    A father wanting the best for his son and wanting to give him the best chance at success is not only natural, it is commendable. BUT, I absolutely believe that LeBron James has inadvertently made a HUGE mistake and has already tarnished Bronny’s reputation.
    It’s a shame because this isn’t Bronny’s fault, and from all reports he’s a really great guy. But he was always going to face nepotism complaints (and they are warranted IMO), and LeBron has made the problem 100 times worse. Whether it’s true or not, Bronny’s potential NBA career will always be looked at as nothing but a nepotism hire by the league to please his politically-powerful father

    At least Perkins finally admitted the obvious that Bronny should have never been a McDonald's All American.

    It's natural and commendable for a parent, especially one with the means and influence like LeBron James, to support their children in their endeavors. In sports, parental support can be crucial to a young athlete's development and confidence. LeBron being present at his son Bronny's games and providing him with guidance is an example of healthy parental involvement in a child's career.
    If Stephen A. Smith had been as successful in basketball as LeBron James, and had a son who was talented in the sport, he might have acted similarly by supporting his son publicly and privately. Criticizing LeBron for his support might be inconsistent if one would do the same under similar circumstances.
    The observation here is that criticism towards Bronny seems to be coming primarily from Stephen A. Smith and Kendrick Perkins. This could imply that their critique is more of an outlier rather than a general consensus, suggesting that their opinions might not fully represent the broader sports community's views on LeBron's support of his son.
    Extra effort by parents, such as opening doors or providing unique opportunities, is a normal part of parenting, and not something to be criticized when it comes to aiding their child’s growth and success.
    This is a straightforward call for critics to stop negative commentary about LeBron's involvement with Bronny's sports career.

    Not fair. What you are saying was going to happen to Bronny anyway. Lebron was blindsided with the question on barbershop. Referring to playing with his son. If you were in the NBA and had a son you would be excited as lebron was about playing with your own son in the NBA. Broony's career was chosen (basketball) before the question was presented to Lebron. Your position is somewhat reasonable however the spotlight was coming to Bronny once he got to the NBA. He would face a different question along the same lines. "Bronny are you going to be great as your dad.?" I fully concur with the medical aspects of your position. Bronny should tell the crowd "I might not get the numbers my dad has, but offensively I will be more dynamic, spectacular, and extremely entertaining". Showtime.

    Frick and Frack here trying to justify their obsession with LeBron and in turn Bronny. The man said he would like to be on the court with his son and the media couldn't let go of his comment. When asked if he wanted to play with his dad, Bronny said his goal was to enter the league. So, who has a problem with what LeBron said... Frick & Frack aka SAS & Perk.

    Steph curry and lebron is from ohio. They already got rings and they old now. It would be mind blowing if Cleveland kept the team as is. lebron and curry took a pay cut and went to go get Seth curry & forced them to draft bronny so they could retire in there hometown. Mind you bronny, levert curry and lebron is from Ohio so I think if they thought about it they all would get ring in if they came together😰 that would be an unbeatable team🥇That pace would be too fast for anybody to compete with Cleveland in the nba. Hella depth and advanced players. Everybody pray that never happens lol

    Bronny is a low tier player, no true talent. But lebron gotta shelter and nest his son so he stays in the NBA for 5 years, and hopefully has the skillset by then to be his own man. if it wasn't for lebron, bronny would be in D league, or not even in line at all.
