Bronny not running back on defense is ridiculous. The lack of urgency is nuts

The Lakers are four guys running an offense and Bronny James standing around watching.

Bronny is not only the worst player in the league, he’s probably the worst of the last decade.

I get that but the starters’ health, I would imagine, is more important to start the season. Either way, they blew the lead.
No player logged more than 35 minutes in an overtime game, and it's not football. Looks like a nonissue to me.
Well at least we're not Detroit!

Bronny vs Wiggins mid air joust, unstoppable force vs immovable object

Bronny with a thunderous alley. He usually stands in the corner to give his lesser teammates a chance to shine because he's unselfish, but when he wants to he can dominate

As I understand it Spencer is considered one of the greatest lacrosse players in history. I've wanted Steph and Spencer to share the floor more to see two all-time greats play together.

Bronny jokes aside, Kal-el Son of Jor-El Ware's skill level, agility at his size gives me Amare vibes, whoa. Very intriguing. There must be some reason he didn't go higher because his game looks nice asf.

Jalen Hood Schifino is looking like a bust so far. Bronny outplayed him. I wonder if people will start to criticize him for his lackluster play.

35 minutes for Mitchell in their final preseason game- that's pretty thibs-like from kenny.

Funny. There was a Laker fan on here a few weeks ago saying this guy was the key asset to them acquiring Trae Young. Suggested we were all sleeping on him. Smh, gotta love the GB.
