    Didn't Redick say he liked what he saw from Bronny?

    One of the underrated hilarious stories this off-season is the leak of Klutch threatening teams not to pick Bronny ahead of the Lakers.
    “Yes, Mr. Rich Paul, please, we don’t want any trouble Mr. Rich Paul, we’ll do whatever you tell us, Mr Rich Paul, sir!"

    Perhaps RS has more raw talent that hasn’t been refined and tuned for the NBA game. As I said you can’t compare a rookie to a proven vet in that regard. The vet knows the offensive tempo and flow. Knows playbook. Knows the types of defenses teams play. Able to handle NBA level on ball defenders. Familiar with game speed. Pressure situations. How NBA calls fouls or how to draw fouls. The defensive intensity it takes to win. Handling pressure from media and fans. Mental stress and difficulties with grueling schedule and constant traveling. Etc etc. RS is not a better professional NBA player than Holliday right now at this time. In 6 months to a year or longer? Maybe. Likely. All depends on how well he adapts and the work he puts in.

    How can you be the best player on a team that played it's best basketball without you? The team got better across the board & played faster

    This must be one of your fantasies or something

    People like Bobby fun to fu%k with since they don’t know shi+ about basketball but talk a big game while disrespecting others condescendingly.

    I'm sure you're being facetious, but I actually feel better about his size after watching the game. He is only a quarter of an inch shorter than Steph, and man, he was hitting those Steph like deep threes out there. Meanwhile, he already looks stronger than a full grown Steph. I'm not over here proclaiming him to be the next Steph Curry, but even a poor man's Steph with better defense is a helluva basketball player.

    But man, that shot looked pure.

    I really hope AJ Griffin can get it together because it would be nice to be able to put out some lineups like Sengun, Bari, Griffin, Reed and FVV where the floor is actually spread. If Jalen or Cam can become reliable shooters I welcome them to that kind of lineup too.

    Nix is a far better player. He dominates the G League. Bronny won't.

    Any safe streaming options to watch this if I don't have ESPN? League Pass won't show it until after summer league is over.
