The Bronny James show (Official Bronny thread - put all Bronnny thoughts here or in rookie thread)

Tracymcgoaty · Post #1 » by **Tracymcgoaty** » Sat Oct 19, 2024 3:03 am

Listen this whole clownshow of father and son thing...I'll bear it out if it's just for the cameras at the beginnng of the season and then Bronny goes under the radar for the rest of the season.

But i swear if the Lakers actually use this dude as a rotation piece on this team im done. Im legit done with this until Lebron retires.

Ever since the 2020 chip it's been a remarkable **** of letting key cogs leave and signing atrocious fits.

We had the Westbrook era along with the Ham era.

Im not going through another **** clownshow franchise moment.

I know damn **** well this draft wasn't from the scouting department. But it is what it is.

I'd go watch Wemby play rather than watch another 2 years of embarrassing play. I hope JJ has the balls to actually know how **** bad Bronny is..

And it's Lebrons fault. All of it is. He put a bullseye on this kid and it's going to break him. He shouldn't see a **** minute of floor time until he shows he's even G-league level.

He is starting the season (first week) with the Lakers and will be in the G league rest of the season after. No need to worry

Of course this would be the post just prior to him putting together a decent game.

Just a general question; Does anyone think Bronny will at some point be an actual deserving NBA player? Like an actual third stringer?

And to think the Lakers gave him a guaranteed deal? Atrocious. Kenyon Martin recently said that the Lakers shouldn't send him down to the G as those guys are going to go at him harder than ever each night to show that he simply doesn't belong in the league. He's making more than any of them playing there and they are playing for league deals and not for the sake of just being around. I can't disagree with him.

This nepotism show needs to stop and the powers that be finally fess up to what this was known to be the whole time: An ego stroke of the highest and most ridiculous oder to the elder James as a gift on the way out.

The Lakers aren’t winning the title this year, they used a 2nd round pick, and it’s the preseason.

I’m all for criticizing the Lakers and/or Lebron when it makes sense, but this feels like a nothing-burger.

He will throw a lob to Lebron in garbage time once and he is off to a G-League. They just need a good photo/video for LeBrons "legacy".

They lost by like 60. I'm not sure that counts as anyone having a decent game.

of course

but look at it this way. there was always going to be an inevitability to this. i;m hoping you didn't expect a happy ending

surely you cannot dismiss history like it was never going to revisit the lakers as it had the other teams. the clown show, the groveling, the melodrama, the utter implosion of an org especially one so poorly run as the lakers. in fact if this parity thing persists, the lakers will always be behind the 8ball and out of sync with the rest of the league. it's no longer a star driven league. you need depth /flexibility to maneuver THIS landscape. lets say this is the way it will be and you have a deeeeep western conference. everyone thinks they have a shot. do you think the star driven mentality that has been a laker trademark is going to draw stars away from a deep league

i dunno, man. look at this laker team. they were sukkking. why did they get lebron,,,because HE wanted to go to la and extend his post career entertainment empire,,,and he brought klutch and klutch brought ad. remember the lakers with lebron and pre-ad. they sukkked too! and the irony is,,,why does it feel like every player the lakers traded away ,,,they want back :lol:

Yeah. Hood-Schifino (#17 pick) looks unplayable, Lewis (#40) didn't make it into rotation in the preseason, yet you see people crushing over #55 pick being a weak player. Prior to Warriors' game, from what I remember Bronny was 12th player on Lakers team minutes-wise, he's not a part of rotation for now.

Hood-Schifino was as bad as Bronny this preseason, but #55 pick has no value while #17 is worthy of rotational player. So stop pretending you're criticizing Bronny for objective reasons and standards, you're doing it for publicity and clicks. No disrespect to JHS, I just don't see any "JHS is the worst player in the league" videos after 31 TS% preseason in his 2nd year earning thrice as much as Bronny.

There are much more dangerous cases of nepotism in the league and much worse draft picks on Lakers roster, at least for now, lol.

I am more concerned about their G league team and Bronny overall, because that guy is not even a G league player, but they will force feed him minutes there, and he will suck, and people will not stop talking about him sucking. He sucks, I watched that insulting second round draft show to see if my guy Mantas Rubštavičius gets drafted, an actual player, he didn't, but this bum did and they spent entire evening talking about his bum. I still feel dirty for watching that, but I really wanted to see draft show, real players get drafted and all, maybe I am the bad guy... Remember when NBA draft was about that?

Yesterday, I put few hundred Euros on Lakers under, I do not see how this team any good in any way, and if Bronny is around, thats just free money.

LeBron won that one championship, the one a lot of people dont value equally as others, but he did that. But overall, big disappointment his whole Lakers tenure is. WHen he signed, I said that Lakers fans, and not just Kobe fans, will get what GOAT level player trully is, because so many think Kobe is GOAT candidate when he clearly isn't, but boy how wrong I was. LeBron is GOAT candidate, but Lakers fans didn't really see that player, and now he is holding entire franchise hostage, entire team will suck, because of his vanity project. I do not see how he earned that, its the Lakers, no one cares that much you won one bubble championship,
