Happy for Bronny. Being an NBA player's son, he has a lot of advantages as far as knowledge of the game and exposure and familiarity to the league from a young age. Reminds a little of Kobe. Not saying he's at or close to that level, but Kobe being around the NBA helped him bring a strong foundation and skillset to compete with the pros as a teenager. No the biggest Lebron fan but I have to give Bronny the benefit of the doubt and wish him a good career. He's worked hard to have a chance and thought he got the chance with the help of his dad, he seems to have a good mind and willingness to learn.

Clearly, they don't care about Dalton Knecht - GM introduces Bronny James first, then Dalton. Sheesh.... This Lakers organization is f*cked!

Look at Bronny stats at college, I am rolling at the floor 🤣🤣🤣

[@testing52009]

crazy that jj and bronny don't have the qualifications to be on that stage but are simply put there by bron to please him. this is not healthy

[@coachhumph5524]

Is it as crazy as how Lebron put Steve Nash on the Brooklyn Nets stage since everything is about making Lebron look bad?

[@Yungdil]

Crazy how Jj almost got the job at the raptors before the pod with lebron.

[@josmith2186]

JJ belongs due to his basketball experience and the fact that he was coached by Coach K. Being a Coach doesnt mean having that title for X amount of years. It means are you able to help a team stay engaged and execute? People within the organization thinks he can ... And obviously LeBron has his ear as the current face of the league. In other words what I'm saying is, The Lakers could've hired someone a lot worse, but they also could have hired someone a lot better. But he has a elite basketball resume overall. Gotta wait and see how this opportunity for JJ plays out.

Really? Casting your shadow on your son for life is good? How will Bronny ever grow into the man he is meant to be?

By setting up his son for failure and embarrassment on a national stage??

Crazy

[@jayteebee1334]

The fact that they have everybody in the organization coming out to say bronny esrned his way, makes it so transparent that he did not in fact earn his way

[@Drewswaggy]

that sparkle glow that JJ has had his whole life is about to be dimmed... This job is most certainly going to age him. I can alrdy kinda see it with that bag under his eye. I wish him well. lol

Bronny is going to be alright ,he’s going to work hard and Lebron will make sure of it,he was definitely worth taking a chance on with the 55th pick

Somebody need to edit this and put the 2k press conference answer selections after every question

[@ThaTawpDawg]

I felt like Dalton was taking a little Jab at Bronny about writing his own story 😂 Bronny got his daddy and Lakers organization writing his.. why is LeBron really letting his son wear shades in his first NBA interview!?

[@thetrib1]

you feel that way because you have an issue. dalton not bothered by bronny lol. he probably feels slighted for even being drafted that late in the draft anyway. he's a dog.

[@ThaTawpDawg]

@@thetrib1 I agree he’s a dawg! Never said he wasn’t. His game reminds me of a American Luka a little bit lol but he’s earned to get drafted I just think Bronny didn’t and would have gone undrafted if the Lakers didn’t pick him and he wouldn’t even be in the draft in the first place if his dad wasn’t LeBron..
