Bronny James Says He'd Start LeBron, Bench Kobe, And CUT Michael Jordan
Is LeBron sitting next to his son here telling him what to say like Rob Gronkowski does for Baby Gronk? Because there's simply no possible way that you can answer this question by CUTTING MICHAEL JORDAN. I have zero problem with Bronny starting his old man. I mean, the guy got him a job that pays millions of dollars, he owes him a whole lot more than a spot in the starting lineup. But Kobe over Mike.......? Come on, now. Then again, maybe he's keeping Lakers fans happy because that's his new team....
*If LeBron was actually giving Bronny advice, it should be to not answer dumb questions like this that will go viral in a bad way. Instead of giving him advice like turning pro and demanding which team he will go to.
Look my official stance on the Bronny situation is actually that I genuinely feel bad for him. He's taking a lot of heat on the internet streets right now like he's the one orchestrating his drafting by the Lakers like he was the one pulling the strings of the NBA puppets that his dad and Rich Paul own. But the fact of the matter is he's a 19 year old that is just listening to his Dad, and I blame him 0.0% for being drafted in the 2nd round. And I blame the Lakers 0.0% for drafting him in the 2nd round. LeBron is good enough and has been good enough to allow him to choose how they spend their worthless #55 pick in the draft. But does he realize he's only creating more unneccesary drama and unneccesary hate for his son? Bronny James should go to Duquense and average 20 ppg in the A10 next year with a coach that values him and allow him to succeed. Now he's going to the Lakers where any time he enters the game, fans are going to remind him he's only there because of his Dad.
And what is Bronny supposed to say? Is he supposed to acknowledge what everyone knows? No, he's saying the right things, and he's being clowned because everyone knows it's just not true.
Why would Rich Paul tell Bob Myers to say that live on television? Tell other GMs he will go to Australia instead of playing for them if you want (as if they were going to draft him before 55 anyways), but why publicize it? It just makes Bronny look worse and worse, when in reality he seems to be a very kind 19 year old kid.
