The Lakers arent a serious franchise anymore
If he's picked 57th I don't see the issue? Players that late usually out the league in a few years
I'm old enough to remember Ken Griffey and Griffey Jr playing on the same team
It was friggin awesome
What was awesome about it? I worked with my mom at Chevy's lol.
@@jonb2756and you were probably a poor employee which is why we don't remember u 🥲
@@JAHDCypha you remember good employees from Chevy's? What you said makes no sense lol. How embarrassing.
@@jonb2756 Why are you asking me a blatantly dishonest question?
Did you and your Mommy hit back to back homeruns at Chevy's???
lol
you really think he has NBA basketball 🤔
Lakers wouldn’t mind drafting Bronny for historical reference but I think they’d rather sign him undrafted like they did with Shaq and Pippens son
Won’t happen
He’s not going undrafted my guy
Who knows until individual workouts happen. Let’s just take it one step at a time. I’m just referencing what lakers have done in the past for royalty.
Someone will draft him for fun and for history
@@nbacontents354And for LEVERAGE!
I never heard of this guy, but he’s great. Seems super cool, knowledgeable, and passionate. Great listen!
You can tell bryce really nice dude! Love the work! Keep it up
must be Mom's DNA
Yeah, I don't think Bronny is ready for the NBA and he could make a huge mistake by coming out too early! If the Lakers draft Bronny to keep LeBron from leaving then the front office will show that Buss and Pelinka are not in charge of the franchise.
I like this guys energy! Great guest.
Happy for Bronny he had a great combine
We still hate the Pistons because of what happened in '04!
U damn right
@@beedeepee9418not really the bad boy pistons were worse 04 they earned it I like them more than nuggets
@@javarzshinall9396wasn’t alive for bad boys but I’ll always have some hate for tht 04 piston team
Them pistons sheeesh
Try going back to the late 80s
LBJ back to CLE!!!!
That would be the best thing to happen for the Lakers.
The only real issue, as I understand it, is that he's 6'1". He would be on the very small side for an NBA player. If you're 6'1", you basically have to have point guard level ball skills and run the point. Even for a shooting guard, 6'1" is way too small. He would have to be a solid point guard to ever start in the NBA, imho.
The Trevor Lane podcast has versatility 😊
I understand people wanting to see Bron and Bronny okay against each other. But i think as a father it'll be cooler to play with my son vs others. Plus, i know our chemistry on the court would be crazy.
yeh, Lakers draft Bronny, they will hire JJ, and Bronny will be inserted into the starting lineup before the all star break.
Imagine if bronny has a similar career development like Himmy Butler, where he used to be a defensive player who had to develop his scoring, but eventually turned into a very scary scorer and defender
He's not 6'6. Damn casuals have wild imagination.
@rtoujr bruh, you acting like i stated a fact, lmao. Chill out. I'm just having fun thinking of crazy comparisons jeez
@@rtoujr he said IMAGINE
and its based on height now? lots of small guards rght now WHO can guard well tho
WHO-IN-THE HELL IS HIMMEY BUTLER ??.
Did Himmy Butker have heart issues?
Bronny is not Ready to play in the NBA Now.
Neither are Schifino, Maxwell Lewis
💯💯💯Bryce.
and for bronny; he reminds me A.carus in most ways. i know he is smaller but still if he put work and develop , he can be solid 3 and d front court rotation part. maybe not now but soon in time.
This whole video is hilarious 😂 I remember a couple months back during a live stream I said Bronny in the G League will be fun, and Trevor laughed off my SUPER CHAT and didn’t even entertain it🎉😂
i know its gonna need another level of puttin work , but it would be real good episode if u analyze draft class with at least 30 player ,going by name .
Bronny is a pg who can't play the point. Multiple NBA scouts at the combine say he's not draft worthy.
Elite
Name those scouts.
I heard the opposite they said he should get more development
I heard the opposite they said he should get more development
@@javarzshinall9396 needing development doesn't mean you need to be drafted. His team doesn't seem to think he's going to get the development he needs in college. He can go to the g-league.
I have a theory that was sparked by LeBron’s appearance at the Cavs’ game. Bron showed his name is still good in CLE so LAL trades for Mitchell using the 17th pick. CLE uses that pick to draft Bronny and now have another “LeBron James” in CLE. Creates a great story for the franchise and opens up another follow up story if Bron finishes his career in CLE after 2 more years in LA (hopefully capturing another title).
But Cleveland is too good to play Bronny, so is he going to the G-league in Cleveland? I doubt it. He lives in LA.
He's 6'1, not playing that well in scrimmages. He should be a point guard with his size, but he's an undersized shooting guard that has been a liability on defense in the small college/scrimmage sample size we've seen. If someone drafts him rn as he is, it's in hopes of getting his dad in the final year of his nba career. Hoping he can develop more without all the pressure thrown on him rn
I was not expecting that dudes voice lmao
Why would a grown ass man want to be on the road and share the locker room with his son? As a Laker fan it is getting ridiculous how the Lakers are even considering making it happen.
2004 was on the Lakers more than anyone else.
No, it was on the team that beat them, there was no one play here or there, so stop. We don't talk about the phantom foul in 1988 so knock it off and lets move on
It was. Kobe didn’t play to his status in most of those games. Shaq was getting old. Role players weren’t as good anymore.
@@truckerstar5830 The other team had something to do with that, don't you think? The team that has changed how the game is played today. A historical defensive team.
4-1 ?? If you dont knock it off.
@@randybriggs2623 4-1 doesn’t say the whole story. Most of those games were decided in the last 5 minutes of the 4th Q. That team was a doffensive juggernaut but they didn’t change not nba history. They got beat the year after by San Antonio in the finals. Beat by Miami and beat by Cleveland the following years.
Derozan for the MLE and trade for mitchell and 18 on the way
If we can get Jonas or a big like him as well let's go 🔥
@@morethanmedia3317 maybe like an xavier tilman or an andre drummond
Love this move. This would be great for Lakers.
Derozan is not signing for no mle goofy casual
Bulls offering him $40M a yr for 2 years and hes gonna go to the dog shit lakers for $13M and one year del just lose out on $67M to be on another loser hahaha. And get Mitchell, oh yeah a top 20 nba player you can just get him with dog shit ssets to trade that wouldnt outbid 10 other teams after him much less anywhere near the best offers. You lakers fans are o god damn dumb its not even real
At his best Bronny could be a Jrue type player, which would be a perfect fit if he was ready now
LA should get a dependable and reliable big. Pls LA think big!!!
As a future laker team i say lets go for the spida trade if possible if its trae please please lakers dont do it wait down the road
The Lakers need a center, so they can drop AD back down to power forward, they should take a chance on Zach Edey with the 17th pick.
I have a question why would bronny go back to college when he can get trained by the best trainers in the world in the nba by age 22 he can be atleast a drue holiday type player
Hmmm, sounds like Scottie Pippen Jr
I just dont see how he is better than Skylar Mays. LA don’t need a 6”1 guy
He wouldn’t be 6’1 that was without shoes
Austin Reeves was not drafted but turned out to be pretty good 😊
sorry he is not Austin Reeves
Reaves was going to be drafted in second round but told teams not to so he could sign with the Lakers in free agency. So AR chose to be undrafted.
Tayshaun Prince in the house
Nobody mentions that even though it’s a huge risk on Bronny’s future it’s a very smart IQ play from the James family. Lebron Sr. has (from what the narrative) control and leverage over the Lakers organization to theoretically get whatever he desires and to help out Bronny and himself the best that he can. I ultimately think that if everything aligns with the coaching to the potential trades in the offseason, especially if the Lakers go through and draft Bronny or he gets drafted by another organization before the Lakers can get him, I think Bron actually won’t go play with his son. Both their presence and portrayal send the sports networks and organizations talking and provide monetary gain. It’ll be interesting to see.
Still see a slept on CJ McCullough with B James
Another year in college wouldnt mean a thing. College basketball is a completely different game. He won’t get the touches or opportunities anymore of less than in the Gleague or in small role like Max did his first year playing garbage minutes in the NBA.
Going back to college wont do much for a guy with mid range talent .... He might as well get that in the league and for him ...he knows he will get a huge push playing his first few years on the same team as his old man ... and we all know lebron is on the clock .... Bronny knows what he is doing and so does lebron .. just think how good is he really going to be ? Maybe great but currently him playing with his old man AND working out with him everyday as his teacher is his BEST bet
Why they always say go back to College to improve? Does college program develop players better than the G league or pro basketball?
Bronny looks like he’s got NBA caliber hops. Second round before the Lakers pick, really? Obviously, an opt in and trade of Sr would ensue and the Lakers should oblige. Meanwhile let’s talk about what the Lakers post LeBron should start like: AD, Donovan, Bruce Brown.
How worse could that 17th pick get??? Just think about who we drafted last season for the same pick 😂😂😂
A guy who shot 46% from the 3 in the G league ?
@@Centermass007 G league numbers don't mean nothing🤣🤣🤣Every time JHS touched the court this season it hurt to watch, especially when you realize Jaquez, Podz, and Whitmore all got drafted right after him and all were NBA ready. Lakers should stop worrying about which players are Kobe fans and just draft players that are NBA ready. Not saying they should pick Bronny but damn they missed out big time last year
@@CHIEFRICKSOSAyou’re right
The Lakers have lost their way big time.
Bronny has Athleticism and his shot has good form he is good on defense we rushing his greatness he had A heath scare A year ago and most can’t and didn’t even return to the court Bronny will be better than what we see right now once he gets more comfortable his greatness will shine through at that point he will remind me of Kevin Johnson yes I said it here 1st see sometimes we can’t see the forest for the trees it’s hard to perform with all these eyes on you once he gets comfortable watch out guys
Bronny will at best be a role player👀🏆🤍🏀🎥🎬🥁
Scottie Pippin Jr and Bronny is better than JHS
Bronny, I both respect and admire you from a distance. I say "from a distance" because I obviously don't know you. But what I see in your public persona is worthy of being respected. You project an air of maturity and composure beyond your years. And that is especially noteworthy being raised in the spotlight of celebrity and in the long shadow of a king. It is because you are running the race of life so well that I'm moved to share a few ideas with you that are dear to me.
There is a psychological window in our growth that is rich in potential for personal development and self actualization. If taken advantage of, it can lead to your being a more well-rounded adult. That window is about age 17 to 24, your college years. And indeed the window is intimately connected to college or university. As full of promise as that window is, the one unfortunate feature about it is once the window is closed it can't be reopened.
During one's late teens and early twenties, you're not a kid, but neither are you an adult. Yes, those years can be turbulent with insecurities in your abilities to meet life's demands, fears of failure, awkwardness in relations with the opposite sex. In this, nature helps us because the mind is more disposed to deal with those existential issues than any other period in life. And there is no better place to work through those issues than in college.
Many would argue, myself included, that the greater value of college is less about academic or vocational education and more about emotional education. And emotional education at its core is about socialization and self discovery. As you undoubtedly are finding out in your first year at USC, you will be meeting people from different walks of life, different countries, different socio-economic backgrounds, different beliefs and world views. The opportunity is there for you to learn social skills that will pay dividends for a lifetime. And if you really have your thinking cap on, you'll learn not to fumble the ball in the presence of knock-dead gorgeous girls 😊.
Who are you, Bronny? No, I'm not talking about the superficial stuff. You are the son of; you live at; you like this, not that. The human psyche can be favorably compared to unexplored country, the discovery of which can be deeply personal and transformative. University is a safe, but dynamic environment to strap on your backpack and start exploring. What are your core values and principles that guide your decisions and actions? College is the place to help you develop and refine them. Uncover your natural talents and skills, as you are so much more than a basketball player. Learn the areas where you struggle and need improvement. Find what you enjoy doing, even without external rewards. Learn how to manage and express your emotions healthily.
Oh, I could go on extolling the emotional benefits of college, but the bottom line is this. University provides experiences at the time the mind or psyche is most ready to learn from them.
Bronny, my hope for you is that you stay in school. Because at the end of the day, you will be a better basketball player -- because you will be a better man.
Well said.. Education is forever..
Staying in school doesn't make you a better person. You're a better person by how you are raised & grounded. And just b/c you're following your dreams doesn't mean you don't continue your education. Bonny, follow your dreams!!!
@@feliciawilliams5973 An education is something that you can have forever. He can play college ball and get an education. I think what the gentleman was getting at is that if you get your education, it's something you can fall back on. I don't think the younger James is going to long for anything in life,but an education is forever. He looks like a well raised young man, but he can play ball AND get an education. Professional basketball will be there in 3,4 yrs.. only a handful of men have had the privilege of playing professional basketball. An education gives you something to fall back on,an ace in the hole ⛳ if you will.
I agree, Prince Bronny is a cool cat.
Lol 20 years in and LeBron still got leverage wow beast mode
IMAGINE CLE DRAFT HIM AT 20 ???
Stop dreaming 😊
If they want James back....
Bronnie James should not be a subject on a Lakers channel
What if he gets injured? I’d rather get injured in the NBA than in college tf yu meaaannn 😭😭😭
Nahh we good. Still think we going to make it happen to get him 😊
Draft experts saying he could go 54th is hilarious. Someone trying to extort something extra from the Lakers(e.g. 2030 2nd rounder) to move up. I don't think it's smart to accept. He probably is not getting drafted at all in 2024 without the Lebron spectre.
Bronny will be future of the league his jus a great guy considering his dad billionaire his so humble🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫡🫡🫡🫡🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I'm a long time laker fan and don't want either of them on my laker team. Labron would still be behind a lot of players all time scorers if he would have went to college. Not a fan.
dont draft lebron jr
hes not generating buzz its the media
BRONNY PORTLAND, SPURS OR CLIPPERS (sleeper)
What if bronny on the nba 2k cover
Wonder if they would be talking about someone who never played in the NBA if his father wasn't royalty. Didn't play all that well in college either. It's good to be the King's..... Son...
This guy should stick to the pistons saying Bonnie James a NBA player on his own merits 😂😂.
What does he need to prove in college? He is not gonna be a main guy on any roster.. noe is his best chance since its a weak draft
laker nation turning into espn with the Bronny hype
you mean the ignorant fans that LeEGO brought with him. Long time Laker Fans, the ones who KNOW the game, ALL RAIL AGAINST EVERYTHING CONCERNING LeEGO.
Big facts
I think the Celtics have the 54th pick right ahead of the Lakers, so there's that....
I’d take bronny at 17th if he/bron wants that.
They basically wasted a 17th pick for nothing last year.
Bronny will be better than JHS based on pedigree alone.
So if the Lakers wasted last year's 17th. pick on JHS, why would you want them to waste this year's pick on Bronny?
@@fattony9227 to make bron happy,
If that’s what he wants it’s not a waste.
Wasting picks doesn’t bother me, the draft is a crap shoot and we’re just not picking good players like we used to.
If it makes bron happy it’s not a waste.
And I already said I think bronny is gonna be better than JHS.
Gotta love Bron Haters.. Doing everything in their power to get the Lakers back to the 2012-2019 Lakers where they couldn’t even win 25 Games a Season 😂😂😂😂
Bronny Lakers needs you
what the Lakers need, among other things, is to jettison the ignorant fans that LeEGO brought with him.
Lavar got all 3 of his sons into the NBA. Why couldn't lebaron do it lol
I think teams are bluffing to play the lakers into drafting him early
Bronny showed nothing at the combine. Take your butt back to college. Going to get eaten alive in the NBA.
MRC
Like Austin Reaves?
Right now he's a better defender than Reaves.
And who the fuck are you lol 😆
Everyone is over reacting because it is LeBron’s son now when you draft anyone do your homework even if you have the number 1 pick because everybody in this draft can be a hit or miss situation!
Why go back to college? When you can get trained like a Pro. Access to professional facilities and trainers.
He has that at home,no?
It just seems like Lebrons dream is not turning out the way he thought it would. Its too early for Bronny, LA needs to start focusing on the draft again and start securing the future for the post Lebron era. I see Lebron loving it but not the Lakers and it seems like Bronny wants to earn his playtime you know. I dont think he would take a handout to get pulled out of the g league but you never know.
Y'all really need to stop lying and hyping him up. He aint turning no heads and most scouts said he is too small and needs to really work on his skills. They are also saying only way he gets signed is a two way contract. They wouldnt draft him.
He isn’t turning any heads.
U might wanna not believe a scout or any executive as we all know they will never show their cards
@@Darkthug06 he can't play the point and he's too small at the 2. He can't really shoot unless he's open. He barely shoots 70% from the line. He is a switch matchup nightmare.
I said the same thing about Brunson being too small in the playoffs but he’s dropped 40 five times so far. I think if he plays it’s because of defense
Yeah this video is bad
I'm in agreement with Bryce in feeling that Bronny needs to stay in college for another year. He's strictly a role player at this point who will spend his time in the G League.
Laker nation
Bronny getting drafted by Lakers? No thanks. But won’t be surprised if Lakers drafted him, because the management team itself (Pelinka, Rambiis , Jeanie et al) is the height of nepotism and entitlement, rather than merit.
You don’t think the Lakers need an athletic guard who could defend and hit a wide open three
I think the Lakers need to buy a high 2nd round pick to get Brony
I don't think he's worthy of the 55th. pick either. I will be thrilled if another team drafts him and saves the Lakers from themselves.
Lost respect for this reporting on Bronny James who didn’t even average 12pts in high school. Disrespecting all the other top prospects is crazy
It's funny because the Lakers already wasted their pick for JHS just because he's a "Kobe guy", that bum is even worse than Bronny lmao
OK, the Lakers wasted a draft pick on JHS. Do you really want them to waste another draft pick on Bronny too?
Nah, we picked JHS because he’s a Michigan guy where pelinka went to college.
Pelinka is obsessed with his Alma mater.
Let the Buss brothers do the draft picks.
However we did hire pelinka because he’s “Kobe’s guy”. And that used to be enough for me, but I’m beginning to doubt pelinkas ability to create a successful team.
it's funny calling a young player a "bum" after his 1st year plague with injuries and coach didn't even gave him a chance. LOL shows you don't know basketball
@@alchemyproductions439 max Christie is the player who got screwed by the coach. JHS couldn’t get on the floor because he’s not good.
It’s just that simple
Fire pelinka
I hope he, LeBron and AD go to the Cavs where the fans will appreciate them
Bandwagon fans alert!!
I cant wait til annoying bron fans are gone
@@Adam-tw8yd We're done with the 90s.
@Adam-tw8yd Wasn't lakers basketball beautiful the last 6 years with Kobe? No playoffs, just collecting lottery picks. What a mess LeBron was left to clean up.
@@CreativeBigL Lebrons a big crybaby i dont like Jeanie catering to him they better not hire JJ
The Joker is MVP VOICES are Exposed.
fuck it just draft him at 17 for the memes
If he go back to college he really not getting drafted
LeBron is being a true dad he fighting for his son every way he can. All guys questioning it but will u you not help ur kid succeed?
More fun to see Lebron plays against his son on the court 😂
Lol 👍
If LeBron and his son Bronny played for the Lakers, it would be awesome but will it happen?
The worry isnt lebron leaving to join his son. The real problem would be lebron storming into Rob Palinka's office and demand that they trade for Bronny. And they will overpay for Bronny.
i think it's sad that bronny, with lebron's genes and having access to his dad's wealth of basketball knowledge and training, can only muster to be a 2nd round pick at best. i'd be highly disappointed with bronny if i was lebron. the kid doesn't have to be a #1 pick like his dad, but at least be a top 15 pick.
I can believe this i a topic of discussion. Who cares just trade Lebron and get deeper and younger.
What is the point of drafting him if you think he is gong spend a lot time in G league
Keeping him from going somewhere else.
Come on....Overrated, Overhyped.
I hope he gets drafted by Cleveland. Hopefully LeBrick will follow his son back to Cleveland.
Dlo opts out.
Lakers would have about 35 million to use to sign players.
Tobias Harris 3 yrs 40 million.
DeMar 3 yrs 60 million.
Valanciunas MLE 3 yrs 36.
CP3 mid level 1 yr 5 million.
Offer Reaves, Rui, Vincent, JHS 3 unprotected 1st Rd picks for Murray and Bogdanovic.
Starting lineup :
Murray
Bogdanovic
DeMar
AD
Valanciunas
Bench:
Vanderbilt
Harris
Christie
CP3
Clown casuals. Love it.
Building losers. Lmao
😂😂😂😂 Not even a play-in team.
Didn’t even start at sc. no way for this hype
teams will be like ˝We will draft Brony unles you trade us Austin for pick we will use on Brony˝
If someone is foolish enough to draft Bronny, (besides the fools running the Lakers), then we'll see exactly how much of a family man LeEGO is. Is his desire to play with his son larger than his mercenary ways? Will he choose to sign a massive extension (one that will certainly be offered if the Lakers draft Bronny), or will he bolt to the team that drafts him???
Sadly, he won't have to make that decision, Jeannie Buss doesn't want to lose her orgasmic making cash cow. Phil Jackson must feel quite inadequate as a man, seeing Jeannie fawning all over LeEGO.
This is going to end up a disaster for the lakers.
No thanks. He’s small. Please.
Austin is small
@@Royalwar0305 Austin plays point and can handle the ball. Plus Austin 6” 4’ and can shoot.
@kidmarine7329 so can Bronny & AR don't handle it all that well either
Bruh , lakers didn’t really want him right 😂
Bronny first year will be in g league
Stop we shouldn’t draft him. We had a better version of bronny in Scotty pippen Jr. and he went undrafted.
He needs own identity. If I was Lakers I would not draft Bronny James. It going get thrown up in face a lot when makes mistakes
