The commentary today is wild. It's always, he's the best in a generation. She's the best in a decade. He's the best on the planet. He's the best in a millennium. Lol You so called analyst just don't know how silly you sound.😅
The heatles formed when the Lakers trade was denied for Chris Paul... Their is a huge asterisk ✳️ on LeBron James career lol 😂 LeBron is a good player but overrated like all his travels that don't get called
Bro avg 4ppg on a bad team 😂😂😂😂 stop it
It’s alot of players that avg that an in the league now
how many of them came back from heart attack and didn’t play basketball for a year?😂😂 you idiot bro.😂 he was able to compete still even though he didn’t play for a year because of his health.😂😂 you all dummies forgot about that part
Devin booker came off the bench averaging 10, was a lottery pick and is now the best sg in the league
I would’ve asked that panel if bronny was a random kid and you had a draft pick, would you select him. I bet it would’ve gotten real quiet in there 😂😂
@@MR.__Gif was a 5th he ain’t a regular kid tho so it dnt matter
Patrick was a beast in HS back in Chicago.
Fact 💯 dude has 35pts av. Compared to Bronny 15pts. But they want to downplay him to justify Bronny's right to play in the NBA
Beverly and Lowry were really good college players. Bronny wasn’t close to their level of production in college.
He almost died
Shady just shows up on the set, no notes, no research 😂😂 he’s literally learning the topics as they announce it 😂😂
Yep he just be freestyling once Acho says what the topic is.. reason why I don't truly like his analysis bc it's typically nothing of substance as he not researching.
Man the things a 19 year old is going through not even old enough to drink
He good. U mad a billionaire getting drafted?
The fear of LeBron 😂 or trying to get that exclusive interview
Right
Not even fear. You just sound dumb
Shady is always so petulent in his demeanor. He looks bored 90 percent of the time and only becomes animated when it's his turn to talk.
Noticed that. and acho talks too much
He does that because he is highly insecure and inmature😅
Shady is the best part of this show. Acho blabbers on like he thinks hes some college professor schooling us on aspects of the sport only he can see. It's annoying.
@LakersNinersFan That show SUCKS,it should be canceled😞
@@user-pf8wk9mb5g I wouldn’t mind if they did cancel it. I can’t stand Acho.
Where are they getting these player traits from a player we haven’t seen play enough yet
Their co host Joy got more opportunities because of who her brother is. It’s always been a who you know world for many people.
True statement
Maybe, but Joy is a good host.
I never knew she had a famous brother. I’ve always enjoyed hearing her opinions though.
No in sports you earn it
right on facts joy is starting to get annoying
It's gone be worse when his lil brother enter the draft
LeBron needs to let his son become his own man and not play with him
Can just agree that he aint that good right now.
5ppg yall trying justify him being there
You don't get it. 🤣 He's a prospect one of the best in the country before the ❤️ scare last year. He's a
HS ALL AMERICAN
NIKE ALL AMERICAN
He balled out in both games.
Espn ranked him 20 out of 100
Last season was about him getting healthy. He doesn't need to go back to college. You clearly haven't watched this kid play.
THEY FEAR THE IDEA OF BLACK AMERICAN NEPOTISM.
@@akeemMagic01he shouldn’t have ben an all American
@@lilmark7210womp womp bro still getting drafted 😂
Crazy that Bryce is under the radar just chilling.
He’s no where near as good as Bronny.. if people are mad now just wait til Bryce gets a little older.. idk if Lebron even has enough power to get Bryce in the same doors that he got Bronny in. Bronny could at least justify it
Been saying that for years, Bryce is more LeBron then bronny
Bryce is more talented than Bronny AND he is younger. He will be way more ready to play in the NBA than Bronny.. and Bryce is 6ft 6.... And a junior...
Bryce is him.
Wait and see
@@curtisjackson3615 you are completely delusional 😂😂
Bronny just needs to go back to school, get that degree while improving your game. He simply isn't a NBA talent currently.
If you had the ability to get on a NBA now. You would, so why shouldn't he?!
@@SuperMogulit’s not his ability though it’s his dad
@@cortezwatson9212 So what, his dad gives him the ability to get into the NBA now. People are just jealous they can't do it. White people have been putting their kid's in position to win for centuries. So what's the problem with a Black Man doing it?!
I agree 100%
He can still get his degree if he goes nba
Kareem, Kobe, and Bill Russell had better careers than my boy LBJ 💯🇺🇸
Kobe?, don’t start capping cause he no longer here, don’t lie to the people like that!
@@XAVR21something about 5 more than 4 means something
@@kevinhorry4182 4 as the best player everytime > 5 only being the best player twice. Simple math but I guess you think Bill Russel the goat
5 is better than 4 @@hasanasheed88
No they didn’t stop it and shut up
Idk where they get this Bronny can shoot idea from 😂
What expectation!? Seriously there has been no sports media that has crazy expectation for Bronny . What is Joy talking about .They just go on TV and start talking. They are literally playing dumb on how the media works . Joy needs to GO !
Yep, strawman arguments.
You must be a furry😂
Once he is in the nba there will be big time expectations. And he has always had expectations.
I mean I've seen tons of different fans and medias making fun of him to try and get at his dad.
What are you talking about. There have been plenty of people putting those same expectations on him. It’s part of the reason bronny even made the comment himself
This feels like the moment before Titanic hits the iceberg. The players at his size and postions in the NBA are all on timing
I don’t see a happy ending to this
Nobody asked you
These folks are full it. Bronny James doesn't belong anywhere near an NBA combine. This is just plain silly.
Same with the McDonald’s game he made
Yall sound dumb 😂😂😂
Had 5 threes in the all American game … he belonged out there !!!
Eh I wouldnt say he don't belong near a NBA combine he jus shouldn't be anywhere near the draft this year
It’s a big deal if Lebron helps influence his son be the freakin 12th man on the bench, but CEO’s, presidents etc have been hiring or putting in calls for relatives since America became America over more qualified people. They don’t have a wealthy family where’s your cries for them? Try again
DUH it’s unfair to compare them…… one is an all time great and the other one not even 21 yet
Forget not even 21 yet…. He can’t even avg more than 5 points yet 😂
@@easaberebro brought up his age like thats the biggest factor😂😂😂
Great at what? Choking! Like he did against the MAVERICKS in 2011?
Here’s the real question: Why are you just talking about Bronny and not any top players that are gonna be in this draft?
Cuz none of them are LeBron's sons. In a weird sort of way though, what Joy is saying also applies to them. They're getting ignored now, and will be ignored into November, but over the rest of the 2024-2025 season, it will be up to them to show that shows like this SHOULD be talking about them. Like "You SHOULD be watching me, because I'm going to be Rookie of the Year material! ASK SOMEBODY!!" The court is the great equalizer. All jokes aside, on teh court, there is no LeBron Jr, no Shaq Jr, no nothing, your just a number once that whistle blows. Everybody is going to have to SHOW they belong. Whoever they are, whatever draft number they are chosen at, don't worry. If they deserve it, they're time is going to come.
😂 joy more smiling less talking
Because she has that all girl podcast
This kid ain't never going to make his own way his way is already set for him he just better hope to God he grows a little more and don't wind up just being a joke in the NBA
Why did yall stop streaming the show on CZcams?
Joy so wrong. The conversation around Bronny is not if he will be as good as his father. Which we know 99.9% he won't be. The conversation is if purely by his basketball skills alone right now, is he good enough to make it into the NBA. If he name Bronny Johnson, he would not have gotten invited into the draft combine.
I love hearing Joy say words.
No cap I actually do.
Everyone on this show miss the point. “It’s the chance he is giving” that others don’t
I’m sure he can be developed and play good based on pro level development…
He doesn’t deserve to even be in the combine, anyone else with his stats or body of work would not be considered or giving a chance to prove they belong.
wtf is joy saying
She falling off lately, she desperately need football to come back. So her takes can go from terrible to just bad and basic again.
Looks likes she’s getting pain by klutch. Lebron has his agency all over mainstream media
Most people think MJ is better than Lebron Joy! Stop the 🧢! Y’all should have been criticizing LeBron for pushing Bronny for his own agenda. Y’all know he’s not ready and so does everybody else!
Patrick Beverly averaged 30 in high school. Pat Bev is also 6’4. I know for a fact they haven’t watched Bronnys games. How is someone who shoots 36% and 27% from 3 a shooter?
Beverly is only 61
Definitely 6’1 😂
I was that “I had no idea that Jason was her brother” dude for a long time.
It seems like everyone on TV is afraid to say Bronny should not get drafted. He's 6'1" and avg 5 ppg last year. Why are these people afraid to say what they really feel?
💯
😂😂thianis comment" idk how good he is but he gone be in the league a long time" hilarious but true
I just love how they say Jokic is the best basketball player..yet he's pretty much ineffective on the defensive side of the ball. Fckn hilarious.
They say MJ, and Kobe!!!!
Perspective comes from recognizing that path is doinging for self.
I'm proud of you bronny James Jr prove nothing nobody either not media Raise beautiful mother and father
Feeling bad for a kid getting undeserved opportunities? I can’t relate…
yo I just figured it out Shady talks like he tryna juke somebody or set up the spin move
Stop comparing basketball to football!
I've been saying he's not NBA ready & the pressure on him is very great
He said Beverly like Beverly didn’t average 40 in high school. Beverly worked hard to get in the NBA and worked harder to stay in the NBA
High profile example of parent living through their child
Bronny needs to find a job that he is qualified for... professional basketball player isn't on that list
Beon began the Lavar Ball approach and then backed off but the media did not.
This specific convo makes all the sports talking heads look silly. His work did not speak for him in high school (where he was given a McDonald's All-America selection b/c of his dad) and in college where his stats clearly show he is no where near a top player.
His basketball game has never spoken for him to say he is great. Check Pat Bev's highschool stats and Collegiate accomplishments James Jones. You'll see there is a reason he became a great pro and why you should've never mentioned his game with someone who has NEVER accomplished anything on his own in basketball.
Thanasis was drafted in the nba without any nepotism. Thanasis was a lot better than bronny james entering his draft. Thanasis has played for the Greece national team. People act like Thanasis had no talent. He isnt great, but remember what Scalabrine said, it applies toThanasis, he is closer to lebron than anyone outside the nba.
I’m old enough to remember the media pushing Jordan’s son. He’s either good enough to play or not. Let it play out.
To the NBA naw I don’t remember that cutty nice try
Your wrong buddy, no one in the media said anything about Jordan son's and neither did MJ
FAIL
Different time. If they were around during social media, it would have been different.😊
MJ wasn’t trying to force his son into the NBA! He allowed his son to succeed or fail on his own!
They are full of it. The reason people are saying “because of your dad your here” is because in highschool he was a McDonald’s All American averaging 14 points. Then in college he is averaging 4 points a game in a bad conference and he is about to get drafted. They acting like he was dropping 30 points a game or something.
Boy clowned Austin Rivers career but 🥩🚴♀️Bronny😅😭HOWWWW
Rivers wss drafted 10 overall 😂
Acho is correct. Funny enough they all disagreed but just days ago they said the same about Austin Rivers when JJ was going off. So y’all are the people y’all “hate”.
Well it would be unfair if the media wouldn't compare him and his son
This is the best take I’ve ever heard from Joy
Why feel bad for someone who has such an incredible opportunity due to pure luck? The only reason we're talking about him is because he's Lebron's son. He isn't drafted if he's not Lebron's son. He's not talked about at all if he's not Lebron's son. Yes, expectations on him could get overboard, to a level he could never live up to. But that's why he should be thankful that he's even getting the opportunity in the first place because it is completely about his father, not because of his own personal skill and athleticism. It's something you have to accept when you're related to someone famous. There's millions, tens of millions, maybe hundreds of millions who would happily trade spots with you.
He just got Player off the Game today on ESPN. Looks ready.
There will be no divide because the only reason is able go into the draft is because of his dad. He was not great in high school and we did not see enough of him in college ,but he only averaged 4ppg. No other player with his averages would even be talked about or able to enter this draft right now. He cannot separate from his dad cuz that's literally the only reason he is HERE
My thing is what's soo bad about college? Cuz he definitely needs another year or 2 to develop
what are they talking about lmaooooo
Comparing bronny to pat bev at this age is crazy. They better go look at pat bev in college and high school
I like her point.. just making it to the pros in any sport.
People can say "you're only here for whoever" all they want. You're going to STAY because of what YOU do though.
Why Thanasis catching strays! Lol😅 he tries
Ahco was mid at Texas…
I didn't know her brother played Football and he's a Hall of Famer in that Sport
I start loving this crew! Joy Taylor is a real woman of steel!
Bruh 😂
The expectation and pressure mentality is gonna be brutal tha fact that it is So much talk going on Now !! No Matter wut he’s gonna Be Compared his Dad !!
Talk about LeBron James not being accountable
If he gets to the NBA and does his job all this will be forgotten!
What has he done that said athletic outside of the vertical
Shadys take was spot on
It matters when more deserving kids should have been given the opportunity.
I 100% agree with Shady. People have been hating but Bronny still has this opportunity. That's worth more than the hate💯
This is about PRIVILEGE. Haters do Not believe he will Earn his job. They think he "inherited" his job.
ppl should blame the NBA for even letting bronny enter the draft !!
The same thing was going to happen with Gigi & Kobe 😢; it just what comes w the territory no matter the profession it’s in all walks of life
The disrespect to Jovic…
Man I can’t wait till he proves everyone wrong….. can’t wait Strive for Greatness Bronny ‼️
Why are ALL these analysts lying for Bronny? Is everyone on the payroll? Folks scared to the truth about Bronny. Smh
Bronny is 5'10-11 or 6 flat at best. Why are people adding inches to his height all the time lmao. People listed the dude as 6'4 a year ago haha
He got measured in at 6’1”
Holler at me when Bronny gets an NBA title, that's all that needs to be said.
Here is my response to Joy: "You are correct Joy, he is not going to be another Lebron James, it is unrealistic and unfair for us to expect that.
It is also unfair for Lebron to make comments about him being better than some of the people in the league.
Its clear he's not ready, the league shouldn't have even allowed him to enter. His best bet would be to go to Villanova & learn the game.
The difference between Bronny and all those other guys is the fact that he will be drafted in the first round ONLY because a team wants lebron to play with them. If he doesnt get drafted and a team signed him as a free agent, thats another issue. But he is going to be drafted without ANY sign of being a good "PRO" Basketball player and its due to trying to get lebron to play with them. None of these other kids were drafted in the first, 2nd or 3rd because of there name.
I hate when people compare Thanasis and Giannis to Bronny and Lebron. Thanasis signed an NBA contract with NY way before Giannis developed into the Greek Freak. Which means, Thanasis was an NBA level athlete from the beginning. Bronny hasn't done anything in his high school or college career to be considered an NBA prospect besides being Lebron's son.
So your telling me an athlete with a somewhat recent heart issue, averaging MINIMAL STATS, not making any type of splash in NCAA, is going to be on anyones draft board or even getting a segment on any sports media if they were not the offspring of a Hall Of Fame & arguable goat? If this kid wasn’t tied to Lebron, no one cares who he is and it can even be argued that no D1 school is even remotely interested.
They wasted a lot of time stating the obvious….
Acho tried so hard to be messy thanks guys
As much as I loved my dad and loved living in his shadow, at some point I had to cast my own. I wouldn't have wanted him to try to keep me there after I was ready to fly.
Pat Bev averaged 37 in high school!!!!!!!! Stop comparing this kid to Pat Bev!!!
Speaking about the GOAT debate from someone's perspective who saw both players in their prime. If GOAT is determined by single accomplishment, it would be only when LeBron led the Cavs from 3-1 against historic 73-win GSW. Note that 2016 Cavs didn't have Scottie Pippen, Denis Rodman and Steve Kerr to name few.
Its funny to watch former athletes say they have no problem if Lebrons name gets Bronny a spot over another qualified athlete..when they know they would completely spaz if they lost their spot because of nepotism
Bronny ceiling is Ty lue
He would need 5 years in college, and maybe 2 or 3 years in the D-league. And then maybe he has a future as a role player who retires and has an 8 year in the pros.
NBA rosters are smaller than NFL rosters LOL
Daddy created the expectations
Great points Joy!
Bronny isn’t even good enough to be a starter. What are we talking about
