There is no one in the world who is more qualified to give a take on how Caitlin Clark is doing than LBJ.
😂 stop glazing..lebummy is trash...always will always has been...no accountability, no fundamentals...blame game..ruining the lakers and the NBA daily...stop it
@@thisguy8373the fact that you don’t understand what the OP actually means with his comment just shows how ignorant of a person you are. Please seek help

@@thisguy8373Haters gonna hate. Why don't you work on yourself instead of hating on others?
The Spurs lost 17 straight games this year with a "generational player" and there wasn't NEAR this much smack talk. 🙄👍
Cuz it was towards his teammates who wasn't giving him the ball and he still was balling so it's kind of not the same
Cause wemby is clearly a generational talent u can see with you lt with your eyes Caitlyn Clark clearly isn’t if you watch her playb
@@desmonddavis3422why are y’all still running with that narrative yall one or two times he didnt get the ball out of the games he played. I’m a spurs fan and keep with everything they do even when he’s playing great we are still going to lose because we are just not that good right now. Has nothing to do with not passing the ball to someone.
cause people worship non-americans but americans hate eachother.. how do you not know that? joker and luka arw worshipped by americans but tyler herro and sabonis arent even respected by americans.. we dont support our own.. we rather prop up giannis than kevin durant .. we rather prop up drake than kendrick.. americans have become anti-american for the longest.. look at our president and our migrant crisis they allowed to spit in the face of america... theirs no more true americans out there.. bunch of pawns
I'm tryin to understand the generational talent from Catlin. I'm not trying to hate Im rootin for her. But generational talent WNBA wise. Is C.Parker, Maya Moore, B.Stewart etc and they all dominated the league immediately. I see a perninal all star in Catlin.
Finally he said that about his teammates being assholes before his 1st day even haha

Great analogy “Be a horse” if people don’t know, when horses are running a race they don’t see much of anything around them. 100% focus straight ahead
the blinders they wear also help lol
@ETGNorth83 we are humans tho
Horses can't dunk tho
To be fair all his team mates said that before he got there. Once they realized he could play that stuff stopped. Same with Bird his team mates gave him hell befor3 the first practice calling him the white savior after his first practice they realized ok he can play and that stuff stopped quickly.
Lebron is overly qualified to talk about Caitlyn C.
I won't lie I'd never watch a WNBA if it wasn't for CC lol
You and the other new millions of TV viewers my friend (including me) 🤝
So you only watch the Indiana Fever?
@@Lord.wallaceyep, tried watching other wnba teams and I couldn’t get past the 1st quarter. She’s just so fun to watch
@Lord.wallac yep cc over and them to lose parlay is a pretty safe bet these days
@@Lord.wallace Yes. They are the team that has Caitlin. Caitlin is the only one that shoots the Logo 3's, and she is fun and exciting to watch. What is wrong with that.
The greatest endorsement Caitlyn could get.
Problem is the ladies playing now don't want her in the sisterhood. At the same time they're hurting ratings which will get them more money. Caitlin is being targeted for no real reason. She doesn't have to be the GOAT but just let her bring excitement like Turasi.
An endorsement from Jordan would mean more
I really don’t get the Caitlin Clarke hate
trailblazers are often either hated or admired. mostly hated.
Sure you do.

Bron has always shown grace to the new talent/generation coming into the league.
Because he actually loves basketball and wants to see everyone be great.
No he hasn’t. But he kept it on the court. He’s gives work to all the top rookies. But it all in fun.
@@ChrissyAnn85what new talent has LeBron not giving grace too?
Seems like he’s a good dude.

This a great thing about Bron. He always gives people credit, and he likes everyone’s game.
And he likes blaming and getting coaches fired

@@thisguy8373 imagine being a tryhard and commenting hate under every comment🤣
@@PriceySweater You do know that KD is about to have his 7th coach in 2 years right? That's 2 less than Lebron's entire career. Now that's a coach killer.
Stop glazing Bron
Talk that shit King!!! To all the ADULT weirdos hating on young people you should be ashamed of yourselves. You know who you are!!! Knock it off and let the young bucks shine.
I'm a Lakers fan but the media coverage and hype around Bronny is insane. Yesterday, the NBA Today spent more time talking about this 19 yo kid who has started 6 college games, than any one of the ACTUAL NBA Players that are in the middle of these Conference Finals.
@@daveclark8337Is that Bronny's fault though? When are y'all going to realize that pro sports are businesses first, entertainment second, then the actual sport third. The sooner you realize then you will understand the media's role in all of it
@@michaelkelly4314spot on! It’s a business but people don’t get it. Hence they get sentimental. It’s so weird to see people hate on a kid who almost died a year ago but got saved and is back on the court to pursue his dream. If anything he should be applauded for being so brave
@@michaelkelly4314only because you watch that media. People act like they don't have a choice with what they watch.
@@daveclark8337when are y’all going to realize they do it because it gets people attention. Like how dumb to you have to be to not realize they do it because it makes them money
I'll be honest, I don't follow b-ball really, but I listen to lot of athletic and other podcasts, and I can't tell you how refreshing it is to hear two people give each other space to finish their thoughts, room to breathe and just straight up respect, without interrupting, barging in, or stepping all over each other to score debate points. I really loved this video and both LeBron and JJ's view points. I'll be coming back for more for sure.
To me, the WNBA is where the NBA was in 1979. It was a lot more parochial, the popularity was relatively low, and even the NBA Finals was on tape delay. Then, two guys named Larry Joe Bird and Ervin "Magic" Johnson got drafted. And they brought excitement to the NBA and made it national. My HOPE is that Caitlin, along with Angel Reese and Cameron Brink, can be the female "Magic/Bird" coalition that lifts WNBA popularity in America.
no way. I'd bet anyone money that they won't ever get to where NBA is. The level of talent is just too weak. They're just being pushed like crazy by media and dumb people are just eating it up.
Extremely wishful thinking
@@sammyttheg412 admittedly, very wishful thinking.
Then in a fews years, the real goat of the WNBA will arrive and be the Jordan
@@MichaelDeLaRosa 🤷♂️ Who knows… Anything is possible. But when you observe the videos of female basketball players and the rapid enhancement of their skills, it’s only a matter of time.

I watched an Indiana Fever practice on CZcams because of Caitlin Clark. I also love watching Angel Reese. In the words of Rico Richie: "If You aint Got No Haters you aint Poppin".
Shout out Darius Miles lmfaoooo

Darius Miles and Carlos Boozer 😂😂😂😂
Lebron James, one of THE GOATS, I agree 100000% with what you said.
There’s only one GOAT and that’s MJ.
@@RonnieDellarsinaFanboy there's plenty of GOATs
Like the football goat (Mr. Tom Brady) once said "Laser focus!" If Caitlyn does that, her play will be what people notice about her, and not the pettiness, hatred and jealousy of others.
The way the WNBA women are treating Caitlyn is the same way the NBA men treated LeBron when he got to the league
The difference is Lebron gained the Respect from his game. He made immediate impact statistically. Catlin has a chance to be great but her numbers needs to match the hype as well.
19 points,5 rebs and 5 ast a game as a rookie is not making an impact right away.@denjiurameshi4699
@@TheOneNeo390 Haters don't like facts.
Cavs were 33-46 his first year. Even the best take a while to make a big impact. Don’t be a hater.
@@TheOneNeo390 and how many turnovers and efficiency...
It would be cool if LeBron reached out to Caitlin directly and helped mentor her.
You sound delusional, that would never happen
minset wise cool. but in-game curry would be the better mentor.
@@kwamebrownofficialhe’ll naw
Steph is already on the assignment
you dont reach out to people and offer mentorship. thats not how mentorships happen or work
Love these conversations that show so clearly the intelligence and maturity of both of these men. I didn't give Lebron all the credit he deserved simply because I'm a Warriors fan... but I've come to appreciate him both as a basketball player and a man. JJ is awesome. Love everything he does.
Lebron's comments were well thought out, and he certainly speaks from experience. I've gained an extra amount of respect for this man.
This is a great take. The media is what got me curious about Caitlin after announcing she broke Maravich's all-time record. So I watched the WV game to see what the hype was all about. She hits her first 3. Then she hits another shot. Then she throws a dart for an assist. I'm like the hype is real!!! It is really fun watching her play and I haven't missed a game.
The thing is with charters, and sellouts, the exposure, and everything she's bringing to the W, it exposes us to other great W players too. For example I like Reese's game, I like Thomas and Bonner from CT, I like Stewart from NY, and Jewell from Seattle. I even put on the LV vs LA game and saw these 2 great players named Plumb and Hamby and rookie Brink. Players and a league I would never bother to watch before.
So it's not like oh they all should be thanking her but just be aware of the impact and perks and don't be hating. Some will say oh she needs to pay her dues first and yeah many rooks do go through the tough stuff. That's what people were saying about Sean McVay too. Oh he's young he needs to pay his dues before winning a SB. No one is calling her the goat in the W yet, we just love her game. Passing, 3s, court smarts, competitiveness, humble, all in one.
And for others to say a few players are trying to hurt her, no they aren't. They would be stupid to hurt their meal ticket. It's kind of an initiation. They're like let's apply some pressure and physicality to throw her game off. We're playing hard to win, plus we don't want her bombing 3s on us or getting her team going. 🏀Go WNBA!!🏀
4:17 I literally was saying to someone that they are in the middle of a rebuild they not going to win much games and they was like “but they back to back #1 picks and Clark supposed to be the ‘goat “. These really don’t know nothing.
Exactly! That's the biggest issue. People set expectations for CC and the fever that was unrealistic. It's clear she has to adjust to the talent, and the team has to grow together. The players are praising her and telling us everyday she's going to be fine. The media is making this weird as hell.
Right. It took Jordan a few years to start winning and he’s literally the goat
this is completely false. They are 100 % trying to win every single time they step on the floor. They're just still YOUNG and learning. Winning takes time. Even lebron didn't make the playoffs in his first season.
People said CC was the GOAT of the NCAA, NOT OVERALL, YALL DID THAT LEAP ON YOUR OWN!
Really? I thought she was the generational talent that changes the narrative right now.
Watched my 1st WNBA game ever cause of CC 💯
It's like golf when Tiger started playing. A lot of old timers were jealous because he's getting all the attention. But he did helped the PGA big time.
And some resented the attention he got because of his his race - great analogy
I'm watching Indiana fever highlights on CZcams AND the WCF. That's something I never thought I would do lol
Great take and perspective. But he'll get hate fot it.
I mean it’s Lebron James, people will hate him just to hate him. Doesn’t matter what the mf does, people will be on his ass.
I love him for it!
Let them hate! ❤😊
Hate going to hate
I disagree with the man I consider GOAT. A large segment watches the WNBA because of the dispute between Reese and Clark, not b/c of Clark.
Lebron documentary gone be epic 😂
I can’t wait
Hey Im under 20 years old and "epic" might get clicks ... Zzz
Epic fail 🤡😅

@@jonathanbrenner4736 man went from a kid from Akron to one of the greatest to play a sport. Be hard to fail showing that.
The turnaround time is egregious. They don't have time to heal, recover, take a shit , decompress or anything.
cant imagine how tired the rookies are
Always great to see your stream JJ. Miss your POV on ESPN but keep at it Sir.
I think it's the competitive nature in athletes that makes them think that a rookie can't just come in and be better than veterans and i don't mind it if it's healthy, good take Bron and better advice
It's not just competitive nature with CC. Get real. The former players and stars are jealous she is making more money before stepping on the court . Being white just drives them insane because of the way whites are treated in almost all aspects of life.
They used Bron as a marketing toy to push the game forward but at the same time players were talking mad crap about him. And of course the public expected greatness immediately.
He talking about that Carlos boozer video 😂
Im no large WNBA fan, and I get that the WNBA has to balance the fact that the women play at the same time as the men in college but have to play over the summer/fall professionally as to not get overshadowed, but its crazy to me that there was like a 1 month turnaround from the WNCAA tournament ending and the WNBA season starting.
Absolutely mind boggling! It’s pretty likely to assume Caitlin has either practiced or played a game every day since September/October when their preseason practices started at Iowa.. she has GOT to be tired!
Remember ppl lebron haters do not take days off and neither should you they been hating him for 25 straight years now and when he retires they wont
25 years? Cmon - nobody knows him in 1999.
36 player got drafted and only 13 player made it on a team this year that crazy
It's time for a few expansion teams...they should have at least 20 teams in the WNBA
@@logicalbrother they are adding 2 more teams golden state valkeries and a Toronto team they could expand the roster spot to 15 also
@@logicalbrotheryeah they were barely afloat before there’s no way that was going to happen. They have a few coming and could be on track for more
LJ’s great advice to CC. This is why he is one of the greatest players ever, but more importantly, he is a super person. I hope CC hears your words.
It was terrific advice. I had mixed feelings about Lebron before this, but his sensibility on this issue is very impressive. He knows of what he speaks.
People have been talking about how great this podcast is for the sport. I think this is one of the best most real and relatable segments Bron and JJ have brought to the table yet. Including the NBA and WNBA. He’s talking from his soul as a dad w/a player gunning for the league and heartfelt experience from being a number 1 draft pick and facing all the pressure, criticism, and expectations that came along with it! Thank you for this gem and real glimpse into this world so many of us cherish!
Two names that come to mind that critisized Lebron were Carlos Boozer and Ricky Davis.
I'm glad LeBron said this And it was clipped for CZcams. Great question JJ
All of a sudden people who hate Lebron like him now because he said something good about CC 😂.
Lebron became a hero when we went back to Cleveland and won a ring 🤷🏾♂️
He said something yte America wanted to hear
Nah, they hate the guy so much nothing Bron does will make them like him lmao
Naw I really like the fact he called out all these WNBA haters who will be CASHING IN LIKE THEY NEVER HAVE IN THEIR LIVES because of CC. I wish Bron would address issues like these more often rather than play to a particular fan base or political ideology. This was the most genuine, COMMON SENSE critique of all the idiots trying to tear down CC while their pockets get fatter because of her. Respect.
@@BCNick22 Face it she's basic and average no matter how much people try to put her on a pedestal. There's some kid at a park somewhere better than CC.
This is excellent. Please tell me some one is getting this to Caitlin. Excellent, mature, helpful commentary.
The sad irony of all of this is that in the NBA it's usually the rookies that are unprofessional and have to mature into the league. However, in the WNBA, it's the, so called, vets who are unprofessional and acting like children while a rookie is not only, single-handedly boosting the league's popularity, but she is also developing into the role model for professional behavior in the league. The rest of the WNBA players should truly be ashamed of themselves. Real talk! Clark is the future!!!
Look for the common denominator of who the unprofessional ones are. #facts
Also, Lebron is showing the difference right here. Wemby's team struggled this year, but the vast majority of NBA players talked about him with respect and built him up. They played him tough on the court, but publicly they gave him professional respect. To me, this is the difference.
Men support each other better. Women tend to be more destructive to themselves.
Is the Cavs teammate they talk about at the end Carlos Boozer?
Boozer, Miles, and to a lesser degree Ricky Davis were the culprits.
Hey I had never watched a wnba game until CC's Fever played on cinemax and I didn't know much about her except I liked some fo the pictures I had seen of her intensity. I loved it. I like the nba but I'm a playoff watcher of bb so she's got me wanting to watch wnba.
The Clark hype got my attention. After I decided to take a peak, I have since done the following things I never used to do: Watched NCAA games (men and women), watched WNBA games (my local Chicago team). I'm sure I'm not the only one. She's good for the game.
This new wave of Rookies Caitlin Angel and Cameron are making the WNBA watchable
As a fan of the WNBA since its inception, it has ALWAYS been watchable...to fans of professional basketball who understand the nuances of the game and the differences between the men and women's game.
Imagine Shannon is just watching these with disdain and jealousy 😂
Thats funny at the end, a lot of people were saying that originally that hed have trouble scoring in NBA.
The King has spoken, agree with everything he said here. Appreciate seeing someone of his status giving a well nuanced description of what's going on.
CC has very high BBall IQ and a great attitude.
She sorry asl. Angel reese and Cameron brink is doing way better than her
WNBA or MNBA vets will never collectively embrace extremely talented rookies. LJ is right. Blinders on. Stay the course. Just focus on the work, and be kind to yourself.
I respect Born so much for this!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 not the championships, being a father, a husband, never getting in trouble, lived up to the hype. But this is gains your respect for🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠
Doesn't matter what you thought of him before. Two things are true: 1) He's a great player, and 2) He made a LOT of sense. PERIOD.
Caitlin Clark through 8 games as a pro currently leads a professional team in: Defensive rebounds, Assists, Steals, Blocks and Points. Her shooting is 50/31/88, she recently had a 30/6/5/3/3 game. She's doing pretty okay in her nascent career. Most importantly shes got people watching.
BRON talking to his new head coach 😂😂😂
I always been an LBJ fan never a team fan only a Lebron fan
Same- Go Suns!
Same.. I like how he forces gms to trade young assets and draft picks & gets all his coaches fired.
Big fan
I've been watching the WNBA since 2014 and for the first time I've seen a WNBA game full attendance.
I feel this as an electrician i got that same heat entering my first few years in the trade but like lebron said gotta but them blinders on bend that conduit wire up them panels and just work on my craft.
Exactly he said it he had to deal with animosity from his very own teamates. Greatness recognized Greatness. He experienced the same Bull 💩it
Yes! Have you seen how Caitlyn's OWN teammates treat her? Have you heard even ONE teammate speak up for Caitlyn and defend her? No, and that's pathetic. That's why they are losers.
I bet Black Twitter is furious about this.
lebron is a part of black twitter.. its people like you that group people together for centuries that make people group together and then your blind to just seeing people individually because your traumatized from some argument online or something u had with a black person.. get over it.. everyone isnt the same, and everyone on "black twitter" doesnt think the same either.. grow up

Was I the only one wondering what Bron was sipping and if that was his wine collection in the background?

LeBron: I wouldn't say they had hate for me but they had animosity
Animosity = intense hatred 😂🤦♂
Lmao I was looking for this comment
He should have used the word tension.
Animosity = feeling of dislike and ill will. Hatred is a more intense feeling which usually means you want the person dead. Hope this helps. I even looked up the difference between animosity and hatred to make sure I was right. I’ve seen no definition of animosity as “intense hatred”
Abhor is probably the word you’re thinking of
@@ryanseco5207 u looked at the first sentence of the Merriam-Webster Dictionary I bet. Read the next sentence: “ill will or resentment tending toward active hostility.” I’d say active hostility is pretty hateful lmao.
Byron Scott just talked about putting 18-yr old Kobe Bryant through the ringer. They even brought back Coop to test him. Because of how Kobe responded they admired him. "This kid is going places." Same happens in life - in school - in jobs.
Boom JJ, guys. It kills me to see production issues from a podcasts this big. 😕
Great words of encouragement and wisdom from someone who has experienced a long, challenging, but fruitful journey through his career. Hopefully, they will follow his advice.
Caitlyn seems to have her head screwed on straight. She's handled things well so far despite everything being thrown at her. She will prosper in this sport.
JJ definitely still is the cocky white dude from Duke. Ain’t nothing changed 😂
Didnt he tattoo chosen one on his back? Im confused lolll
chicago in NHL had last years #1 pick playing for them, media raved about how good he is, and he is good, the team didn't even come close to making the playoffs. it takes years to turn a team around
Not saying she is MJ but even he took time to succeed. It took YEARS.
I promise you there is 0 hatred towards CC, it's the media who we're having an issue with. Caitlin just wanna hoop fr, she don't even care about the media attention. Her team 0-5, she frustrated about that, she wanna win games lmao. But y'all are so concerned about her feelings, it's weird. And if she truly is the reason that things are gonna happen to the WNBA, then there's a deeper fundamental problem that needs to be addressed. Because Sabrina Ionescu was the last "Caitlin Clark" that we saw, and I don't even wanna say it like that because that's disrespectful to Sabrina. Sabrina for those who don't know, is the all time NCAA D1 leader in triple doubles, all time Pac-12 conference leader in assists, and the only player in NCAA basketball history with 2,000 points, 1,000 rebounds, and 1,000 assists. So she also had crazy hype coming out of college, unanimous #1 pick, Nike signature athlete, and arguably got the best signature shoe in the game right now, and she's only 26! It's not like she played ages ago, she's still cooking in the league rn. Kelsey Plum (still in the league) who held the NCAA career scoring record before CC, but she still holds the NCAA single season scoring record, oh and btw a back to back WNBA champion. Breanna Stewart (still in the league) 4 chips in 4 years at UCONN, 2 WNBA championships, and an MVP and she's not even 30 yet. I named these 3 specifically because they also aren't black, to refute the argument that because CC is a white girl that's why they're giving her all this attention, nahh I don't think it's that. But I definitely could've named A'ja Wilson, Jackie Young (the highest paid player in the WNBA), Skylar Diggins, the list literally goes on. Y'all in the media are the problem. The Indiana Fever played the Seattle Storm last night, and in the highlights on ESPN, they're showing ONLY CC's highlights. She had like 20 in a loss. That's cool and all, that's a solid game from any rookie. But oh yeah, they forgot to mention on the other side, Jewell Lloyd had 32, 11, and 6 in a WIN....I feel like there should be more talking about that rather than CC's stats in a loss. And for all the people saying well Caitlin still dropped 20... individual stats are cool for a short period of time, but it really don't even matter unless you win. Ask Donovan Mitchell. Bro literally had 40-50 pts in multiple games this season, but the Cavs still lost and now he on the couch watching the Conference Finals wit everybody else. So what good did that do him fr.
You fail to understand that WNBA is an entertainment company. All those players you mentioned before Caitlin Clark obviously didn’t entertain the fans! So you can write an encyclopedia of how great these WNBA players are, at the end of the day they suck because no one paid to watch them! All it took was a video of Caitlin Clark in the airport and WNBA got charter flights. At least wait til the white girl get everyone paid and then hate of her, but hate on her now!!??
I ain’t reading all that
Let me break it down for you.The WNBA is trying to get eyes on the product and make money.Its about what sells.Right now that's Catlin Clarke.The NBA did the same thing with Bird and Magic.
@@redmoney4155 but you see what you said..Bird AND Magic. Not just Bird, not just Magic. There's plenty of players they can choose to market just as much as Caitlin, that's our point. WNBA has a partnership with Nike, why wouldn't they push Sabrina, one of the best female Nike athletes in the sport and arguably the best signature shoe amongst men AND women. Seems like a smart business move to me.
@@boblaw4488 lmao ok...why you telling me
Watch the LA Sparks games, Cameron Brinks teammates haven't been passing her the ball when she's wide open. Alot animosity from older players
Great pod cast
Caitlin will Inevitably be the most Influential Women’s Basketball Player Ever
& Bronny will inevitably be a Championship Level Elite Role Player in the NBA for his Entire Career
So like LeBron said (without saying bc the losers of the world are 95% of viewership of his professions😂),
Basically Ignore all the Outside Noise that come from PPL who will never even begin to reach their Full Potential in Life and Focus on your Work and Continue to Prove PPL wrong with each Step you take
Greatness & Hard Work is always Discredited by PPL who will never deserve or receive Credit for Greatness or Work Hard & Take Risks for Greatness💯
just how it goes……….
(especially on social media)
Sounds good, doesn’t work.
@@bovedli yeah “doesn’t work” but LeBron just gave Caitlin the watered down Blueprint of him blocking out outside noise and setbacks to continue improving
“Doesn’t work”, but Ja says he does it and it works before he comes back on the court and be one of the best players in the world again after one game
“Doesn’t work”, but after they said KD would never reach a high level of play after his Achilles he’s still at that high level of play.
lol it “doesn’t work” though…….
Blocking out losers & remaining consistent in the work you put in will forever work
@@mellamohazy if yall Lebron fans think so highly of him then you should probably realize that he is a generational talent. Like one in every 20-25 years or so. Even if Bronny does inherit some of that skill, and puts in the hardest fucking work of all time with the most money someone has ever had to prepare himself for the NBA, there is basically zero chance for him being at least close to being a player near the caliber of Lebron or the top 20 players in the league.
Now. Are we really talking about a future “role player” ? We don’t even talk about today’s role players god damn.
Bronny gonna be in the league for 3-4 years, maybe 1-2 exta years after his dad retires and then this fever dream will be over.
@@bovedli just went into an entirely different convo but okay
1st off, KD is my favorite player of all time not a “Lebron Fan” just a Realist
And PLEASE point to where I said Bronny will be close to the player Lebron is?? And PLEASE point to where I said he’ll be a top 20 player??
And yes, I believe Bronny will be an elite role player his entire career who helps a team excel like a Derrick White, Naz Reid, Bruce Brown for example, those type players who are & were very important to their teams who aren’t talked about by the casual fan but to fans of the NBA that understand how they affect the game they are all appreciated and talked about 💯
And to address your last part
Only Time will Tell……..🙂⏳
@@mellamohazy he would be nowhere without his dad pushing him. 2 more years in college to develop and if he does develop that’s great! But as of today we are talking about a guy who averaged 4 points in college and survived a heart attack within the last year.
Honestly we would not be talking about him if it wasn’t for Bron. So I stop talking about this now I’m sorry. I wish the best for the dude.
I need Bron's shirt! It's fire!
For someone who has never had a day in college LeBron's vocabulary is as deep as his game. His delivery and concept when narrating an idea or perspective is much like an esteemed academe scholar. His absorption of processing of information should really be studied. I hope LeBron gets an NBA Team so I can, in my lifetime see a grassroots program designed, molded, and engineered by greatness.
It's insane because the players aren't hating. They remind us everyday shes going to be fine. The coaches remind us it's going to be fine. CC is tough. Let her grow and build a connection with her teammates. Next year, i have no doubt they'll be fine.
Better have this same energy for Juju in a couple of years from now 💯
They won’t b/c JUJU is not yte, which doesn’t fit JJ Reddick’s race baiting victimhood mentality.
Thank you LeBron for saying exactly what I said. She literally got drafted by the worst team. What do people expect her to do right away?
Exactly. She's not a miracle worker. It takes time for her to jell with her teammates, especially since many of them aren't in her corner yet. But she'll win them over eventually.
And they wonder why the women's game is not advancing the way they would like for it to advance. I'm an Angel Reese fan, but there is no way in this world that you should leave the most popular female player in the world (Caitlin Clark)off the USA Olympic team.
I realized it was just lighting, but, at first, I was like, "WTF is wrong with Bron's face." (along, what would be, he more natural beard line)
Carlos Boozer ! 👀
He could've still been relevant today if he hadn't jumped ship. I still smh about that
Swindling an old blind man like a scammer.
He’s right bruv. WNBA be hating on Caitlin
Name 1 player that has hated on Caitlin. Y’all are so fkn weak and messy bro.
I saw a wnba shirt in the wild for the first time ever, it was a Clarke shirt lol.
5:53 🤣🙌
We seen bronny James at the lakers facility that’s a good sign for Laker Fans we getting him for sure
Nah he less than mid bruh
Steph Curry used to get up shots as a toddler inside the Charlotte Coliseum and he's NEVER been a Hornet🤣🤡
That's said you'd want bronny... Kid stunk at USC
No way did Lebron just compare Bronny to Caitlin Clark. Caitlin Clark actually earned her spot on a professional roster. Bronny is trying to get in through nepotism and riding his fathers coat tails.
He was comparing the animosity... Like shown above ^ (bronny obv not on same level as CC coming out of college but he has the burden of being LBJ's son and with that comes TONS of media attention.
I don't feel sorry for Bronny, the added attention is objectively a blessing and a curse tho. Will he get more opportunities? Yes. However if he gets absolutely torched in the league he will be headline news. So while there definitely are "benefits" of being LeBron son, there is also a lot of extra pressure he is facing that nobody else can relate to.
Bottom line is his Dad can't play for him so if he isn't good enough he will be exposed quickly, and I doubt he wanna ride the bench like Giannis brother cuz that would be humiliating
Way to miss the point, jackass
if thats how you interpreted that, I suggest English Comprehension classes ... and just to be sure, re-sit your GED.
🏀 yes CC bringing fans BUT I wish they were BBALL fans they only like ONE player & trash/bully others thats not good for the league. There are a lot of talented players out there: ...players frustrated after a WIN...reporters keep asking about the player that hasn't won a game... CC is a GREAT SHOOTER...puts up numbers but has alot of work to do. If dhe doesn't win...Her fans will stop coming soon if they don't get their way to try and damage a league only to prove a by point of THEY support CC only and not the WNBA
I can’t listen with the audio being this bad
Do you guys realize that there are podcast out here that are criticizing Lebron for saying " keep your mouth shut" in this segment 🤦♂️I mean, some of these people are just ridiculous. Lebron said nothing negative about CC. Some of her fans are a little too far out there lol
You try to start something that isn’t there he said that referring to girls and guys like you saying negative things about her just run your race don’t say nothing back and work hard your stats speak for themselves!
@@KenG826 How? Im talking about podcast like "Black and White." The guy is on there criticizing Lebron for this interview although Lebron said nothing wrong, nor did he criticize CC.
This is why LeBron James is the GOAT
Because he can speak?
@funnyme3022 no because he is living rent free in your head....lmao
I would love to see Lebron & Steph do a pod even if it’s just for team USA I know it probably won’t happen
WNBA needs to start appreciating good things to come instead of hating on something good 🤷♂️
Old school, but Shawn Kemp had the best attitude I’ve seen as a rookie. He kept his head down. Said almost nothing to reporters. And learned everything he could from the vets around him like Nate McMillan and Gary Payton. Loved the Super Sonics!!
What are you talking about? Kemp was drafted a year before Gary. Gary was no vet... Nate was like 25 -26 not exactly a seasoned vet or an important player on the Sonics team. Kemp was 18 yo and change at the time and wasn't even close to being high profiled as a rookie he was picked 17th as a highschool kid with a super athletic body. Like the Giannis pick in 2013.
Huh?! 😂
This is a wildly dumb post. Shawn Kemp was drafted in 1989 and Gary Payton was drafted in 1990.
Shes bringing more eyes than ever before but people are hating on her
Their are some players who when they step on the field of play their just being their elevates everyone's performance on the field with them. Everyone's game goes up a notch, ie Joe Montana, Kurt Warner, Tiger Woods are just to name a few examples of their presence. And the payoff for this is everyone benefits from their talent, the fans, the players, the owners and all of the supporting team that puts the venue together. Everyone makes money, everyone has fun and the overall sport becomes a better product to watch and enjoy.
That was the first reasonable thing I’ve heard Lebonda say since he was 18. Wow
