- The NBA Draft is a few months away but Bronny James made headlines after declaring while keeping his name in the transfer portal. However, one anonymous NBA GM said quote: 'Bronny is nowhere near ready. He should go back to school to develop at his own pace or he risks getting lost in the shuffle, whether or not he’s playing with his dad.' An anonymous scout also discussed Bronny's draft stock, saying quote: 'Bronny is an undersized non-shooting guard. The shot looks good but doesn’t go in. Those guys scare me the most.' Skip Bayless, Paul Pierce and Keyshawn Johnson react to the comments and decide whether Bronny should stay in college or not.

Y’all know good and well that boy ain’t ready!😂
So is ace or Flagg nba player's? Anyone? Or do you have to have a cry baby daddy 👨
Paul His Dad is lebron he should already have Training😳😳😳😳😳
LBJ out here tryin to pull a King Jaffa Joffre on the NBA
“Your highness there are others that earned a spot in the league”
The King- “LET THEM WAIT!! I WANT TO PLAY WITH MY SON.’ 😂😂😂😂😂
@TenaciousZen surprised he didn't get Shannon in the draft
We really debating if a 6'2 shooting guard averaging 4ppg and shooting under 30% from 3 is NBA ready or not lol God bless america
He's 6'4 and college systems suck.
@@prolific1518 cope harder
Na it's just the media further pushing the lebron narrative. None of these clowns want to keep it real
@@prolific1518u got some fresh glaze on your lips coper
This is why the NBA is dead and resorted to scripted highway robbery with Las Vegas to make money
“His brother can really clap” did Skip just make me laugh? 😂
Same thing I said and I don’t like skip
😂
Skip has his moments. I wish he wasn’t the moderator. I think he’s out of his comfort zone
@@dwainfrett5385 They need a moderator bad. Too cheap to hire one. Skip needs to go back to his fiery persona. They shut him down too much with this new version of the show. Bring in a hot female moderator who knows her stuff and can handle Skip and Key.
Tired old joke. He said it for Jack Haley, John Salley, Coach Jason Garrett etc
There’s dudes in college coming off the bench averaging more points than him
With less minutes too 😭🤣
Doesn’t matter when your Dad is lebron james certain things happen because your dad is lebron James who has nothing but an immaculate role model in the spotlight for years
I mean what about that IG model and the failing grades at his school
It's not about points it's about basketball IQ how yu play the game HE A PRO BUT HE NEED A LIL MORE WORK HE GOOD THO
@@Fred-cd3py 😂😂😂
Paul pierce look like somebody holding him at gunpoint to say bronny ready
Bro😭😂😭😂
Wait til you learn the games are all scripted
Trey Young, Garland, AD not going to Cleveland or any small market team for a favor to sign Bronnie. Hells no
Put Bronny in the G League then we ALL will see what he can do and his worth?
@@bobminor488 G League way better than what LSU faces. What stats in the G League would determine if he is ready or not? Lots of guys balling out and not getting called up
Nepotism is real. They’re players scoring 8ppg with less playing time than Bronny, who have no shot of being drafted.
Nepotism has been a thing long before LBJ and will be after both in sports and corporate world. This time it happens to benefit us and now there’s outrage about it.
Think about bro who was dropping all those 3s in the tournament and he knew he wasn’t going to the league
bro mac mclung scores 30 a night in the d league won 2 mvps in the d league and won 2 NBA dunk contest and cant get a spot lmaooo bronny averages 7 points a game
@LuisEmilio91 how does it benefit...if anything it's gonna hurt his mental health in the long run...he's trash...he needs more time in college...and if his name is called on draft night it's only because of his father...so again how does it benefit and please don't say some stupid that has to do with color...
To be fair he came off of a heart attack and came back after the season had started. He showed he was on a good level during the McDonald's game, 15 pts on 5-8 from 3. If he can model his game after Lillard with that Lebron athleticism/IQ, he can be an 18/8 type player with great defense in his prime. Imo a player like that goes top 5 any year, stats don't always tell the story.
This kid potentially stealing a roster spot from someone actually deserving of it is utterly ridiculous.
The 14-15 roster spot on a roster doesn’t usually play anyways
@@HHHPedigrees True, but the difference is someone can have their dream come true of officially being on an NBA roster, receiving validation for all their hard work and life changing money even as a bench warmer. But instead it may very well be LeBron's kid that everyone knows isn't ready for the NBA. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure Bronny puts in work but let's be real, if he wasn't LeBron's kid would any team be seriously looking at him right now? He should stay in college or go to the G League and develop.
@@MidnightTacoRun 💯
Like Giannis’ brother
💯💯💯
Westbrook 6'5 ... This guy knows nothing about basketball 😂.
He's actually 6'4"and 200lbs
@@its3243
Russ is actually 6’2 1/2 which = 6’4 in the basketball world. Bronny James is actually 6’1. There’s recent pictures of him standing next to Chris Paul & Bronny is at best 1-1.5 inches taller.
@@acason4bronny 6’3 look at the picture of him next to Steph curry he’s atleast an inch taller
@@Sleezygem
Nope, there's 3-4 pictures from the All-Star game with him standing right next to Chris Paul & at best Bronny has an inch to an inch & a half on him. Bronny is 6'2.5 TOPS!! This isn't remotely debatable. Everyone knows that the 6'4 listing is rounded up with gym shoes on.
@@Sleezygem
I saw the Curry picture & they're literally the exact same height & Bronny is closer to the camera which helps his cause. Bronny is no taller than 6'2-6'2.5 it's just a FACT. If he was he'd have a significant advantage over CP3 & they're literally standing eye to eye although I'll admit the camera angle does benefit CPS a little.
Never thought I'd swe the day when a guy who averaged 4ppg off the bench would be talked about as if he's a lottery pick. The nba is becoming laughable
Who saying he is a lottery?
@@iralewis4674 I see reading and comprehension weren't your strong points in school
@@AggravatedMan365 no he saw what he wanted too, that how a majority of LeBum fans are. They are so triggered by anyone being critical of their Queen 👸🏻 😭😭
The point is whether or not he’s ready for the nba and his chance of being chosen… not that he’d do really well in the draft and he’d be a game changer to the league. So no, he’s not talked about as if he’s a lottery pick.
I would not even sing him undrafted
"Couldn't play dead in a cowboy movie"🤣🤣 I needed that laugh
11:00 keyshawn got me crying yooo "all you gotta do is look at giannis brother" 💀😭
hes probably better than bronny
@user-li6ns2lk3z Nah he's not
@@user-li6ns2lk3z I'll take Thanasis any day before Lebron James son....
@@jt-zg8tr thats exactly what i meant. thanasis may look like a clown but he had more experience than bronny. lebron and bronny are both delusional. no nba team would take both of them just to see them play for what?just for views? mightve work for couple of games but whole season? nobodys going to watch bronny. 🤷♂️🤦
Bronny is READY to play NBA2K
😅
😂😂😂😂💯
Yooo "couldn't play dead in a cowboy movie" 📣😆😆😆
If he only averages four points a game in college, what do you think the big boys are gonna do?😂😂😂 and daddy done put a target on his back.😂😂😂😂
💯💯
Imo Bronny should’ve transferred to a smaller school where he can be the number one option. There’s nothing wrong with playing 3-4 years in college. Dame, CJ, Jimmy Butler and other successful players have done it
Y’all got to speak for y’all self! That’s what the young man want to do! None of y’all business! It’s his life
He would’ve likely become the starting PG at USC next year honestly. I full year as the starter at USC would’ve done him wonders
@@GiovanniSS1987me giving my opinion is me speaking for myself. The same thing this show that you follow does everyday lol
That’s true but playing on the Lakers with your father before he retire is a once in a lifetime opportunity
The difference is all those players you named had talent, Bronny is just not that good no matter how much people try to justify it. He wasn't in high school, he wasn't at USC.
Lebron is literally gonna force his kid in the NBA, this a movie 😂😂🤦🏻♂️
4.8 pts, 2.8 rebs, 2.1 ast with heart issues.. this corruption on a whole other level jesus
It's not corrupt, He wants to play with his son, and he has that much clout in the organization and he's earned that request. And trust me I'm not a LeBron fan, just stating facts.
@@MagikFingers420 are you high?
So you mean every great player no matter sport has the right to play with their son?
🤡
@Sandr_o lmao not all great players play long enough to play with their son goofy. LeBron still playing like he did when he entered the league when he was 17 or 18 years old. So you took homie comment the wrong Dann way
@@jersey00scraps you both smoking the same thing.
You don’t really get it. I dont care if he been in the league 30 years with chips every year, that doesn’t validate that he’s son which at this point is not even close to being able to play in the nba, plays with him!!!
Buddy the fact of the matter is that LeBron has earned that kind of respect to have that opportunity. Like WTF else is there to say that's just what it is. Not corruption tf you even talking about😂😂 @@Sandr_o
This is a slap in the face to alot of good players who never got drafted that should have been
Coming from a major Lebron fan and supporter. I agree wholeheartedly. 😢
Giannis has a brother that’s absolute garbage. Does your comment apply to him?
💯💯💯
Bronny is acting on Lebron's limited timeline, not doing what's best for him. Jokic was a second-rounder, but Lakers might burn a first round pick and get LeGM'ed again.
Bronny told you that personally ?
@@patrickjohnson4441 Bronny's games told me, and any objective person, that he's not NBA ready. But sports are entertainment, so you may get the Ken Griffey-esque tale even if the kid isn't ready to start.
Lebron taking them to the cleaners. They will go out first round, he will renew his contract, force them to draft his son and ask for more money next year with 1 title in 8 years. Gulp
Lebron owns the lakers not Jeanie
The Giannis brother point was valid lol. He hardly ever sees in game action.
That's where LeBron got the idea from
It's not valid, because Thanasis is not Lebron James son. Bronny has James on the back of his jersey, there's expectations that come with that. All these comps to these all star players don't mean anything, Lebron James is one of the top 2 players of all time, some consider him the Goat. You don't get to show up in the NBA and call yourself Joe Smo, nobody is gonna take it easy on you and "let you develop" you better be coming in the league ready, because those NBA players stay ready. Bottom line is Bronny is not ready period.
@@StrictlyRLNo one is going to see bronny and carry him the way they see lebron 🤦🏾♂️. People learned even when MJ’s sons were playing that the players and their sons are completely different. So no your point does not add up, considering that he can develop in the nba and as these guys have said, there were people who haven’t looked promising in the nba from their college years yet still got chosen and became great. And similarly there were some good players that shouldn’t have been in the nba.
So your saying that nobody will pay to see Lebron James and his son play in LA and once Lebron retires we still won't have expectaions of Bronny carrying Lebrons basketball legacy? Please tell me thats not accurate, because im wondering how he gets a pass to just show up and not be successful. True he's not his dad, but there are expectations.
And yes he can develop in the Gleague, alot of players do but again he will still be expected to live up to that name in some way, that will always be there. MJ sons were an aboration, ofcourse we all know they were trash and didn't pan out, but people just don't assume that as much with another greats son, especially when we've seen his progression up to this point. Bronny has real potential, but no one is going to just forget who he is. Lets not forget Lebron James was the one that called out his son, saying he was better than half the players in the NBA right now, he created that narrative. Lets not let Lebron off the hook, and let him play his son down now, you started it, better show and prove... thats it.
"His brother can really clap" - Skip Bayless
Funny how they have all this energy and bravery to go after Giannis's brother but get quiet as a church mouse when it comes to Bronny who's even a worse prospect than him. None of the talking heads will just speak on what everyone can see about Bronny.
Tired old joke. He said it for Jack Haley, John Salley, Coach Jason Garrett etc
@@diggidy5367 EXACTLY. Im glad more and more people are starting to see the favoritism that has been going on with Lebron
LaGM drafting his son so he complain next season he has no help, and cry that his time is running out 🤡🤡🤡
Bronny gonna get the strap at home after games
Old school over the knee style 😂@@thebirdhasbeencharged
Very weird comment
LeBron is done winning championships and he knows it so now it’s all about getting his boy on the court and riding off into the sunset. He will leave the Lakers a complete and total mess but that will be for them to figure out.
The Lakers will surely draft Bronny in the upcoming 2024 NBA Draft. Bronny will be the future saviour of the Lakers! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
At this point call me up I’ll play on the lakers .I swear the nba is really gettin to the point where u gonna say bogus
This is the most respectful I've ever heard Skip talk about Lebron.
This is crazy
😂😅 he going to give the team 5ppg 3 assist 2 rebounds ... Every game
That's alot for him
They gonna be clutch garbage time tho 😤😤😤😤
Even those numbers are too high
Not bad as a rookie coming off the bench and he has the tools to be solid defender. You have to remember, JR like his dad are NOT scorers. They're both more magic johnson than they are michael jordan/kb. Don't expect +20ppg his first few years
In about 10 minutes per game. Not bad for a rookie
So happy paul joined the show, really needed him
Paul Pierce case for Bronny: “He’s not ready….but nepotism!”
"Couldn't play dead in a Cowboy Movie" 🤣
Bronny will be criticized more than his dad ever was and he will be living in a shadow he can’t prepare
Wow best comment I’ve seen here very great point!
And to add, his father is the most criticized NBA player ever. Lots of pressure, but Bronny could be a very good pro. Time will tell
Look at what happened to Zaire wade
No he wont be because not 1 person or team is expecting him to make an impact everyone was expecting bron to be the chosen one and he became but anyone who knows anything about basketball knows bronny aint projected to be anything at all
@@GarlandHardinwhat have u seen ever to say bronny could be a good pro? He has no jump shot has no passing skills cant rebound cant really defend so what does he do that u say he can be a good pro
I have been a Lakers fan all my life, if they draft bronny I will leave the Lakers and the NBA Forever.
This is the Lakers problem now, not preparing for the future. They spent all of the past years trying to build around lebron. Which didn't really get them anywhere outside of one bubble championship. If they draft bromny just to appease lebron. It will only make things worse for them, especially since he's not ready.
At this point they just need to hope AD is still in his prime when LeBron retires so they can get a rebuilding package for him.
If Bronny is undrafted or gets taken in the 50s and signed to the two-way spot of Harry Giles or Skylar Mays, it won't mean a whole lot beyond the symbolism. That said, it does hurt the image of the NBA being a meritocracy for the best players in the world. Bronny was the third best point guard on a mediocre USC team. He didn't play good enough to merit being drafted. If LeBron gets the Lakers to take him, it will look worse for everyone involved than the actual impact on the team.
No, they built around the idea of AD taking over as the Alpha... and that ain't working out for them at all .
Lakers should draft him if lebron wants that simple
The Lakers will surely draft Bronny in the upcoming 2024 NBA Draft. Bronny will be the future saviour of the Lakers! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Per Keyshawn, let's just violate all NBA tampering rules. 😂
11:00 😂😂 straight violated 😂😂😂😂
11:09 keyshawn said giannis could sign his brother, cousin & his cuzzin cuzzin four roster spots at the end of the bench for ur ppl nba politics is wild😂🤣😂
you guys are delusional. Westbrook was a stud at ucla. he played with the pros during the summer. everyone knew he had great athletics.
Great segment 😂
Bronny not even close 2 even Quinn Cook
Fr
The way black people need to hear this so we feel better about our fatherhood skills is pretty damn pathetic to me. Lebron is not a better dad because of this! It might make him worse!
Agreed!!💯💯
Dude shouldn’t even have been a D1 college player
McDonald's All American 😂😂😂😂
If he wasn't LeBron James son, he would've attended your local Division 2 school and still average less than 6ppg. He just doesn't have that dawg in him
Thank you! I just said something similar in my post!
😂😂😂
Now this is just hate. He's a D1 player. He got minutes since his freshman year on a stacked Sierra Canyon team. I don't think he's NBA ready. I'm not sure if he will develop into a solid NBA player. But he definitely is a D1 player. Heck Cal State Fullerton is a D1 school.
Who are the top 3 to 5 prospects for this year's draft? Maybe talk about that cause this is embarrassing.
Westbrook 6'5 ... This guy knows nothing about basketball 😂😅
🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️can’t believe these morons are getting paid
Bronny has a ceiling Lenny Cooke too tho 😂
Agreed he’s cringe to listen to. Other day he said Lebron hasn’t posterised anybody 😂
Too be fair him standing next harden there like the same height
@warrenharvey He technically hasn't. Most of those highlights are him dunking on defenders that are just trying to draw a charge.
We've never seen something like this before. 😮
That's why it should happen. I hope the Lakers draft him. I will be watching the drama. This is pure entertainment.
Gianni’s brother caught a mean stray 😂😂😂😂
first dude that came to mind when he said some people shouldn't be in the league right now 😂😂
His brother can really CLAP 👏🏾, he Claps great 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm good with the lakers taking a couple of years off to see if bronny pans out🤣
Michael Jordan's Son avergaed 13 Points a Game and was no-where close to being drafted and MJ was OK with it but Brony with 4 Points a Game is ready to play with His Dad 😂
Make it make sense
westbrick is a solid 6'4. he grew while in the league
"He couldn't play dead in a cowboy movie" 😂😂😂
Who tf gave Paul Pierce an analyst job lol
If Bronny clinch a draft spot, this would make no sense regarding the ones who desserve it
What in the make a wish foundation scenario is Pierce talking about 😂
"Couldn't play dead in a cowboy movie" 😂😂
why is bronny getting taken about more than players that are way better? who's the #1 draft pick gonna be? \
if he was healthy and played all season he would average more for sure do not forget he was just a freshman
Facts 💯 not evening going in the first round smfh
@@djbigreignand don’t forget he had nba training his entire life and couldn’t even start on a bad team 😅
Bronny is a 6,2 guard with sloppy handles and avg (relative) athleticism. He’s unselfish and a good defender. If he were 6,5- 6,6 he could be a good hustle guy but honestly he’s just not an NBA player.
Blessings you guys ✌️👍
Nah. The gannis brother hate was nasty work 😂
Jeanie Buss turning the Lakers into a clown organization and I’m surprised to see Paul Pierce saying this is so great.
Not gonna lie, this was a fantastic show today. those 3 guys, Skip, Paul & Keyshawn. Great segment IMOP
He is the bizarro version of Lebron.. Me am Superman!!.. 🤦🏾♂️🤣🤣
“Couldn’t play dead, in cowboy move.” -KJ 💀
If Lebron ever talks about fairness and opportunity, remember his son (who frankly isn't a pro level player) will be drafted in the NBA bc of him.
This kid is going to have a heart stopping realization in the NBA! He is NOT good enough!
Keyshawn needs a wardrobe guy Jesus dude
“His brother can really clap” was wild.
keyshawn's FADE is the only notable thing he brings to this table
He also has a nice 👔 TIE... Wit his Grandpa's Tie Clip ! That's it! 🙏🏾💪🏾🏀👺
So basically, the Lakers are willing to flush a draft pick simply so Lebron can play with his untalented son. So much for their future. 😂
Sounds bout right
Keyshawn, you don't know, gawd damn Thang 😂
Everybody is afraid to say the TRUTH about this SMH
This kid is a bum!!! Stop with this nonsense please
Jack Haley catching strays lol😂
Great take Paul Pierce
everyone saying the NIL will help keep players in college yeah people who aren’t even ready are going to the NBA draft so that’s false LOL
His dad is LeBron James I don’t think he’s scraping for money lmao
It’s only Bronny bro. He’s already rich and his dad is about to retire
It’s really helped with women’s basketball tho.
Love that Mitchell idea to LAL from Paul
teams need to quit sleeping on Antonio Reeves for Kentucky dropped 20+ a game shoots the 3 great and is great inside scorer.. Reeves would embarrass Bronny lmao
I even think cam spencer is better and he has no chance at the league
THANK YOU KEYSHAWN FOR BEING HONEST. I wish the best for Bronny but we don't have to lie for him. I don’t think he's NBA ready YET. And that's okay 💯
Keyshawns best take by far😂😂
Keyshawn crazy
Bronny James 😂🤣🤦🏼♂️
Crazy situation
It would be a thrill for some guys to get that 15th man off the bench spot, to say "I'm in the NBA", and make life changing money. Instead, Lebron's filthy rich son, a son that's no better than an Uber driver hoopin' a the local Y gets the roster spot.
“he couldn’t play dead 💀 in a cowboy 🤠 movie” - KJ 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Do we still need the coffee mug charade? No one ever uses them.
I don't get this argument. How would going back to college be better to get you prepared and ready for the NBA??? If you are comparing it to actually being in the NBA??? When college games are totally different from NBA games.
1st W take for Paul pierce ever 💯
Paul and Key go well together. A football and basketball guy both from south central LA
They cooked Thanasis at the end 😂😂
Keyshawn is funny at times too
11:20 skip ..giannis brothers can really clap 👏👏👏💀😭🤣😂
Skip so mad at Westbrook he even hating on his height lol
Key gotta get his facts together you would’ve passed wit 6’3😂
The lack of confidence is deafening !
“His brother can really clap” 😂😂😂😂😂 skip wild
Who are these " a lot of dudes " that shouldn't be playing in the League according to Keyshawn
11:19 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
What I want to know is how can keystone Johnson say that when, He was a wide receiver he knows nothing about basketball like that I never did understand how could these so called analysts talk about something they didn't play but watch 🤦🏿
Keyshawn is in trouble now
.
Skip says lebron has earned the right to play along his son but in reality his son hasn’t earned the right to play with his dad lol. This script has to end lol
“His brother can really clap” 😅 11:18
He is going to be a jag.
They Wildin … discounting 2nd round picks … I remember one year PAC 12 player of the year was the last player drafted
