Do you think JJ Redick immediately started drawing up plays for Bronny on the whiteboard when they announced the pick?

Every “cool” moment of Lebron’s career/life has been so painfully manufactured that they all kind of completely suck.
Please reconsider your animal consumption.

Did Enaruna sign anywhere? One of my draft hot takes is that he's better than Da Silva, but a lot of this is just not liking Da Silva much.

The Lakers are a joke. Has a franchise ever so transparently handed over the reigns of their franchise to a player and his agent?

I this it's cool they'll get to play together a bit. Giannis will be 45 when Liam enters the league so we probably won't see them together. There's plenty of things to criticize Lebron about over the years. This isn't one of them.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

It can be both cool, and true that Lebron calls all the shots while being unoriginal and telling everyone who listens that he doesn’t call the shots.

Didn't the Bucks basically do what the Lakers did to get Chris Livingston, with the same people.

Yeah, anyone who has been okay with Thanasis taking up a roster spot can't say **** about the Lakers drafting Bronny.

LOL Lebron is whatever, he’s not a villain. But also Giannis is so many tiers below LeBron as a puppet GM
Its barely comparable. One is an immigrant who management shrewdly surrounded with family and supportive young assistants in an effort to make him comfortable and resign. The other empowered his high school best friend to run a sports agency (hey, more power to them both) and has made probably 50 personnel decisions.

He's a Celtic, and not better than Da Silva. I watched him play live and came away completely unimpressed.

Finally catching up with Sam Vecenies second round podcast and I LOVE that he took the time out to absolutely rip the Bucks player drafting and development under Horst. Love it, could not possibly agree more with his sentiments.

Anyway back to our lack of UDFA moves and whoever the hell our two way guys are…wtf. Once AGAIN with a BIG GAPING HOLE at back up Center we just let every undrafted big go elsewhere
