defense, but he looks absolutely abysmal offensively

    he has the talent of a decent overseas player in a low level league

    he should’ve been a 3-4 year college player and developed his game to where he could possibly be a role player in NBA or have a solid career overseas

    He is not good enough now but who says he cannot improve to the level of a 9-10th guy in 3 years?

    I doubt that people can honestly say he does not have a chance......there are tons of kids that do not even have an NBA level body by Year 2......

    He has an NBA level of body. His shot mechanics look okay. He has the best player as his dad and who (might) hold him accountable.

    I hate the Lakers but they are a Top 3 franchise in history and have the best resources, best facilities, best gears......

    The Lakers are the only and 100% best situation for him to succeed, if he doesn't succeed, well, there is no other place he could.

    If LeBron were a bit older when he conceved Jr., he would have been a four year player in college before making the jump as a ready made role player. The only reason Spawn of Bron is being pushed into the league while in no way ready is thanks to the ambition to be the first NBA father son duo.

    While you are probably correct, a legitimate duo requires both players to have substantial/meaningful minutes together on the court. By the time Bronny is ready for significant minutes at the NBA level, if he ever is, Bron will be gone.

    I suppose Lebron could go play in the Gleague, if that is what they really want. :D But otherwise, its a false narrative to call Bron/Bronny a duo IMO.

    Bryce (more talented Maximus) is 16-17 and could end up in the NBA as well......while I think he might be able to play against his dad.....

    • LeBron got not 1 but 2 chances to have his sons play in the NBA.

    • He can easily play till 43-44 and teach his sons for a few years.

    The only thing I will miss about Lebron is watching the Lakers FO bow and scrape to his every need.

    He's even worse than Thanasis right now. But he's really young. Honestly thinking his best hope of a decent NBA career is to work his way to being one of those journeymen who bounces around the league getting garbage time minutes throughout his 20s.

    Broniño needs to make a run for the border. His game is caca.

    People knew he should have gone back to College for 2 more years and even then.....being around pros is not that bad.

    Better cardiologists for his heart

    At least he would win all E-games against NBA players.

    Someone needs to tell Jaylen that it's okay to be honest during a private conversation, he doesn't need to walk back his words for what was a very real assessment of Bronny's game. It's the media's and Lebron's fault for setting unrealistic expectations for that kid. He shouldn't have been drafted and he should of done what every other prospect does that goes undrafted, work his way up the ladder.

    Now you know why Jaylen Brown didn't get on Team USA. What Enes Kanter/Freedom said about Lebron, there is some truth to it. Lebron/Nike pull strings.
