I will disagree with that,

As we clearly have seen people say they hate Bron and his son, whether it’s the Coli or twitter.

I agree the discussion never needs to turn personal and with direct attacks each other over this. shyt does need to stay in wax

Of course we all understand why Bronny is getting all the attention but that’s kinda part of the point. The attention is just cuz of the relationship, nothing else. Which that is the issue. No one has gave a damn about low drafted bench players and rookies for years.

And it’s not just Bron cuz the same was done with Giannis bros too but it seemed more light natured, some of the shyt with Bronny been intense

Oh no, Bron and his son get a lot of hate. I was saying I don’t hate Bron. I’m a big Bron fan and hope Bronny figure it out. And I’m not mad at all at Bron for standing up for his son. I’m also not mad at Stephen A Smith though for commentating on his son and being brutally honest. And yes, he’s receiving more attention than other players at his level, but those players don’t have fathers who are the face of the league. I believe it’s disingenuous to be perplexed about why Bronny revives so much attention. It’s clearly because he’s Lebrons son

Jordan clarkson only played 5 g league games and literally balled out in actually NBA games his rookie year dumbass :mjlol: There was no “growth” he was ready rookie year to be a rotation player.
If Bronny was on team similar to the one that drafted Jordan. Im pretty sure Bronny would be in rotation.

The Wizards would be giving Bronny 15-20 mins a game

Nothing i said was extreme.

You have ZERO idea what any of the picks passed like 15 have done.

Nobody is talking about how they don’t deserve to be in the NBA.

Anyone talking about Bronny is only talking about him cause who his dad is.

For a 55th pick he has overachieved at this point.

I agree with everything you said, but that’s just how it’s always been, and how it will be. Like if Marcus Jordan was in the league while MIchael was in the league, he’s gonna receive a substantial amount of attention based on his dad being so great and being the face of the league. I’m sure we have more Bron threads on the coli than we do about the other top 15 picks as well

Attention is fine.

Biased, unfair hate is not.

View him as a 55th pic and he’s doing pretty fukkin good at this point.

Im a Bron fan but I agree.

I'm not a stan so no need to be biased....

Bron has to take some of the responsibility for PUSHING the Bronny thing the way he did.

Bron is coming off extremely lacking in self awareness if he can't see his part in all this.
Any father is gonna hype up their kid that’s what he’s supposed to do.

But if we are being honest. Since bron made that tweet there’s lots of players that have flunked out of the NBA or are on a bench/G league team doing less than bronny right now.

The tweet wasn’t as egregious as some people are trying to make it, as their justification for attacking the kid.

oh definitely

And that’s all I’m saying. I would respect the coli haters and guys like SAS more if they was just honest and say “we shytting on Bronny cuz he Bron’s son”

Not sit here and hide behind his numbers or productions like he taking up a spot.

Cuz if that’s the case, going back to players I called out early

Anthony Gill has been in the NBA 5 seasons

is averaging 1.8 ppg and played 39 games this season and no one is saying the same shyt about him that’s said to Bronny.

Cuz no one really cares about what guys like him do, people only care Cuz it’s Bronny

oh also that same guy is making about $2.4M a year, is 32 years old

A good amount of those dudes were getting buckets on buckets in HS/College and earned that chance

Bronny truly has no business being there. He didn't earn it. There's no data to show that he has

But it is what it is
