Digby Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 Better hope LeBron has an anti-aging regimen that puts Brady to shame because man, his mediocre son and the worst white-guy-overconfidence coach in recorded history aren't gonna solve much. Can we get a 3rd option for an asterisk title for them to win? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dynasty Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 I still don't know why LeBron's son couldn't just enter the transfer portal if USC was no longer an option. He might've been able to improve his value somehow, even if he would still end up drafted. Is he really that desperate to play with his dad or is he being pushed to?

dont care Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 Based on his (and his dads) agent telling all the other teams if they drafted him he would play in Australia instead of say he was pushed into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBTV Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 I actually feel for the kid. He has to walk into that locker room that's filled with some players who have busted their ass and know what it takes to make (and stay in) the league, and he knows that everyone knows why he's there. He also knows that everything he has is because of his more-successful father, who he's being forced to play along side of and be made a fool of when it's clear that his dad is twice the player he is. I know nobody feels sorry for a rich kid, and maybe I'm totally wrong about all of this, but no matter what he has in life, he can't feel that great about himself, and his dad is just making it worse. I actually do feel for the guy. Or maybe I'm wrong and he walks into that locker room and doesn't give a F and is just like "I'm in the NBA, this is cool! Oh you worked hard to get here Mr. point guard? Cool story. I didn't - now get out of my way btch." 2 Quote "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

DG_YouKnowWhatThatMeans Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 We'll see what summer league looks like. If Bronny is completely out of his league -- and that says a lot -- he might make the roster at the back of the bench, but they can find a heart injury for him soon enough. Mid case scenario is he's actually a decent practice player and can get into games at garbage time. Best case is he has one of those Austin Rivers careers and has a few moments along the way. It'll be more fun when we go through all of this in a couple of years with LeBron's next kid.

Speaking of families in the league, whatever happened to the Big Ballers? LaMelo, Lonzo, and I can't remember the other. Hell - their dad was on Monday Night Raw. I was really hoping they'd take over the league. The more I think of it, I wish I had a son so that I could get him drafted into CCSLC and we could be the first father/son posters (that I know of). I don't know what his user name would be. El Hijo del BBtV? Vet McGillicuddy?

who do you think Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 I was hoping some other team would take Bronny and hold him hostage just for comedy's sake, but I guess other teams don't think their second-round picks are that worthless, nor do they need the LeBron Mafia making their lives hell in the future. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

who do you think Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 Lonzo didn't live up to the hype but was turning into a pretty decent role player until he wrecked his knee a couple years ago. He's missed the last two full seasons and even if he does play again he's permanently damaged goods. LaMelo is the new Stephon Marbury, i.e. decent counting stats on awful teams because somebody has to score the points. And after a quick run over to B-R to double check myself on that, it seems that he hardly ever plays either. I think LiAngelo got arrested in Taiwan or something weird. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like a nice kid, but I don't think he's asked for any of this big spectacle around him and it feels like a no-win situation unless he (very quickly) overperforms in the league. Is this even the career/life he wants? Especially after the medical stuff? I saw a tweet that said "actually it's really good that Bronny stays in LA because that's where his medical team is" and I thought that was just so grim. Just get him a desk job for Nike if that's what we're worrying about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FriedPickles Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 (edited) In the past nba playoffs, I was thinking if the Lakers or Timberwolves would have been the first team NBA history to come back from a 0-3 lead against the Nuggets or Mavericks respectively. But when I look back and remember that the first round of the NBA playoffs prior to the 2002-03 season to was a best of 5 series, i thought why can't the entire playoffs be a best of 5? Since NO ONE will ever seem to come back from a 0-3 hole, it would satisfy the people that think the NBA playoffs go on wayy too long, as i am one of them, and make the games matter even more. Although because of possible money from extended series I know this won't happen, but since the team up 3-0 has to beat them one time and the one down 0-3 has to win 3 straight just to get to a game 7, it is neigh impossible, but would streamline things a little bit Edited June 30 by FriedPickles spelling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
