Why did LeBron do this to his son? People say it's a great thing LeBron did but is it really? Bronny would have been better off getting some more playing time in college and upping his skill level so he'd be maybe... possibly... ready for this moment..

He would've benefited from 4 years of college. But I guess Bron wouldn't still be in the league by then and it seems like them playing together in the NBA is the sole motivation for this entire thing.

All about LeBron's ego. He's been talking about playing with Bronny for how many years now? Talked about going to the team that drafted him, then saying he'd end his career on Bronny's team. Last year he was saying Bronny was DEFINITELY better than some of the guys he was watching on League Pass.

Bron just wants that manufactured father/son moment on the court.

He balled out at the McDonald's All American game

Bron may have put too much stock in him balling in the Hoop Summit & McDonalds games.

I made the thread but he said Bronny could play on the Lakers just after he had just played a couple solid games at USC. Rich or Savannah likely needed to tell him to let things play out/see the bigger picture.

Easy to charge the USC year on the heart attack if you believe he's that guy. However, even in HS his offense still needed more polish. He's not confident cause he's only had 1 year where he scored decently. That decent year was enough for Bron to be convinced.
