is there some sort of... punishment? or other fear based requirement compelling people to feel the need to care so much about Bronny?
it's ok to not let this kid's existence consume your every waking moment. we don't need updates on his diet, his girlfriend's shopping spree and how he ties his shoes.

This isn’t just nepotism. The kid should have stayed in school and made himself more legit. The agent told everyone he was not signing a two-way contract. He only worked out for 2-3 teams and then basically they told everyone not to draft him or he was going to Australia. His talent merited none of that. It’s not fair to Bronny and it sucks really.

Why is there an espn headline about the 55th pick in the draft having slight knee swelling so he has to miss a summer league game? They created this stuff

It reminds me of when Lonzo Ball came into the league. People either loved or HATED his dad, who was very involved with his progression to the pros. There was the reality off-the-court stuff(he even had his own shoe brand for a while).
The main difference was Lonzo was a top prospect with more on-court repertoire, while Bronny is more of a fringe player right now - but the buzz and attention (both positive and negative) was very similar.

Not sure if this is the right place for this, but the Olympics men’s basketball groups are set.
Group A:
Australia
Greece
Canada
Spain
Group B:
Brazil
Japan
France
Germany
Group C:
Puerto Rico
Team USA
Serbia
South Sudan
Group A is stacked. USA got a cakewalk.
Is Jokic playing for the Serbs? Gotta think they're one of the better teams.

And would have had the staticians padding his numbers to make him look even better in the process!

They get Joker game 1. Serbs are probably second-best team in this thing.

I haven't been paying much attention but no Slovenia?

No. They went 5-3 in qualifying and finished behind Germany and Serbia, who qualified directly.
They advanced to another round of qualifying, which grouped together the best of the teams from around the world, that did not qualify, to have another go at it. They eventually got knocked out in this round by Greece.

they got wacked out by greece

lonzo was doing relatively well until his knee fell apart. lamelo got a max rookie extension. jury is still out on him, though a lot of that seems to have to do with his own injuries. not sure what the point is here...

who gives a ****? don't read it. i don't. the only Bronny info that i hear is the whining in here every day.
just don't read it, or mute the channel if it comes on.

I am simply a fan of people finding new ways to get big mad about Lebron.

As always, the universe has balance in the force between the fans and those that hate.
Kev4029
Footballguy
Yeah, I don't think there are any Bronny fans here. Just a handful of us that see some of the hate as misguided.

I think Canada and France are a tad better but it’s close. Spain is nowhere near what they used to be, I don’t think Group A is as tough as it looks on paper.

It’s going to be a really good tournament. Can’t wait.

I had seen it before, so I also knew what was coming. Hard to understand what happened to him. He's gone a total of 0 for 2 on 3PA in his time with BRK and has only made 43% of his free throws. His career 3P% is 13.9%. Of all the contracts out there, his $40M a year contract (to not even average 10 ppg) is one of the worst contracts I can remember. I wonder what he will get for a contract when his deal runs out after this season.

It is insane what happened to him really. And even worse that the Sixers chose him and Brett Brown over Himmy Butler.

Imagine being so good that you get to play in the league long enough with a player and their son. Like Spencer Dinwiddie.

Drew Timme went to college with 3 generations of Washington's, two of them played on the basketball team with him.

Timme was at Gonzaga long enough to play with John Stockton, Dan Dickau and Adam Morrison.

The amount of tanking this is year is going to be unreal.
msudaisy26
Footballguy
I can't wait. Think about any team with a superstar that carries their team. If he gets hurts they are tanking. So Dallas, Philly, Golden State, San Antonio, Milwaukee, Miami, Denver, Minnesota, Clippers, Lakers. If anyone of those teams lost their best player for the year I bet they would tank, plus the Detroit and Washington's of the league.
msudaisy26

That is a good point. I forgot about the unprotected firsts. So scratch a few teams off the list.

PHX could definitely implode faster than people believe (see Durant and Co. in Brooklyn). I don't think it'll happen in 2025 but I'm hoping
