Lebron and Bronny make History

[WildcatforLife1965]

Damn I was coming with that ^^^^ did he teach him the flop and 14 step layup?

The NBA is and has been a joke for a while now. No real rivalries. Mercenaries chasing rings. The best players in the league wear skinny jeans and women's shoes. Additionally, it's a league that subsidizes a failed WNBA league for 20 years, plays tournaments in lame COVID bubbles, ignores China's human right's violations while amping up faux racial outrage in the US with "say her name" jerseys.

And all of it has worked. The NBA is bigger than it's ever been, and it's major market target audience is more gullible than ever.

It's all about cash flow now, and we need to face it that the average moronic NBA fan would rather watch Bronny go 1/4 from the field while playing 12 minutes with his dad than watch some other rando go for 33 points and 12 rebounds.

It's an entertainment industry; and clownish as this might be, it's entertaining. People will tune in to watch this farce of a tandem, and given the current state of the NBA, I guess I'm left wondering why this move by LBJ and Bronny surprises any of you. The league died the second LeBron left Cleveland the first time.

Did you see the Joel Embiid story today?? What kinda moronic weakling clown.

 

[Cat_Man_Blue]

Some of you all supporting a guy that said "Ain't no party like a Diddy party"

 

[UKWildcats1987]

Bronnie is the team mascot.

JJ gets kudos from me for not playing him much and actually caring about winning the game.

Oh yeah. AD had 36 points for those of you questioning any UK connection. He should be the story, not this clown show.

They were on the court for 8 minutes together last nite. I support a father supporting family above all else.

LeBron: "It's always been family over everything. For me, I lost a lot of time because of this league and committing to this league. Being on the road at times, missing a lot of his things, Bryce's things, Zhuri's things, so to be able to have this moment where I'm working still and I can work alongside my son, it's one of the greatest gifts I've ever gotten from the man above and I'm going to take full advantage of it."

What does this have to do with UK?

 

[maysvilleky]

They will likely retire together too

LeBron will buy interest in a team and his son will benefit with a 10 year career averaging under 5 pts per game!

I might have written this myself:

 

[yabbadabbadoo]

what a joke
Who cares about anything James does

 

[NociHTTP]

Yeah, historic alright. Whiniest player ever, and most undeserving draft pick.

It was not earned. Fake stuff man

 

[PopesReignOverCardinals]

This was manufactured history. Bronny isn't an NBA talent, but daddy made it happen for him. Congrats on the "accomplishment" to the James family.

 

[NociHTTP]

Well said. I know the difference between right and wrong, and that guy is just flat out wrong.

 

[NociHTTP]

Nice. But has nothing to do with UK basketball?

They keep bringing that stuff here, it's trolling at this point.

 

[know1]

I know the mods here are basically nonexistent, but there is no point in posting this here. If you want someone to talk to, call your mother.

And Bronny had almost nothing to do with this. Other than stay alive this long.... which was shaky for a bit. This was LeBron making history.

 

[Jamal Sunburn]

Did you see the Joel Embiid story today?? What kinda moronic weakling clown.

Grown men being upset at other grown men's work schedule. Crazy times.

 

[KYExtemper]

And there's never any nepotism in politics, at least on a certain side, lawyer's son, daughter and her husband in WH, daughter in law Chair's the grand ole party.

And? That doesn't in any way refute that this thing is ridiculous and wrong, just as those things are.

 

[Fox2monk]

They made Nepotism history all right.

 

[Fox2monk]

I might have written this myself:

They are sending Bronny to the G league soon as it starts. He don’t even belong there. Griffey Jr. was actually better than his dad, it was special.

 

[UKWildcats1987]

The little punk didn't play last night.

JJ has beat the Wolves and suns. Maybe he isnt as terrible a hire as I thought.

AD dominating.

Why bring politics into this?

Lakers assign Bronny to G League South Bay team

The Los Angeles Lakers have assigned rookie Bronny James to their G League affiliate, South Bay, and sources told ESPN that he is expected to debut for the team Saturday against Salt Lake City.

I see nothing honorable about a father buying his son a place on an NBA roster.

Yeah. Why can't the other son play, too?

 

[know1]

Does he have a daughter? Maybe they can make "history" too by putting her on the team and letting her on the court. Or heck, make even more "history" by adding his wife and any other kids and be the first family to comprise the full starting lineup for a team in an NBA game.
