who the hell wants to go to a team where he is taking a pay cut? Whenever they underperform they have to listen to him talk about “I took a pay cut for this? “

[@THEENERGYINHALER]

This makes no sense to me... its not like Lebron is winning the Lakers championships right and left... they blow... I dont see why they dont let Lebron go and start to rebuild.. picking 6 foot 1 bronny shows how broke this franchise is ingeneral

[@user-bf5sg6wk5w]

How hard is it for Bronnie James?!!! What are you talking about Mr.James!!?? How many millions he earn is much more as nothing. Everyone has to work hard. Just because he is working hard is the reason to be drafted?! Please make a reality check.... Pathetic...

Lebron taking a payout yet his son gets a contract worth more than that paycut. Lebron is just virtue signaling.

Pops will make sure Bronny plays good minutes in the NBA if he deserves them or not. And Bron will call plays for Bronny to try and pad his stats.

[@user-xy9nv8mk5l]

Nobody wants to get blamed for Lebron not getting another ring . When he retires guys will wanna be Lakers again

[@timothy2c]

It doesn’t matter if Bronny isn’t a polished commodity yet. People will buy tickets to watch him, therefore the contract is warranted. Its economics.

[@AAONMS1]

Lebron didn’t take a pay cut because he absolutely didn’t deserve a max contract at the age of 39

Lebron took a "pay cut" so Bronny could get a gauranteed contract

[@improvementinc.3712]

Call me crazy but I think with the right coaching, alongside a healthy consistent roster this team can easily be a 6 or even 5 seed. Assuming they are a 6 seed, they can make some solid trades as certain players' (DLo, Hachimura, etc) stocks will increase giving other players the confidence to join the Lakers. As of right now, players are hesitant since the Lakers have been struggling, but if they can shock the league by getting out of the play-in range by the trade deadline more players will be willing to play alongside LeBron and AD.

[@edgarsnake2857]

But that's the point: If you don't change anything, why should you expect different results? All they did was replace their coach with a guy that's never coached! It's almost comical. If one of their big 2 get injured, look out.
