Part 1: • Gilbert Arenas: Lakers...
--------
Gilbert Arenas discussed the recent buzz around Bronny James, who was drafted as the 55th overall pick by the LA Lakers. While some critics argue that Bronny’s inclusion is solely due to his father, LeBron James' influence, Arenas offers a different perspective. Arenas explained that Bronny had serious interest from other teams, but agent Rich Paul advised clubs not to draft him, suggesting Bronny would instead play in Australia. This strategic move ensured Bronny landed on the Lakers, where he could be mentored directly by his father. Arenas believes the backlash stems from insecurity among fathers, not from any wrongdoing by LeBron. He argues that it's natural for fathers to leverage their resources to benefit their children, comparing it to family businesses passing down through generations. Having LeBron as a direct mentor provides Bronny with unparalleled guidance on becoming a professional athlete.
gilbert dont wanna mess things up with bron 😂😂😂
Exactly you know 😂 Gilbert, Shannon sharp, nick wright few others under Lebron clutch sports management they do a lot of shielding in the media for Lebron and his goat agenda. Nobody mad that Lebron son in the nba ppl are mad how it happened bronny wasn't good in college how you average 5 points a game and declare for the draft 😂 then tell teams you better not draft him because I want to play with my son so that can help my goat debate. While Lebron trying to help his goat debate he doing disservices to his son isn't ready for the nba and all he did was stunt his son growth instead of letting him improve in college
Or maybe....just maybe, he supports Lebron and has respect for.him.
@tbjb009 This is the problem with black folks, we got a man like Bron doing great things and our ppl hate on that....if he was Hispanic, Hispanics would support, if he was Asian, etc....but our ppl smh
What an ignorant comment. Do you even have proof that Gil and Bron communicate???
@@WalkingWalletbingo and its sad fr we the only ones
Didn’t LeBron say Bronny is better than guys in the league. His parents put the pressure on him
Yes, and he said this before bronny even played a game in college.
because its true...did u see some of them dudes thep istons had
@@AllThingsKen he’s not better than a single pistons player I’ll put a lot of money on that
And they are scared to say the truth.... Lol
It's so weird to hate on a 19 year old just because his parents hyped him up...just my opinion tho.
I swear, Gilbert arenas has the WORST takes in the history of mankind
Becuz he's not honest.
He’s an idiot
What he said was facts yt ppl pass businesses and wealth to their children since they came to this country. Why cant Bron do the same?
@@MunnaWill07it’s sad that people like you exist
@@MunnaWill07exactly. These dudes just be talking
Gilbert owning up to daddy Bron right here
Did Gilbert lie about anything he said. Yes or no?
@@billycarter1798 yes😂 that last part
Why do people have to be insecure because we aren’t pretending Bronny can play?
Right! Gil is a clown
Its the classic if you cant beat an argument, go for the shame and insults and call some one insecure
@@adgee5401 lol... I think they are rather insecure... They are Scared, calling a spade a spoon. Gil mehn
What a ridiculous take. Bronny is not good enough for the Summer League let alone a 4 yr guaranteed contract with the historic Lakers
How many times is the 55th pick good enough lol I did my hw dating back to 2009 most don’t make it 2 seasons some don’t finish the season before getting cut by the stats n results the 50th pick n back a reserve for the players that ain’t really good n just to fill a roster spot
It happens more often now the 57th & 60th pick from last year draft both got that same 4 year guaranteed contract
@@TefBillionare Most 55th picks are better than Bronny. Bronny is a 55555th pick. That boy is just nowhere near good enough. Enough with the excuses.
It's not your money though so why do you care? The only people that should care are die-hard Lakers fans that are invested in all 15 roster spots. There's players in the NBA that hardly know the 15th man on their own team. Y'all are really just haters.
@djturner-smith6380 A fan who cares about the well being of the team, and fans do pay their salaries, they do have a say.
Klutch Sports is the Mafia 😂
The only reason someone would have drafted bronny before the lakers is to get lebron on their team. No team would have drafted bronny based on his skillset
BINGO
LeBron could get Savannah on the Lakers if he wanted😂
Giannis gets at least one brother, sometimes 3 brothers on the Bucks roster. Thannis does NOT belong on an NBA roster.
@danielmeuler2877 honestly bruh, who really cares bout a bench warmer? If dudes that average less than 20 points getting 200 mill, ppl just hate on Bron smh
@@WalkingWallet I don't care either way. I am just saying, if people are going to call out LeBron for this, you have to call out Giannis. I could care less what teams chose to do with their rosters.
What's wrong with that?
Savannah on the lakers that's just stupid comment
He shot 0-12 From 3 points He better pass the ball all the time
Who cares it’s summer league
No way Gelo Ball would shoot and play that bad if I was Lavar Ball I’d be pissed
What are you expecting from someone drafted 55th in the 2nd round?
The fact that they kept him for 30 min like hes a real prospect is disrespectful after he kept missing and got blocked
Anything to stay in contact with Lebron. Gilbert is a 🤡
U gotta realize Gil has known Bronny since he was a child. Wade cp3 melo gil are viewed as his uncles gil and Bronny are extremely close
@certifiedchaos4643 facts and he asked Gil to help him when he was scouting for highschool and stuff folks just be saying anything
@@user-fx8nb3cl8u 🚨🚨🚨🚨 right i always say ppl need yo do research
Only a 🤡 makes up a whole narrative like that. Do you even know when the last time gil and Bron spoke? Do u even know if they speak?
Gil is a lame and a clown
Gilbert Arenas is a weirdo.
Extra weird!!! South Park Timmy has better logic and conversation.....he Slow.....
This is the worst take on this situation I've heard yet 🤡
No it was actually a great take
I was literally thinking the same thing
Bet Gil cant name 1 player who was a 2nd round draft pick Let alone picked 55th that got a 4yr guaranteed contract Without even playing a Summer league game
That aint never happened before
Man, ageng zero out here dissapointing us . Where is the accountability bro
Real talk. We’re just annoyed that veteran reporters and past NBA PLAYERS are lying to our faces about this kid.
LBJ said he could play in the league, now he’s struggling in Summer League. Yalls heads are so far up the Kings ass it’s enraging. We’re not idiots.
Gelo Ball was a way better prospect than Bronny if I was Lavar id be pissed 😂😂
I wish I could be a fly on the wall 😂😂😂😂 I know he hot !
Nah fr he was hooping in summer league too
He caught a charge that’s the only reason and Lavar knows that
give me gello or vanvleet every day
I’m 100 percent dumber after watching this
LOL 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lebron just said last year that Bronny could play with the Lakers smh
Ken Griffey Senior and Ken Griffey Junior will always be the best father son tandem in sports history nobody in baseball football basketball hockey or ever touch them
Nobody is mad we just don’t believe bronny good enough or ready to be in the nba
It’s ppl with worse stats than Bronny had in college that went in the 1st round I’m sure you didn’t care about that
@@deesee2051 no it’s not u talkin about 1 dude who played pro ball overseas right out of high school & was still more productive on a per minute basis than bronny at usc. Bronny is literally the 2nd least productive college player to ever be drafted into the nba since the draft was shortened to 2 rounds
@@1Eashawty wrong 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️ this just happened in 22 worse college stats than Bronny and he went 1st you casuals don’t know shit y’all just hate bronny 😂😂😂 it’s sad
I think people like yourself don’t want him to be good in the NBA though. Give him a year before you judge. Not everyone is good coming into the league.
@@deesee2051 name the player that had worse college production than bronny & was drafted 1st round in 2022 then so i can prove u wrong
Bronny needed another 2 years in college. I just don't like this feels like it's about Bron not Bronny
My cereal was good today
Gil is a Lakers homer, take his takes on the Lakers with a grain of salt😂
Bronny has the athleticism, he can be developed, and become a solid role player.
Bra the nba is for the special the best players around the world. If bron jr was him nobody would care the problem is he’s never been😭
Yeah in the mexican league
He's not d rose, hes a grown ass man he cant develop shit
@@Dipset415explain Giannis brother?
He was drafted when Giannis was a nobody🥱Luke Walton Kwame brown Michael oluwakandi adonal foyal all played a decade+ we’re trash but made it to the league on the own merit
He said what he meant too say and took it back he had too think damn bron ain’t gone fuck with me 😂😂☠️
facts! at the beginning of the video bro said “no ..wait yes i thought bronny was getting drafted”😂
The real came out for a second 😂
hes not at all nba ready. Not even g league ready. Teams would only draft him for his last name.
Men Calling men insecure is feminine
Damm even Gil is on Lebron/klutch payroll
Gil really sat up here and tries to gaslight the people, while also admitting that lebron pulled favors to get his son on the team instead of players who actually deserve it
Y’all gotta remember this the same guy that compared NBA players work life to that of Walmart workers
He grew up with his father there who was a basketball coach
2:54 the issue is he wasn't even the best player on his team and if he weren't the son of LeBron he wouldn't have been drafted
Tell em Gil. Every good Dad will do the same for their son in any industry.
Bronnie literally can’t get out of his Father’s shadow😂
I’m an electrician, 95 percent of the new hires are someone’s son, nephew, cousin and 100 percent of the time they know absolutely nothing about electric . So I understand what’s being said.
All these players coming out in support of Bronny James are full of it. We’ve watched this short kid just look like a fish out of water. I’m a father and I played high school basketball. We were a 27-0 team in New Jersey and won our group. Beat Clifford Scott in the Challenge of the Champions. Lost to St. Anthony’s with Danny Hurley in finals. I went on to play DI football. Then to a short dip in the NFL. I’m proud of what I did. I say that to say stop blaming parents or fathers cause we watch enough basketball to know this kid can’t play in NBA. A 6’2” non point guard that can’t shoot nor is he a capable shooter
So Gilbert saying that dads are upset that they cant do the same for their kids or their dads doing the same for them is admitting that Lebron is the sole reason Bronny is drafted….He’s admitting that a “favor” was committed.
The beautiful thing about all sports is the competition at the highest level aspect. The Bronny move goes against the spirit of competition
Nobody mad for him getting his son on the Lakers.It’s because he forced the Lakers to draft him.His agent told teams not to draft him notice Lebron didn’t resign with Lakers until they drafted him.
Basically what he just said was long as his son is with he he’s protected. How many 55 picks you know get a 4 year guaranteed contract a week after the draft an get interviews. My only thing is they stole from other hard working poor family kid who better an deserves it because he worked hard not because of ego his parent is
Yeah the contract was OD, but he does add value to the team and gives them a regular season storyline
Absurd argument by Gil Arenas, it’s disappointing , he doesn’t realize that there is young boy from the streets worked really hard for that 55th pick and provide for his family, and Lebron stole that from him… that’s why fathers are mad not jealous
This dude is a Clown he must be friends with LeBron
Come on Gil, stop the glazing, no need for it!!! 🤡
The only reason other teams thought about drafting bronny was to use it as leverage against the lakers for a trade because they new the lakers wanted him badley. Gilbert is not explaining the whole situation.
Gil grasping at straws to avoid keeping it real about Bronnie in order to maintain his good relationship with LeBron but all of LeBron‘s friends are doing the same thing skirting the question
Bron den single handedly made the league billions & resurrected the Lakers relevancy in the league, brought AD & got them a chip. The LEAST they could do is draft his son. I wouldn’t give much merit to summer league performance either, Rob Dillingham was a top 10 pick and just scored 4 points & went 0-5 from 3. I judge what you do in the league From what i see in a real NBA game.
U outta pocket on this one gill
He is very out of pocket
Gilbert was paid to say this. Rich Paul only made those calls so they can claim he was wanted elsewhere
Lebron went hard at all the diddy parties and other parties to get his son there 😂
Other teams did wanna draft Bronny, but only because of the chance of getting Bron as well, if not for that, he wouldn’t get drafted.
It’s no insecure dads at all it’s that this kid is a rich kid who’s had everything given to him When someone else’s son came from nothing and can’t get a shot because of who his father is the kid didn’t earn it don’t hate him but he didn’t earn his way
And you see it everyday fool...your jobs boss was probably his dads business before he started telling your ass what to do..so plz sit down..go look at the na. Coaches..owners and front offices ..white people do it all the time...only a hater would say otherwise
If Bronny wasn’t Lebron James son, I don’t think anyone would’ve gave a shit. If it was Steph Curry son or even Gilbert Arenas son, I don’t think everybody would be tripping. Because Bronny is the son of one of the most hated basketball players in history, Bronny is gonna get the hate. I dropped this shit a long time ago and all I can say is good luck to the kid 👍🏾
Be quiet Bron stan
So tired of hearing all the Bronny hate by grown ass men. Let him get through his first year and then we can have a conversation about him.
It's not hate, it's their opinion and since Bronny is now a professional, he's open to criticism from everyone. So you think people should take it easy on him because of his age, even though he got a 4 year contract!? So you want the real world to baby him!? 🤣
Give me a break, he needs to do better and he criticism will go away.
Gilbert on Lebron's payroll
No father is mad at Lebron for finessing the nba draft. It’s the fact that he’s using his son as a pawn to pad his resume. Bronny is not going to help the Lakers win so this is nothing more than a publicity stunt
😂😂😂
His dad said he was better than most of the players in the NBA 😂
Rocking the Caps jersey! 🔥🔥🔥
No the problem was lebron saying his son was better than half the nba
keep in mind people : gilbert is from LA..lives in LA..& is a LA lakers fan..so his opinion on bronny is bias 🙄🥱😴 here are the real issues : #1 bronny would have never been drafted by ANY team if his dad wasn't lebron : bronny averaged 4 pts in college : #2 no 1 that is drafted that late EVER gets a 4 year GUARANTEED contract usually players that get drafted that late are just hoping 2 make the team but they damn sure dont get a guaranteed contract : #3 most players that are drafted that late usually go 2 the Lakers G league team & work their way up 2 actually playing 4 the lakers & thats if they dont get cut : bronny may not play in the g league @ all & if he does it won't be the whole season : these things are the issues that people have with bronny being drafted & of course we all know he didnt earn it or deserve it : simple
His “biased” opinion means more than your “truth”. Let that sink in.
Facts
I dont expect Bronny to be a star … he dont even deserve to be the Pick 55th
Nepotism at its finest. Bronny isn't even close to what Lebron was at his age. I get it you love your son, you do what you got to do. The reality is there are better players that deserve that spot.
Nobody was trying to draft him unless they thought they could get Lebron! Gilbert stop with this lie dude! You're tripping!
Congratulations to both Father and Son playing for the best Team in NBA history those who are jealous let them burst
If Goofy Gilbert was real supporter of Bronny James he would've told him to stay in college or play on Australia until he was ready. Gilbert trained him. Gilbert knew he wasn't ready. Gilbert isn't like us looking from a distance. He could have actually had that conversation with Bronny and LeBron Sr.
At least when Lavar Ball hyped his sons he knew they were NBA ready. Not better than Steph like he said, but definitely able to play NBA basketball. We're still waiting to see why Bronny was even on the team at USC.
Secure Dads understood Sports was off limits! I'm down to give you everything but in sports you must earn that son! This single handedly destroyed every lesson that dads tried to instill in their sons. The last frontier of "you have to work to achieve at that level" GONE! In One Draft!!!! It's the opposite. Insecure dad's with money and power use influence to get their kids involved in sports at the highest level. Insecure dad's, know the kid don't have it, so they go out and "Donate" or "Sponsor" the team with money and resources to ensure the kid get a seat at the table. That can get you all the way through college. Then the Buck stops!
NO. Lebron said he didn't want to play with young players.. so the Lakers traded all those good players.. Now it's different because his son is draft eligible.. He pretty much contridicted himself!
Gilbert is right 💯 legron is an inspiration, the way he lives and acts
Yawn
With the Rich Paul point, If another team was going to pick bronny up, it was just to troll.
Man that whole rich paul told teams not to draft him is bs, wasnt nobody but the lakers gon draft him
Lavar ball did the same thing for lonzo…
@@KeefChief_ Lavar wasnt an agent & lonzo was actually good at basketball & was picked 2nd overall in the draft. Lonzo was a consensus all american at ucla, bronny was the worst scholarship player on a 9th place team in the pac12 in a down year for the conference
@@KeefChief_the ball brothers could hoop wtf😭 there was real benefit to telling a certain team to draft or to not draft him
Shoutouts to Lebron & Bronny. Power move.
I don’t put no expectations on Bronny…he almost died
Gilbert is capping! LeNut can't play, and no one would've drafted him.
LOL...Ain't nobody mad... People know that Bronny Ain't GOOD
Love Gil but couldnt more off with this take.
We hate it because it waters down the talent level of the nba. If we start drafting ppl based on their name and not their talent--- the product suffers --- therefore, us as fans suffer. Imagine a league half full of undersized guys who score 3 pts a game and only made it to the big show because of who their fathers were-----
Sounds riveting 🙄
PEOPLE NEED TO LEAVE HIM ALONE, UNLESS YOU OWN A NBA TEAM AND OR SHARES IT DOES NOT AFFECT YOU
Bronny the spoiled brat never left home. Everybody knows it's a lie he ain't going to Australia lol
Gilbert can’t be serious…
Whyte people do this ALL the time… I applaud a Lebron! Amazing Father
Nah, ain’t nobody jealous. The nepo baby got a participation trophy and we ALL KNOW IT! The Emperor has no damn clothes on…
The Boy ain't that Good and Bron is wrong for saying that shi about bronny being better than NBA players. By why are the NBA ppl lying though? Are they that scared of Bron? Lol... Yall on some nursery shi
The first father and son playing in the NBA and at the same time.
Shaq got his son signed with the lakers when he came out, d wade did the same with his son in Utah and he’s a part owner of the jazz, jr smith got his brother on the knicks what’s the difference people care too much if he can’t play then he’ll be out the league soon but why be mad
Hes not making any sense. He had like 20 games with 0 point's.. averaged 3 pts.. he isnt good enough to be in the nba
Insecure dads? Bro some ppl dont have kids and my opinion is this.
Gilbert Arenas is kissing Lebros a$s. No one is an insecure father or anything like that.
NOT EVERYONE IS NBA MATERIAL. Also teaching someone integrity and be real to yourself amd dont lie to yourself is why this world ia going the direction its going. Be real to yourself about your skillset. Is ok not to lie to yourself and find your calling elsewhere that your good at.
You can teach him anything from anyhwere. The Lakers burned a roster spot and could have had a real NBA ready type athlete not no high-school driveway garage hooper on their roster.
What Lebron did is an abuse of power. There is plenty of talented guys out in the streets that didnt get the opportunity to play on a team due to favotism or coaches sons,kids friends, family being favored
Yo lets lets be real man. Is he NBA material. Did he leave early? Can he score? Can he play defense? Will he contribute to a team?
Those questions are what matters not the fact that you're stayimg in the family business and here it is handed on a platter. Dude should be in the GLeague or overseas or stillin collge point blank man. All this drama for this wack ass player, meanwhile the real talented player that really deserves this opportunity is drinking out of a gallon of water, waiting on a duaty court somehere in America ready to drag, shoot or dunk on your best talent is out there playing waiting for his chance to prove himself.
Wake da eff up peopleand stop idolizing these so called greats. 🤡 $hit

Plain and simple. Learn to read and comprehend.
Most lebron haters hate him & his son cause his politics & BLM stance.
The rest of these tethers are just bandwagons who think they have a hot take.
Gilbert is trying to do the same thing for his son. That’s why he’s defending.bronny😂
Everybody know Gil and Klutch nvm😭😭
Totally agree if you’re in position to do that for your son why would you not ?
Life is not about handouts. Smooth brain
Bronny need to model his game after John Stockton. Become a passer
REAL DAD S DONT GIVE A FUCK!!! YOU ARE ALL ENTERTAINMENT!
Yeah man. Be real. Bronny is a joke. The problem here is he does not deserve it. And he’s not any good. Making the Lakers is a huge accomplishment they took away from another family and another kid who actually deserved it. Bronny has no skill or potential.
Lebrons selfishness glows once again. LeBron was quoted saying it was his biggest accomplishment in basketball as a player. LeBron legit ruined his own sons playing career for blatant selfish attention seeking reason.
His son has no career he's trash. This entire thing is absurd.
Gilbert looks like he rode the yellow bus....he floats before speaking like the special kids needing psychological help.....
Lmao no. This entire thing is a joke and it's gonna get worse when Lebron wants his kid to play real minutes.
Nobody would’ve taken that boy
You can’t take Gil seriously ….
Where was this outrage when Giannis brother got picked up?
Stop hating it doesn’t matter if he’s good or not his father did his job & expedited his son success I got you here it’s your job to stay here. Bronny has been playing against the best basketball player of our era his whole life his father the best y’all father’s did was get u a job at Chrysler 🤯
Y’all expecting him to be his father, you really have a bad insight on everything.
Nobody is expecting that
