The thought of Bron driving in the paint and kicking it out to Bronny for a 3 ball is crazy and heartwarming honestly. Would be a sight to see

[@mir8651]

Got emotional thinking about this. Just incredible.

[@rajmathew6220]

And the postgame interview, they both answer questions with the same voice

[@kjayvinas4370]

And Bronny misses

[@georgekouts]

Sorry to burst your bubble, but Bronny sucks! He is NOT an NBA prospect at the moment!

[@djksquallzz]

barely a year removed from almost losing everything, to battling back and putting up a high lvl combine performance on and off the court is truly impressive.

[@KeyMediaMA]

And somehow people still can’t find it in themselves to just show some support- you got over 100 guys in the league that nobody knows, cashing checks & nobody screams injustice. Bronny has my full support even if Bron wasn’t his father.

[@CoryWillis]

But have they shown a defensible reason to get to where they are by performing at lower levels? If not, then say he didn't deserve it just like you should for bronny. This is just nepotism. If it's a business, everyone will scream nepotism and corruption. Why is it any different?

[@ozzee5094]

@@KeyMediaMAbecause he doesn’t deserve to be drafted and is only being drafted because of his father bronny is coming off a putrid season in college where scouts have assessed he’s not an nba caliber prospect. He’d struggle mightily in Europe and even China. Not everyone is nba caliber. He can’t even excel or be average in college

[@PayAttEx]

@@ozzee5094 You mean a season in college where he went to basically from hospitals and almost dying with no pre-season prep while everyone else were there at 100%. You people are disgraceful.

@@PayAttEx goofy his cardiac arrest happened in July.24th which was way before the college season he had plenty of time to recover which he did he just doesn’t have much game hence his subpar production on a lousy college team.

[@Peter-hz3vs]

I hope Bronny makes it but Lebron is the guy putting all the pressure to teams that he would play with Bronny. Now, he is using the whole Klutch network including Shams to say that teams getting Bronny isn’t getting him. He put the pressure on his son by even stating Bronny is better than many players in the NBA right now. Those “worse” players were all stars in their college career. Blame on Lebron for sure

[@oscarlopez8804]

It is one of their first even nba-level guests I think, and the hosts are such relatable guests just like us the fans. Can't wait for that pod to open up, when Bronny can finally get a chance to essentially just be himself after weeks of national media coverage where he has to be forced to stay composed and professional!

[@holly_wood26]

Bronny understanding that he's not his dad, but believing in himself and believe he can help contribute and help his team win is really mature and remarkable. I think this perspective and understanding what his abilities are will serve him well and will help him to be successful when he's in the NBA.

[@mr.e8226]

I think the comparison to Gary Payton II is great. GP2 had a full college career, tho. Good instincts and atheleticsm as well as fundamentally sound with access to the best trainers in the world. Not the best player on their teams but can play hard earn respect of their teammates. Bronny should have gone to like San Diego State or Long Beach State to be the main player. But I think things worked out for him because of the heart condition to be at a big school with medical resources to not push him to come back with major minutes too soon.

I'm impressed. Great job James Family. I think not every family thinks or sees it this way, for instance I feel entirely sabotaged, repeatedly and consistently, from day one. But to know how it really should be, to me, its important. I am glad someone got things working. And I enjoy the game no matter who is playing so to see it at the highest level is also important to me. Knowing how it became that way is excellent to know. I know for sure i would be dominant if I had any support growing up, and in multiple sports. No question. But housing and income became an issue right around 15-16 so it was meant to be so I can come from way down to make it all the way back ... Is how I see it. I got no doubt whatsoever. I seen other people though, how they grew up normally. So I knew something needed to change and I eventually got out of there and survived until now ... If I get an opportunity to do anything I most certainly will ... I really enjoy this podcast for some reason. What is it exactly? The professionalism? The content? The host and guest? The sporting reference? All of it? I dunno, but these guys are exactly my type of people and I am glad they are out there ...
