Scottie Pippen son is better but didn't make the Lakers roster

[@DaMixWizard]

💯 absolutely correct. He was better. Scottie Pippen Jr actually ran the Vanderbilt offense and averaged over 20ppg his sophomore and junior year in college. Can you imagine if Bronny James put up those numbers😮. He would've been the #1 pick😅

@@thetruthendofstory Silver should've stepped in years ago when it comes to Klutch Sports. Rich Paul was a nobody before meeting Lebron. He did not have the $ or connections to start a sports agency. Everyone knows Lebron really runs Klutch. And no player should be allowed to do this while still playing. He exploited a loophole that Silver should've closed a decade ago. Also agents should not be able to call teams and threaten them to not draft their player. I know that's happened in other sports and it's ridiculous every time it happens.

They took him off the SDEP because it caused a defect. It's a reason why LeBron is not concerned if it happens again to Bronny. It's because he knows what caused it It's also reason why no one or interviewer never asked LeBron or Bronny what caused the Cardiac Arrest. They are told not to ask that question by LeBron's people. If it was a real situation, LeBron could actually help people by saying...this is what happened to Bronny, because I don't want it to happen to your child. But, there's no way he will say the truth.

[@TerminalFrost79]

Here’s a hot take. That so called heart attack was staged by Klutch sports and the James family because they knew he was going to have a mediocre season at USC and they preemptively prepared for that. I don’t think it sounds far fetched and they would’ve had the money and power to do so. Seriously, if you attach a crazy excuse like that to his freshman season it would’ve justified his terrible averages since LeBron told the world that Bronny could’ve play for the Lakers right at that moment. LeBron already faked a hate crime by saying someone sprayed painted a racial slur on his house. Look what happened to Chris Bosh once he had his heart ailment. He was a proven All-Star/Super Star and once he had his heart condition every team backed off and his career was over. So, why touch Bronny James? It doesn’t pass the smell test for me.
