Move down to the bottom of the first and draft Lebronny. Hes supposedly staying in the draft and Lebaby said it’s his dream and priority to play with him. Lakers will take him in the 2nd. We will hold his rights hostage and will ship him to any team of Lebrons choosing as long as he leaves in free agency.

ADs bitch arse gets left in the cold (no way he stays as healthy again) and our 2025 Lakers pick becomes absolute gold….

This is how you win Griff.

Someone would do that before the Pels if that were the case (maybe Lakers at 17?).

LeBron is going to agree to play in Birmingham?

His best move would be to step down as GM and let a real GM that knows how to manage an nba team do the job.

He’ll be on the lakers bench for the year before that happens. Lebron will make sure of this before he re-signs.,

They not burning one of their only assets on Lebronny. Hes not even a draft able player. They will use a 2nd on him tho.

He could be a solid defensive talent. He's athletic enough, he has a wingspan that gives many guards fits.

He's draftable, just not a 1st.

This board will melt down but making LeBron come to NOLA would be the only way this organization could win a championship

Makes Lakers worse and us Pelicans better? Im all for it. But most likely you can just buy a late round pick with how the draft this year is

No what they should do is let it leak out that they are taking Bronny at #21. If he is there he will be a Pelican. That way the Lakers waste 17 on him

Bronny measured 6'1.5" at the combine and scored something like 5 points per game in college.

I don't see a lot of hope for him to become a successful NBA player.

If this dude was named Bronny Smith, no one would know who he is. He wouldn't have even got a scholarship to USC.

It's kind of sad how blatant the nepotism is. Lebron should be embarrassed.

Certainly

His best comp seems to be Davion Mitchell. But Mitchell had 3 additional years and 2 additional college seasons played. Will be difficult for the necessary improvements Bronny needs playing in the G League or at the end of the bench on an NBA roster.

No one is ever embarrassed by nepotism. This isn't a Lebron thing.

Giannis had 1 of his brothers on his team with him for years and the other may have only been on rosters for teams to warm up to Giannis, as neither are really NBA players, and folks haven't complained nearly as much as they're already complaining about Lebron.

Because he has the power to get his son on a NBA team and fulfill his dream?

I get Lebron hate on a lot of things- don’t really get why he should be embarrassed by this if teams are willing to draft Bronny because of Lebrons influence.

Because he's not good enough. There are thousands of guys that deserve a roster spot and have earned it on their skill and hard work. Not because their dad is a major bitch.

Thats life. This seems like a deeper issue for you than just basketball. Nepotism happens everywhere in almost every family owned business or corporation. It happens when kids get into colleges based on parents being alumni or in a frat. It happens with President Trump and Biden kids as well. Its a part of life almost in every aspect.

And again Lebron helping his son achieve his dream is not being a bitch.

You have posts over the last few years complaining about Giannis too, right?


Belichick, any posts about him? The Patriots searched the entire world to find the best safety coach, then DB coach then the best OLB coach and coincidentally, the best person for all those jobs was his son. Oh, and when his son moved on from safeties coach, who was the next best safeties coach in the world.... Belichick's other son.

Trade BI for Trae Young (main pieces of trade) and find a defensive minded center. That would make this team so much better.
