Nah I’m usually on LBJ’s side when he talks against the media but he’s the one that has made it public how much he wants his son to be in the NBA and that Bronny was better than some current NBA players. Now it’s “let him be a kid” sir the pressure started with you.
Just a father having faith in his kid. Big Baller did the same lol even went as far as saying his kids were better than MJ but you can't get upset at opinions and a father speaking highly of their kids.
Niggas would find anything to hate on another successful black man period smh sad
Agreed!
@@B.Carter2345 I remember Lavar catching a lot of heat. But at least Lavar was consistent. On one hand, LeBron constantly talks up Bronny and says delusional stuff like him being better than half the NBA and being fit to play on the Lakers. On the other hand, he talks about not wanting to put pressure on his son and not wanting him to go through what he did.
Seems to me LeBron just wants to have it both ways and thinks everyone is stupid enough not to call him out.
Bruh…..the one thing Lebron has done throughout his career was CONTROL THE NARRATIVE with the media. That way, he gets all of the credit when he wins but little to no blame when he loses.
ironic how lebron is saying earned not given while bronny is out there getting espn highlights on a simple dunk while USC is down big 😂
I'm just so sick and tired of mismanaged nepotism.
Yup lol. USC gets more coverage than some top 25 teams
Fr 2 points but will be a thumbnail 😂 over Collier who drops 20.
@@user-db6ce1uw3dyeah and it’s not like he earned his nil deals he’s 1 in most payed because he Lebron son. Not hating just saying it’s hypocrisy saying earned not given✌️
But I thought lebron tweeted bronny was better than a lot of people in the league already??
She did
Clearly you either don’t have kids or you don’t love them enough to hype them up😂
Yeah, he said half of the NBA.
I just wrote the same thing 😂😂😂😂 on point ☝🏼 Bro 👌🏼
@@BrocktaviusKingofNFChow you know sis?
The irony of LeBron saying let the kid be a kid.
The irony of you weirdos hating on a kid
It's not hating on a kid ya dumbazzzzzz soy boy 😂 it's because one moment @@fredooogoated8335Lechina Lecrybaby Lerazist James is saying how bronny is better than half of the NBA 😂😂😂😂 so shut da f up
It was Lebron that said his son could play in the NBA right now.
@@fredooogoated8335saying he isn’t nba ready isn’t hating 🤦🏻
@@corderraman Just a father having faith in his kid. Big baller did the same lol
Bronny is NOT an NBA-level player right now!
Sounds like he's perfect for the Wizards!
Better defender than anyone on the Wizards 😅
You mean the Pistons!
@@SocraticMind89 the Wizards are worse than the Pistons. They’ve only won 1 more game but have more veteran players. The pistons have had several close games slip away because of young player mistakes (or in the case of last night, a bad non-call).
We will take him
Pistons*
Lebron literally told the world bronny better then nba players right now now it’s let him be
People keep bringing up Lavar Ball but give him props…he successfully guided TWO of his sons to NBA lottery picks without nearly as many resources available to him as LeBron has! Lonzo was drafted #2 and LaMelo was drafted #3! That’s INSANE!
Preach
LeBron deleted the tweet? “Now that I rhink about it, yeah, my kid’s just not that good. Delete.”
😂
Y’all are giving this kid so much room. Just say it how it is “ he sucks”
😂😂😂Facts
Everyone wants him to be Lebron jr even more literally than it already is but he won’t be
Probably can beat me and you one on one
6 mill playing college ball?…I wouldn’t be ready for the NBA either😂!🤙🏾
😂😂😂😂yup
My son can play on this lakers team right now....
""Not 5. Not 6. Not 7"🤣🤣🤣
bronny james made his dad eat his words... IM A BIG FAN lmao keep playin boy
He suffered cardiac arrest before the season let's not forget that. The fact that he's even out there playing is remarkable
🧢 cap
No.. what's remarkable is they're a ton of Democrat 🤡 s who got a COVID vaccine before it was tested for the necessary 7 years like ALL medications have to be! And that's why the BOY had a cardio infraction! You also were vaxxed dumbazzzzzzz
Okay. He still isn’t ready for the nba
@@Dvg920 All he needs is a little more development. Let's see after a full and "knock on wood" healthy season.
you belive in that ahaahaha
Bra people judging a kid that just got out the hospital for a heart condition. Could have possibly lost his life, still looking like he’s getting back up to speed and getting back adjusted to the game mentally. Bro people be weird af! Let the kid have fun and enjoy the journey! If he makes it to the NBA then he makes it if he don’t then he don’t. Life goes on 💯
Could really see that people are f*cked up, if you read this comment section.
Yea so the doctors cleared him but YOU actually kno better than they do you right …
Not NBA-ready? He's not even China-ready!
Not even Africa ready.
😂😂😂
Why? JJ Barea made it in the league. Bol Bol is in the league and so is Boban. But Bronny James cant make it?
@@Dhorpatanjj barea is better than bronny that says a lot
Not even WNBA ready.
Delonte's grandson is a Shanghai Sharks in the future. Book it!
He's not even a Pac-12 caliber player. He should have humbled himself and gone somewhere like Long Beach State or Cal State Fullerton. He's not good enough to start as a freshman in major college basketball.
“He had cardiac arrest!”
Okay, he still isn’t ready for the NBA
I live in York, England ,but, travel to Liverpool the most.
Bronny may need all 4 yrs of development before he’s ready. This added pressure is insane. Bronny not ready for league and LBJ is not worth contract extension with the lakers. I know LBJ wanna play with his son but he may have to wait 3-4 yrs atleast. I doubt Bron would wanna play that long especially if teams are kinda hesitant on giving him a contract at his age.
lebron dont got much time, its now or never. bronny needs to get drafted asap
@@draco2xx that would be selfish of Lebron..
He will never be ready he is by far one of the worst college players in the league he should just retire and live the good like
Lebron should go play with him at USC…
And what should you do,continue to sound like a bitter woman
Never forget.. the "king" 😂 said on Twitter "My son bees better den mo den half of dez jive azz playas!" 😂😂😂
Idk what’s more cringe…u or lebron it might be a tie..
This guy Lehoe was saying 2 months ago that his son could play and help the lakers right now.Also said a year ago that bronny was better than a lot of guys in league.We can obviously see that the kid is not NBA material.Now Lehoe wants to blame everyone but himself for putting the spotlight on a kid that’s just not good enough.I kind of feel bad for the kid but Lehoe is to blame
self awareness has never been a strong point of lebron. at least not when it concerns his image or his legacy negatively
😂😂😂Got me trippin on Lehoe😂
Brony is gonna wake up rich. He is not tripping about mock drafts. He making six million bucks in college.
Once he grows tired of that money, he'll realize that he has no accomplishments of his own. His selection to the McDonald's All American team was undeserved. He is taking someone else's spot as USC when he should be playing low-major or division II college basketball.
@@RobbieStacks90 sports isn't everything man. he can be accomplished in other fields.
Exactly. He's not like his dad who grew up poor and had the right motivation to strive and become the legend that he is now.
You must be rather dense to think that money is the sole measurement of success
The question wasn’t if he’s rich. It’s if he’s nba ready
Just because your dad is in sport or any other profession does not mean you have to be too. Most importantly, when your dad is such a legend, do not try to follow his steps. It will be too much pressure, depression, anxiety for nothing at the end of the day because of the expectation, not the normal one but the expectation based on the comparison with your father. Find something else you can be really good at and appreciated for. A lot of “sons of” have learned that the hard way. I like Shannon’s kids who are doing very well in different fields (health care, finance etc.). We need more rich black athletes/ entertainers’ sons in other fields than those. That will also contribute to reduce the narrative of black people preferring or loving almost only entertainment.
Loser mentality, if that were followed we never would have had Barry Bonds, Peyton Manning, to be Marvin Harrison Jr. If you're great, you're great, and nobody will care what your dad did.
There’s some 1st round picks from last year who are not NBA players right now but they are on NBA rosters
Pretty sad this is a topic on ESPN
Was it sad when bronny was on the cover of sports illustrated, having his high school games nationally televised, having clips of his games being shown on sports center, being offered million dollar endorsement deals all despite being the 3rd best player on his own team and not even top 20 in the country at the time?? Bro you gotta take the bitter with the sweet. Everyone INCLUDING ESPN was praising this kid. Talking about how great his potential was, how he was going to be the first kid to play with his father in the nba. Now that it doesn't look like that's going to happen, nobody is supposed to talk about it? All praise no criticism??
Nothing sad about it. It's sports. He's a college player.
@@elijaharvinger1178basically anything that’s not praise surround Lebron is jealously and hate that shouldn’t be uttered publicly
@@ClaxtonBay123 name one other college player in the history of sports with a ESPN segment saying there not good enough to play said sport I’ll wait
@@elijaharvinger1178 tell that to the view count they post videos all day this probably has the least out of all of them I don’t even have to look I bet 1 of the next 5 videos after this has double the views this is a terrible topic don’t care if it bronny or a random nobody ever heard of the fact of the matter is your talking about whether if a college player is ready for the next level on ESPN 😂😂😂😂 pretty sad it’s sad they talk about LeBron all day there thousands of athletes in the world but they only talk about him and it’s sad whether you like it or not and I’ll be back to comment the same thing when they post topics that mean nothing why does bronny have so much pressure to make it to the nba in 1 year of college MJ played 3 years in college was supposed to play 4 curry played 3 years I don’t get it like I said next useless topic I’ll be back to say the same views did bad so the algorithm agrees with me 🤷🏾♂️
Edit: I just look and 4 out of the next 5 videos have 40k or more views than this video so my point stands trash topic
Ahh look at these guys, tellin the truth aweee
Why is this complicated??? He’s getting treated like any other college kid. There’s nothing wrong with him staying In college and getting his development.
Because it’s Bron’s son and the media expects him to be a carbon copy of his father when that’s clearly not the case
Bronny James is NOT like any other college kid. His NIL deal is like $5M+, he’s been famous since he picked up a basketball, 1M followers on his first day on twitter…….all of this while having a very mediocre season at USC. When your super famous father hypes you up to be NBA ready RIGHT NOW, it would be a disappointment if he’s anything short of that.
So no…….hes not getting treated like any other college kid.
Going from a projected 2024 lottery pick to a projected 2nd round 2025 pick is quite a fall
Levron done this his son, he put to much pressure on him to play with in the NBA. He cant blame anybody but himself.
I work really hard at my game too. 18 hours a day. Doesn’t mean I’m good enough for the NBA.
Feel bad for the kid. Let him be Bronny.
What exactly is there to feel bad about?
He’s making $6m a year because of his last name. I don’t feel bad at all
Kid has a lot of pressure, from his dad being great and then hearing his whole life they are going to play together on same team in nba, so bronny has the pressure to be great and be a high draft pick to be able to play with his dad before he retires
"This is such a complicated area I get so uncomfortable talking about things like this when we're dealing with somebody and their son"
Wow these guys are shameless. Every single person on this planet is somebody's son. Either treat him like everyone else, or if it's uncomfortable maybe you need to treat other people better.
Expectations were too crazy, he was never going to be that guy.
I went to UCLA, but, my dad attended USC. I rep both. I have an old Westbrook UCLA jersey. And,, a USC sweatshirt.
Nobody cares
@@ClaxtonBay123🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💯
I knew that when he was a sophomore in high school that he would need at least 2 if not 3 yrs in college, and still might be a g league player. While all these analysts were talking about him being 1 and done and playing in NBA with lebron. It was so obvious.
That kid was given everything, not sure what he earned exactly...
Mr I wanna play w/ my son when he gets in the league.
can lebron take the vet min he is the oldest player in the league
he's not ready. he needs another year to develop, when he had his heart attack (i'm glad he's back on the court), it has hindered his development
That heart attack wasn't real imo
I think you should definitely be ashamed of what you said. @@robertw174
There's a big difference between a hear attack and a cardiac arrest.
He wasn't playing that much in high school too... What you mean hindered? lol
@@TheRealPlanetFaz heart attack delayed his development as a college player
Let Bronny grow as a player. It shouldn't be about him rushing just to play with his Dad. Side noise like this is what stunts potential. 😮
I’m only giving him a pass because of the recent situation but he needs to work harder more on balance , body control, change of pace
The fact that he has a segment that he isn't good enough is crazy, how is he the highest paid nil but not ranked high make that make sense
Bro that’s because of his name
@norisknorise9592 the day u can make the nba soley off your name is the day the league is dead
If bro name wasn't lebron james jr he wouldnt even be talked about
He needs more time obviously
Kobe was traded on draft night. Jordan went #2 overall. Alex Caruso and Austin Reeves undrafted. These people are stupid.
0:42 The coaches and Windy say otherwise Mike Greenberg keeps an audience.
take the right now out of the title and youd be correct lol
With all due respect, even next year, unless he improves massively, he's a G-league prospect at best, then maybe work his way from there.
It’s very clear he ain’t NBA ready. Don’t need to be a rocket scientist to see that.
Let the kid develop at a college level, then see where he’s at in the future. Not that level yet
Lebron was loving the mock draft when they have Bronny as a lottery pick now he complaining lol
LA Lakers should draft Bronny so he can learn from his father how to become a NBA super star.
If Bronny stays for another yr or 2, he MIGHT be a good solid NBA player, right now he's barely a G-League player!! If his father wasn't Lebum nobody would even be talking about him! #Facts
“YOU’RE NEXT!” - Lebum 😂
Its okay, he can enter NBA just like how Thanasis is in the NBA right now.
I think one more year at USC without heart problem will help Bonny a lot.
Two more years in College is important in developing his skills!
I'm still trying to figure out why Mac McClung isn't in the NBA but Bronny is in a conversation!!!!!!
Bron vicariously tryna live through Bronny.
And I thought LeBron said he can play in the NBA easy... Bronny is overrated.
This is like Michael Jackson lashing out against the recording academy for acknowledging Jermaine doesn’t have a solo album that sold just as much as Thriller 😂
Even if Lebron said nothing, unfortunately the attention would be unfairly put on his kids, same thing that happened with Jordan, but Lebron did say things which added even more attention. The best thing for the kid is to not force this father-son reunion by him declaring for next year's draft, let him continue to develop his game at the college level, let Lebron retire, and he'll come out of college after a few years and some polish. He's clearly not ready right now and to come out this year would be setting him up for failure and embarrassment by the twitter trolls and Lebron haters.
Jordan never hyped his kids , stop 🧢 🤡
Why are we doing this to this kid , there are so many others who get a positive light in the media who are playing well , let this kid develop a bit first
They doing that to him because they jealous if his Dad so now it’s let’s attack his son just weak to me
Will support you through your entire content journey!
Bron changed his tune didn't he. Smh
Facts is facts.....Buddy is not ready at all.
I have trouble believing that an NBA team wouldnt be willing to take a second round flyer on Bronny. We're talking about a kid that most people agree isnt ready, but with most people still believing that he has all the tools needed to succeed on the next level. Teams have drafted complete unknowns in the lottery before, like Shaden Sharpe from the TBs, who was high ranked in high school and then didnt play a single game of college. Bronny has a similar upside level that Sharpe did, so it's hard to see no one taking him. Will he be a project on draft night? Yes, but once that mentality is right and he has some experience at the NBA level, he will flourish.
We killed lavar for hyping his sons but lebron said bronny better then half the league lmao
KEY WORDS: RIGHT NOW. Why you think he was took off mock drafts right now? He will get better
I say don’t rush it we learn everyday bronny definitely know how to get out on a fastbreak I’m still impressed so stop 🛑 it
Earned not given but wasn’t even a top 30 player at the time of the McDonald’s game but got chose 🤣🤣
What Bron talking about. The mock draft is literally the "Result"
LBJ + Bronny to the Spurs... Greg Pop will give the best chance for this young man's development... he's raw for sure, but his defensive effort is insane, his passing is decent - the 3pt shot, and physicality will improve with time!!! 💯💯💯
Mike you was not uncomfortable talking about Lavar and his sons ..
Y'all can say whatever y'all want to say. He ending up in the NBA no matter what.
If he was not lebron son would ESPN be giving him this hype because of his stats? That nba spot belongs to a kid that’s earned it
Bronny James. Do you want to play with me in England or Spain? LMK. Because, your dad invested in Liverpool FC. It's a good city in my opinion. We could maybe make a team.
Bron acts like ESPN realeased that report to attack Bronny. Smh.
He go back to school until next year he will be better then another year won’t hurt him 🔥
It’s lebrons fault he’s the one who said he wants to play with bronny. Put all that pressure on the kid. Maby he doesn’t even want to be a nba player who knows.
LeBron's desire to play with Bronny is definitely pressure. I forgot that LeBron said that Bronny was better than NBA players.
LeBron sent a message to the league that he wants to play with Bronny before retiring, but that only puts the pressure on Bronny to get drafted first round.
No one would have talked about that ESPN rating if not for Lebron's tweet.. its amazing he couldn't figure that out
People were talking about it
What world do you live in ,social media talks about everything
I want Bronny to come to Kentucky so bad. They utilize guys with his skill set great! And cal and lebron have a good relationship
Kentucky ain’t even want him are u serious? Dillingham is 10x better
He is not yet 😢
If any team puts him on the roster it will be a joke.
He has room to grow and stay another year. He's not his father so he could use this time to get better
Agree 💯
Below average wouldn't even be in any NBA talk if his Dad wasn't the boss of Adam silver
Bronny James through this season is averaging 5.5 pts, 2.8 rbs, 2.5 asts, on 37.1% shooting pct. That is not indicative of the top 400 players in the world. Thats how good you have to be to be an NBA player. Look at Michael Jordan's sons, they didn't make it to the league. There's no shame in not being an NBA player even though your dad was in the NBA.
He is going to be one and done but going to the league with the name which is obvious but not getting drafted in the 2nd round in this draft, going to be an Undrafted free agent signing get a summer league deal and then a two way deal then a full deal with whatever team LeBron is on that is going to happen this year mark my words.
NBA scouts can't look at numbers but they. can' measure the heart...
If he is an NBA player -- there are way too many roster spots for teams.
Dang...Bronny is getting 6 million a year for NIL. With his 5.6 scoring average. He makes more than $1 per point.
bro should be lucky to even to be projected to get drafted averaging 5 ppg on 37% shooting
Its ok. No reason to worry in life. They can fail or start over indefinitely
Do you want to show up to Liverpool Legends game March 23, 2024. I'll be there. You should rep Liverpool. I have ooze old Ajax joggers. Rasta.
I feel like everyone just forgot this boy had a heart attack 😭 I don’t want him acting like Steph rn if it’ll kill him
He will go higher. If teams are smart they will pick him higher and make the lakers trade big to play with has dad. If thr dont the G league it is.
