No the truth is NBA media coverage is trash because they focus so heavily on one player in an attempt to convince you he’s as great as MJ. The NFL does a way better job at promoting their entire product. The NBA is very WWE like nowadays. ESPN/NBA force feed you Lebron instead of promoting their younger talent Anthony Edwards, Tatum,Ja etc. only Lebron fans want to hear about that dude 24/7 and many fans have LBJ fatigue and can’t wait for dude to retire.

Bronny compares to Tebow? Are these guys nuts? Tebow had the collegiate resume and actually has a winning record at QB. Tebow earned his way to the NFL, but he wasn't a strong QB at that level. Tebow's passing wasn't nearly as good as his legs, but guess what? He still was able to win before he flamed out. Bronny wasn't a top player in high school. Bronny had no collegiate career. Bronny has a medical condition that nearly took his life just last year. Yet, y'all got the freakin' nerve to compare him to a Heisman winning QB that won NFL games despite playing a position that he wasn't suited for at that level? Bronny has no peers in this. He was literally gifted McDonald's All-American and the 55th pick of the NBA draft by his father.

I don't think this comparison is fair to Tebow at all, regardless of how badly he fared in Jacksonville.

Despite that, he was a 2x BCS National Champion, a Heisman winner, and AP's College Player of the Year. Bronny will never have that level of success coming out of college, and the jury is still out on whether he can even be a journeyman or a competent role player in the NBA. This is a totally different situation.

The only reason he got a chance in the minors or at TE is because of his name and fame. He was bad in the minors and worse than a joke at TE.
