Like most knowledgeable fans, they just choose to ignore Bronny since he won’t be a relevant player soon, or ever.

I went to nba.com and Bronny is title story... like wow, did he lead anything in stats? No, he was just random guy who wasnt terrible. Wow, what a story! Hes a nobody and we sick of outlets selling us thin air. They had article for players to watch in Vegas, and Bronnobody was number 7, ahead of first and second picks from the draft... For how long we keep this charade?
Social media, particularly Facebook, is even worse. ESPN, CBS, ABC etc are also milking the cash cow that is Bronny, for being the son and not as a worthy or good player. All posts about him even though he really has not done anything special.
"Snooze for 30 days" is the only way to punish these sites, if they post something like this (almost akin to fake news) i'll see them again the following month and see if they are posting the same trash. You get why they do it, it gets the reaction (both sides) and the traction for their socials channel but there is a way to go against what they are doing and that's just to not follow them or react to their posts for certain topics.
I think I definitely not guilty of giving them clicks and attention, I am very straight forward about sites and people i boycott. But I have nba app as just person who follow sports, and todays rockets game score was broken, so i figured to visit nba.com dirrectly. Sadly their page had same broken boxscore problem, but there i saw stupid Bronny front page. Story number one. Definitely aint clicking them again.
As local guy, I very much hate basketnews.lt page, but I was still clicking them from just habit, even tho its just straight trash site. But now i just deleted it all from quick dial, i recently got rid of facebook also. I only visit eurohoops and realgm now.
