Scottie Pippen's son was better than Bronny, but he didn't make the Lakers roster.

That 1 ring was not worth this headache

Pat Riley was that one man that did not let LeBron take control.

Why is the lakers going through this with lebron. He is not a laker legend. Why wasn’t it the cavaliers going theough this bs with lebron.

“Everyone on the ground !! Hands where I can see them. Now, hand over the keys and nobody gets hurt” - LeStickUp

Bronny is gonna retire the same year as LeBron.

I’ve been saying this, Lebron is really holding the Lakers back. They could go on to their next phase and have a younger team but he is holding them hostage. Draft this guy, hire that guy, do this do that. Like bro this is too much man. I know a lot of lakers fans who want Lebron off the team

LeBron is the most entitled narcissistic athlete we have ever seen. People are catching on. They see what Klutch did to Russell Westbrook. What’s going on with Bronny is child abuse.

Remember when Lebron faked a hate crime? That really happened 😂😂😂

Tatum won with Brown, Jokic won with Murray, Steph won with Klay, Giannis won with Middleton, Kawhi won with Siakam. Most of them were originally drafted by their team except Kawhi, n none of them demanded a 3rd superstar.

Bronny wouldn't even start at Uconn. The Lakers are embarrassing..

I can't wait until he retires

LeBron didn't like the trade rumors last Season so he made them sign a non-trade clause lol. Honestly, this guy has to retire...

2024 - This may be LeBron James' LAST SEASON 2025 - This may be LeBron James' LAST SEASON 2026 - Lebron SIGNS for max....Besides, you know Lebron aint gonna let Vince keep that 'most seasons played' record. 🤣🤣🤣

Lakers management is a shame. Giving that contract to Lebron past his prime. And then we have to sign his son. Disgusting.

The second apron is no joke. The penalties changes the way teams have to deal with contracts and trades. Once you see how restrictive the second apron is, you can finally understand why my Clippers let Paul George walk for nothing. Even if we got players back, that means it’s still adding salary. Second apron is basically like a hard cap and it’s going to be in full effect this upcoming season. Look at Klay. Warriors only got back 2nd round picks. You don’t want salary to keep coming back. LeBron and Lakers fans don’t really understand all this. They just buy Kobe or LeBron jerseys and are quite clueless about how everything else works. Read up what Lucas Hann wrote about that second apron last summer. Once teams reaches that second apron, that franchise becomes handcuffed and it can be for years. It’s not like before. Second apron is actually helping poorer owners like Jeanie Buss and stopping richer owners like Steve Ballmer and Joe Lacob from overspending. The problem is, LeBron isn’t exactly helping Jeanie here by taking a max deal. He doesn’t get how the new CBA works. To him, it’s just pay him and his son and then play victim when his team fails again because he didn’t have enough help.

These organizations make the fans think the teams are theirs, but continue to give the fans their ass to kiss…showing that they don’t care about you 😂

We HAVE NEVER EVER 👀 SEEN A PLAYER AND KLUTCH SPORTS HOLD JEANNIE BUSS AND THE LAKERETTS PRISNORS AND HOSTAGES. THIS IS CRAZY BUT THE 🎪🎪🎪🎪 IS ARRIVING IN OCTOBER 😂😂😂

How? They are the owners. They know what he generates. Hell just like Mike when he got the max he deserves more. It's their job to build a roster not his.

Lakers need to tell Lebron we drafted your coach, signed your son , we're giving you 30mil a year. Take it or leave it. He's not leaving he's son who just signed a 4 year deal .

Hostage? Buss, R Paul and the father son duo realize they can make more money (billions) off marketing and merchandising than contending for a championship. It’s easier.

It is the Fan Base who is tired of waiting and holding Rob accountable for being MIA during off season and trade deadlines. Fans want a title run roster! All GMs are doing their jobs but Failure to Launch Rob!

Absolute clown show

"The blossoming sport of the WNBA." If anyone is making it bloom, it's Caitlin Clark. The league has been irrelevant for 27 years and never turned a profit even one year. Caitlin brought her own audience in from college. Stop it.

If you Jennie bus don't you want your franchise back?

they treated that bubble ring like as if they're gonna hold a dynasty 😂

Pelinka has not done his job PERIOD till Pelinka gets fired they will be stuck where they're at.

Nba is Hollywood entertainment lebron james is their biggest star that society hates 😂

This is not nepotism. If this was nepotism, it would be about Bronny. This is about LeBron and his legacy as well as the Lakers saying they had the first father son teammates. Bronny is a pawn in this. He is the guinea pig. Hopely He doesn’t come out of this with mental issues. He is a 6’1 combo guard that can’t play the point or shoot. There is only so much hiding him you can do.

Clearly there is no man running Lakers management

This will be LBJ legacy. He always has to keep the attention on LeBron

El Floppo & Klutch has turned the Lakers into The Liars Club & Daddy Day care in less than a week.

First, LeBron's brand is not greater than Jordan's. Secondly, with great power comes great responsibility. This era has seen the players have the most power than any point in NBA history, and they have completely abused their power.

LeBalco is the master of controlling the narrative. Remember when he was swept by the Nuggets he immediately made the story about his possible retirement.

I think robs inability to be a GM is holding them hostage.

I’ve literally been saying this for the last two years. Finally people are starting to wake up.

These pundits kill me with the notion that players should "give something back" to help the organization. Folks complain about LeBron inc. being the LeCoach and LeGM so now he has to be LeCapologist. Criticize LBJ for whatever BUT Rob or this front office shouldn't get a pass in all of this

They don't have to pay him lol he don't have gun to there heads lol yall say anything the hate and jealousy is real

jordan aint go this hard his last days on the wizards this is shameful 😂💯📸

Next up Bryce. Then keeping Bronny and Bryce in LA for the next 40 yrs. Load them up with Balco

I think brons plan is to buy the lakers and continue giving his sons contracts

People keep saying he’s holding the Lakers hostage. The Lakers don’t have to do anything they choose not to. They still have AD. But no matter what you say Bron is still the biggest draw in basketball.

Y'all only get views hating on LeBron and bronny as of late. You guys only speak in bad faith. It's super weird. Now look at these comment sections. Y'all also encourage nastyness. It's borderline disturbing 😊

laughing at the lakers lately lol

Basketball is over. Owners never should have let players have this much control. Music died. Movies dies. Sports going down the same road.

LeBum needs to retire...enough already

Here's another thing that you guys aren't thinking about or care about for that matter. We lost Kobe Bean Bryant and everybody was saying when the title for Kobe in 2020! Not only did we do that we also made Jeanie Buss the first female owner to win an NBA title! If you don't think that Jeanie Buss doesn't appreciate that and understand the finances that LeBron brings in..... You're not paying attention!

Lebron brings drama instead of championship. The more drama the more money.

LBJ - how's that school performing in Akron?

It really doesn't matter what the Lakers do it's like this no one got more championship than the Lakers butt Boston so really doesn't matter what the Lakers do at this point so all you haters that don't even live in Los Angeles just shut up LeBron doing him and I ain't mad at him do your thing LeBron

And another part that you guys don't understand is that Laker Nation made over 515 million gross two seasons ago a lot of that had to do with having LeBron James on the team!!! Superstar sell tickets sell jerseys in other things! Most of you don't understand that. But you guys praise Harden in bed PG-13 Kawhi Leonard and others for failing miserably! Smh

Jerry West MJ had way better brands LeBron is a hall of famer but will never be like the other ogs

I think Lebron and Jeannie Buss are having an affair

Did that fool really just say that Lebron s brand is bigger than Jordan s brand was?

Yes let’s blame the player people think lebron is the owner of the lakers 😂😂😂when the lakers have a whole owner she’s the boss she has final say and some laker fans say we want bron gone you know AD will be gone too right but like we have good owner and gm to do a rebuild😂

All you people campaigning for Russell Westbrook, need to not make excuses for Russell Westbrook he is underachieved on his own very well!

Throwing Caitlyn Clark under the LeBum bus is a bit of a stretch.

Every superstar player should be putting pressure on their GMS to make the team better! Not sure if you guys continue to ignore the first seven years in Cleveland for whatever reason, but that's where not trusting the GM to bring in the right players comes from...

LeBron is using the Aaron Rodgers playbook that he used at Green Bay. Every year threaten to retire unless he got his own way, wanting only certain players, wanting only certain coaches,wanting people in the organization fired, sounds familiar doesn't it.

Can someone tell me what the lakers are without lebron?

No I have another question! Is LeBron James runs everything in the Lakers why didn't we get Ty Lue or Monty Williams? He went to three straight finals with Ty Lue and won a title. Monty Williams had a good relationship with Anthony Davis and LeBron James endorsed him too! Still haven't gotten the serious answer from that.

Since I'm on a roll let me ask a question real quick just to get an idea of where some people are coming from. How did you feel when we missed the playoffs for straight years in a row with Kobe on the squad? And he got the max the last 2 years of his career?

Lakers should make it known out loud to everyone they want to trade Lebron. No trade clause is meaningless if the owner makes it known they don’t want Lebron anymore. Get magic saying lakers could be good if they got rid of Lebron. All that needs to happen.

The last part of this podcast is more feelings than anything else because they obviously don't know who Bronny is. If you really dig deep and go back to find out who LeBron James Jr is you'll know that he talks like this all the time. Yet in their opinions it sounds like LeBron James senior? Smh

Lebron has spent his career jamming teams up by taking 1 uear contracts... by signing a 2 year, with a player option, gives Lebron the power to hold your team hostage in off season, like he does every year, of you don't do what he wants....

I don't think I've ever seen a network where whoever the host is for a specific topic is determines how the show goes 😂😅 Chris is -pro Lebron Douge and company- Anti Lebron...all on the same network. It's interesting to hear the different takes. I think Bronny may have not signed up for this, seems to me its more of LeBron's dream than his. But.... it may work out for Bronny! 2 things he needs to do. 1) Stay off social media 2)Develope kyrie like handles. At 6'0..Definitely going to need the handles for finishes at the rim. You guys are making me root for Bronny honestly 😂

On top of putting pressure on the GM's if you are a good GM for president of basketball operations then he's not putting pressure on you! Pat Riley being the best example of that!!! Go back and look at all the other GMS from the beginning to the end of LeBron James career, and only then may you understand why he doesn't trust GM's to work in good faith without putting pressure on them! Smh

Bron brings in billions to the franchise and still plays well.. business is business

And they are talking about bronny getting prepared for media like every athlete doesn’t have that

These guys don’t understand the Lakers contracts on the books.

RIP Kobe All he wanted to win and bring him players that were dedicated to rings, LeBron just wants his family and friends to have a job

They didnt do this much for kb248. Lakers dont want to go into obscurity

Has done this with every Franchise, this is your goat?

What if LeBron is setting up to buy the Laker franchise and have both of his sons in the backcourt🤔

Real fans don’t watch the lakers because of leflop James

Now, every players need to pass the ball to Bronny. If not, they could be traded to Hornets

Give me eight million dollars and I'll get up on a podium and say I've been dealing with doubters my whole life too.

That's Jeanne's doing, she enables him. Bron is a gimmick for the Lakers, nothing more. Lakers were never serious about winning when they first signed him.

After Lebron retires, he will own the new Las Vegas team and put JR on there 😂😂😂. Bronny is set !!

Is the Mic on: LAKER FANS DONT WANT TO HEAR THIS. They are COVERING THEIR EYES AND EARS FROM THE TRUTH. Lebron is BRINGING THIS FRANCHISE TO THE GROUND!

Finally some true from the media

LeBron doesn’t care. To him negative attention is better than no attention.

I think he gave it to Ginny Buss, that’s why she’s allowing him to do whatever he wants. Oh boy 😂

Getting hard to defend LeBron at this point

Bron has a plan when his much more talented son will enter the NBA. The script has already been drawn.

Where was this energy for thanasis?! Or Scottie pippen jr or Luke Walton or max christie ?!! Yall are mad bronny got a connection it’s life it’s not what u kno it’s who uk

I hope everyone understands why there are people who don’t like/respect Lebron

I Blame JEANIE for Babying LeBron and Giving Him Everything that he Wants. Jeanie should Be Impeached and Removed And Rob Pelinka. As Long as LeBron is Their Lakers Will Always Be Doomed 😢 Once Lebron Leaves LA FOREVER!!! then Players Will Be Signing Left and Right and Removing Bronny Aswell. GET THEM OUT OF THEIR...and Start Winning Playoff Games and Get back to thE NBA FINALS AND START WINNING WORLD 🌎 CHAMPIONSHIPS 🏆🏆 again

There's an end game in play here, Lebron wants to buy the Lakers and what better way to do that than by first destroying its value and then buying it it sounds crazy now but watch this space

All I hear is the rabbit has the gun.

My boy kerry

Laker show is a full blown circus 🎪....and watch JJ and Davis be lebron scapegoat....dude should just retire already people are tired of him

"Dealing with this my whole life"...always a victim no matter how much is given.

Bron destroying his own legacy with his own ego

Anyone who thinks lebron is not the problem. They have issues. He is overpaid and is not even top 15 all time. Serious

Every year player option. Lol. Wants to be in the attention every year, you will NEVER be the goat but the LeFlop!!!

Do you think if Mr Buss was alive he would allow this Circus, the Los Angeles Lakers have become a Joke and the Laughing stock of the NBA unfortunately 😢

The Lakers aren’t the biggest brand lol

Who in his right mind would turn down 50 million dollars. See you same time same station in two years

Wow so are we saying all parents that helps their kids make it is bad. If u believe that and u are a father I feel sorry for u. Your job to to help your kid make it. Or maybe that’s just me. Plus do u think the lakers owner would be the owner without her dad
