Nepotism is ok until basketball is the job? Happens everywhere everyday in America but people want to give Bron and Bronny hell about it. I can't do anything but respect a dad that makes sure his son is taken care of.

There's people worse than Bronny in the league. Why did the Greek freak never get this kind of hate when he had his two brothers with him for the last ten years?

Who stated nepotism was ok elsewhere?
Taken care of? His dad is worth over a billion. He was set the second he was born.

I'm saying it is ok. And if it's not ok it's still happening everywhere.

He's worth a billion so he should tell Bronny don't be anything in life or don't get a job? Just live off dad? The guy got his son a basketball job. I'm not even a LeBron fan but the guy gets unwarranted hate when his career has been scandal free. He's a great Dad imo.

It’s not real. Fake. Daddy waited and played the sucker lakers (again). Lakers let Bronnys nepo baby contract become fully guaranteed on the 29th and the next day (30th), daddy bails. 😂What a stupid franchise for soooo MANY reasons.
That’s why they shouldn’t have signed him at all. Oh well, they can stash him in the G league for good now.

The Greek freaks brother was a legitimate European pro at least.

His son made off fine from streaming games, the exact thing he actually likes to do imho.

I didn't have a problem with his brother's getting a job either. I was just saying you never heard the same kind of hateful banter with their situation. It was always kind of a joke. It's always hateful towards LeBron.

Also the Greek freak isn't LeBron.

He may just be the most undeserving player to be in any professional sports league ever.
If he was still in college would he even be a top 100 player in the country?
False. If LeBron wasn't his dad and he performed the exact same way you wouldn't even know him to say anything just like a bunch of players you've never heard of.

So if Bronny goes and makes millions streaming games he would also only be doing that because he's Lebron's son. What can the kid do?

I respect him showing up to work knowing people say these type of things. He could just sit on his *** like a bunch of people and their parents aren't billionaires.

But that’s not the case. We DO know him. He’s been jammed down our throats and has shown time and time again that he is not skilled enough, not athletic enough to play in the NBA.

You knowing him doesn't make him more or less deserving than players you don't know. Not his fault LeBron is his Dad. He hasn't done anything on the court to make me laugh. Even LeBron has shot a airball or something before. Entire NBA is politics so I guess I'm just not that surprised with Bronny having a spot on a team.

Check out the videos flowing his brother. They hated on him too. Maybe not to that level but as I said his brother had a legit claim to at least get a shot compared to Bronny.

Of course not dude but you gotta research the characters of the story.

LeBron has a loud mouth and long, recorded history of hypocrisy. Him doing all this nonsense with his kid is the exact opposite thing he supposedly stands against.

Oh, while you’re at it, look at where he gets his merch made. LeBron James is not a very nice person. The Lakers bent over backwards for him and that’s how he treats them. Wild stuff.

No doubt, he should be doing that. He actually seems to do it because he enjoys it.
I have no clue when it comes to what Bronny does. I didn't know he was a game streamer person but if he is obviously he can play in the NBA and do that at the same time. It's the same as players that do podcast.

Brony's jersey sales alone will keep him in the NBA a few years. And the popularity. I'm not a big Bronny or Bron fan but a lot of people love them.

The merch will be made where it's made at no matter what. That's why Kanter got laughed out of the league. What are people not supposed to wear shoes because they are made somewhere. What brand shoes do you own? I'm sure there are some people on here that wear handcrafted snake skin boots but that's besides the point.

I never understood the so and so is a bad person because they have a shoe deal with Nike. Those people working like a dog will be doing that no matter what.

If they didn't have the little work from making shoes what would they be doing?

Another way of saying what you said: He's an ungrateful, self-centered POS.

No the worst was the selfishness of him being drafted, the Lakers could've simply signed him after going undrafted, but LeBron made sure someone who wasnt the son of a billionaire didnt get their name called on draft night whether they would've made the roster or not.

Man why become great and a billionaire if you can't even get your son one draft spot. I mean gotta be some perks expected right? Or what's the point. I just can't get mad at it because if Bronny wouldn't of been the last pick I wouldn't of known who was.

Just like I don't know who was the last pick in this year's draft or any other draft besides Chris Livingston and that's because he was a Cat. That was also a form of nepotism. That happened because of Clutch. It's happens every year.

I didn't realize the only job a young man could.work was a professional basketball player.
Who knew!
Look, if the Lakers were desperate enough to do that for LeBron, that's on them. But, I'd bet that didn't set well with a lot of players in the locker room. What if you worked your tail off to get to a certain role at your employer, and one day the bosses son is hired for that role without near the experience or skill set demanded for that role? Sorry, thats not cool. In fact that.will get someone fired in most of corporate America. Not sure where you are getting "hate" from that opinion.

Well if my dad was a billionaire I would want to go bust my *** really hard in the coal mines just to carve my own path. Not. I agree if anybody doesn't like it then the negativity should have always went towards the lakers organization. Not Bron and Bronny
