  • Bronny James told the media he never really thought about playing in the NBA alongside his dad. Maybe he should have told LeBron that; the Lakers might be in better shape. Little LeBron was the 55th overall pick in the NBA, but with all the hype, you’d think he was the team's biggest off-season acquisition, and he may actually be. Jason and Steve Kim discuss the nepotism in L.A. and why it may be the factor that’s preventing the Lakers from landing top-tier free agents. Who wants to compete against King James' little prince? The media is blaming management, but the fans know who is really making the casting calls for Hollywood’s NBA franchise. Plus, Whitlock makes the case for Angel Reese as WNBA rookie of the year over Caitlin Clark. Yes, you read that right. Do believers have a biblical obligation to participate in elections? In Tennessee Harmony, Virgil Walker and Gabriel Rench of “CrossPolitic” join the show to discuss the role of Christians in the political process.

    CC3 & Angel Reese:
    1st: They play 2 different positions. The PG position is more like playing QB where the PF in the WNBA is like playing EDGE in football. The assignment is simple.
    2. CC3s shooting droughts are real BUT she makes up for it double digit Assists and just under 10 Defensive Rebounds per game. As a matter of fact, her Defensive Rebounds are just a few shy of Angel Reese's.

    I thought maybe this was some kind of Make A Wish thing at first. You know, like Bronny was dying because of his heart issue and his dream was to play in the NBA so his dad, overwrought with grief, moved Heaven and Earth to get Bronny drafted into the NBA before he passes away. Then I remembered the Lakers also hired JJ Redick as their coach so it appears they're just really shitty at running a basketball team.

It would make a lot of sense Lebron trying his best to play with him on the floor. If that ends up being the case I can’t even be mad at him. But then I thought Lebron wouldn’t be able to help himself and would have said something already by now but who knows

    I think that it is sad that Lebron didn’t encourage his son to go back to USC. Bronny is a great athlete who doesn’t have the experience necessary to utilize it. He is an NBA talent who should have gone back to school . He is a poster child for a kid who could use at least one more year . The fact that his father encouraged him to leave school early for his own legacy is selfish and ill advised regardless if he ultimately makes it in the league or not.

  • @igloo2158
    @igloo2158 12 дней назад +1

    Online betting houses are rooting against Reece for ROTY and here’s why. Reece opened up at 33-1 to win and CC was the big favorite offering little value. Everyone has been loading up on Reece just because of that huge value. Angel is now only at 4-1 due to the massive betting on her and her rebounds. If she wins, they’ve stated they will take on “substantial losses”. I took Reece at 10-1 recently for a decent chunk just for the value. I’m a huge CC fan, but Reece winning ROTY won’t hurt my feelings. Wish I would’ve noticed the 33-1 opening. 1k bet and your return is 34k netting 33k. Not bad for what basically could be a coin flip at the end of the season.

    The problem with Jason's take on Caitlin's "efficiency" is he is conceptualizing efficiency using the NBA as a reference point. The WNBA is not like that at all. The league average FG% in the NBA last year was 48%. In the WNBA it's 44%. The "Goat" Diana Taurasi has a career FG% of 42.5%.
    It's just an inefficient league overall. You have to remember these are below-the-rim players. The only players shooting consistently above 40% are centers and power forwards (i.e., players scoring from within 5 feet of the basket).
    You say that you would vote Reese over Clark for Rookie of the Year because Caitlin is inefficiently shooting only 39.1% from the field on the year. Meanwhile, Angel Reese's numbers look even worse in context because as a power-forward she's shooting only 39.7% from the field despite taking the majority of her shot attempts near the basket.
    Of Caitlin's shots per game, 66% come from three. Reese has not taken a single three, and only a handful of shots further out than 10-feet, and yet she's only shooting 0.7% better than a point guard,🤣

    The same ESPN reporters who are all over racism and sexism completely ignore nepotism. There were 58 players drafted and there is no way Bronny James was one of the top 58 players eligible for the draft and maybe not even among the top 58 at his position. I would be surprised if any guard in history who averaged less than 5 points a game has been drafted.

And the game today was actually one of the few WNBA games I had fun watching.

    Angel Reese has had a slightly better rookie season than Clark because of Clark’s turn overs. I am glad Whitlock can finally see it. Reese is not an efficient offensive player but she is a beast in those boards. She scores off of her own misses and rebounds. Reese is more of a finished product than Clark right now. Reese will become more efficient on offense and that’s it. However Clark’s upside is tremendous and next year she will dominate the WNBA when she gets a little stronger and develops better ball handling skills from concentrating on Basketball full time for the first time in her life.
