I hear what you're saying but he probably has the largest social media following of anyone in CBB.
Well…not sure exactly. He is shooting 36%FG and 23%3pt
It ridiculous, every game they are like USC losses by 30, Bronny has a sick layup and assist! Looks at box score: 5 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist in 25 minutes. 2-10 from the field.
Justin isn’t good enough to create his own shot. He has a nice shot as well, but we may never know because of his limitations.
My 21 year old nephew was with me last weekend, we were hanging out watching sports and Bronny James came up. He like most 21 year olds has his opinions formed solely by social media.. Hes like dude Bronny James is sick I can’t wait to see him play with his dad!
That makes me sad. No wonder social media propaganda works so well.
Kid is still convinced Lonzo Ball was better than De’Aaron Fox, too. Wild
In all fairness, they sort of give Shep the same treatment with his parents in the stands. Ofc Shep is 2x the player Bronny is, but still, I get it.
Guess he never watches the Kings lol. Let alone the Sweet 16 game he torched him.
It’s not remotely the same. Shep has earned the attention.
They don’t have an article every game about Sheppard, literally every single one praising something dumb when he didn’t do squat. The night all the top 10 teams got beat, Bronny James story led the stories on ESPN MBB page.
I was giving him a hard time about that and he still goes “yeah but Ball got him at Rupp!” Lol
I agree with you, ok? I'm just talking about the fuss over his parents in the stands really.
I’d have to agree, I legit think Bronny has talent and could possibly be a pro but the talk of him getting drafted and playing with dad will only happen because of his name and ability to appease LeBron, even Jordan didn’t have that kinda sway with draft picks.
He’s much better all around player than Marcus Jordan. He’s nowhere near NBA ready and will likely need another 2-3 to develop to get to that level. What he also needs is Lebron, Lebron fanboys, and the media to leave him alone and stop putting these expectations on him. Let him be a kid and develop at his own pace.
I figured you mostly did, but still. I feel very differently about guys who earn the attention vs guys who feel manufactured.
Maybe, there aren’t any numbers that back that up right now though. Marcus had a decent freshman year at UCF
I didn't say it was exactly the same. I meant that I see a similarity. But you're right, it's over the top and he doesn't deserve it.
Yeah not even close I get that. Mainly because it’s local people talking about his parents because of who they were for the University in the same sport. Nobody in LA is talking about Sheppard or his parents that’s for sure.
Shep is 2X the player as BJ???!! I’m not a math or statistical whiz, but I would venture to guess it’s a whole lot more than twice the value of James.
Come on. Even poor attempts at humor should make some kind of sense.
I laughed at this…because it’s kind of true.
This is 💯. Except Marcus Jordan was better. He averaged 8ppg his Freshman year.
Bronny James has played 10 games and spent the first 8 getting ramped up to play more minutes after going into cardiac arrest and sitting out 4 months. Comparing his stats considering he plays behind Boogie Ellis and Isiah Collier to a guy who played on a below average CUSA team isn’t exactly fair. Marcus Jordan was a 3 star recruit playing with a bunch no star recruits against a CUSA schedule.
