Bronny James Discussion

No Laker scored more than him tonight.
But he's not a NBA player, right?


Tonight he even passed the great Ben Simmons



Cooked the Freak. I see just like pops, Bronny gets a s*** whistle.


Didn't know full court passing could be hereditary. Turns out... it is.


He's in elite company with this one

 

Ox should eat a can of dried prunes after this performance!

 

Impressive

 

Good scoring night. I hope to see a 3 steal 1 block game from him. That type of performance will get him more playing time next year.

 

Looks like the hard work is paying off

Good to see him get some playing time and making good use of it

Keep it up and keep working hard

 

Nice job young man!

and just like that, we have another trade asset!

 

I think the kid looked good at points and a little out of control/sloppy at others. A little too much thinking with the ball in his hands which led to a few miscues. That being said, he looks more comfortable out there and when he decides to attack he has shown an excellent ability to get to the hoop. He still needs to work on finishing around the rim when the defender is close.

In the end, the G-league really has helped him get better for the big club.

 

So at the NBA level now the first “GLIMPSES” of what he’s going be are in and it’s pretty clear to me by next year, at the rate he’s improving, we have a cost controlled “impactful” rotation player for 3 more years. Each more impactful that the previous. That’s what the genes, him just “beginning” to mature and strengthen into a very early prime body, tutelage growing up as the son of an all time great and his own desire and work ethic is going to produce for the Lakers organization. Scoreboard 55th pick! Suck it haters!!



..... and here are the "glimpses". He just turned 20 5 months ago and had his one college season thrown a 120mph sinker that he at least stood in there and got wood on the ball.

 

Whoever bags on Bronny is a silly goose

 

Haters
He's already made NBA history

 

Laker for life.

 

^^^ added the YouTube highlights to the post.

 

The things that stand out to me are his athleticism and body control. He's not only fast, but he's never flailing around out there like a lot of rookies. I still can't tell what his ceiling is, but I have no doubt he will round into a serviceable NBA player at worst.

 

You fools serious? Bucks guarded him like I guard my 3 year old playing play hoops.

-36 +/-

Ok.

 

From Game Day as well.

OX1947:
Bronny is not good

OX1947:
He’d have to get his shot to a very good level and his handles too

LOLOL you would suck balls as a scout. You're so wrong on this kid. He's still acclimating to the speed of the game and IS catching up to it. "He'd HAVE to get his shot and handles to a "good" level". Like he's not already making lots of progress on both? I mean this in all sincerity your takes capping his career as never will happen and telling us the opposite of what we can see with his progress are on the SAME level with Slick defending Westbrook while he was stinking it up as a Laker. Get a clue.

 

i think when gabe moves on (guessing after next year), he'll slot right into gabe's spot perhaps seamlessly.

 

Guessing maybe at the deadline to take advantage of that expiring along with Kleber and (will Shake still be here?) .... unless we're able to get a player we want with them much earlier?

 

Kid is just starting to get used to being a NBA player.
He will continue to go through the ups and downs of development, but I’m willing to wait, and so are the Lakers.
I think he’ll be a good rotation piece by the end of next season.
Stephen A is an idiot.

 

yeah, if bronny makes a leap over the summer, you now have gabe/kleber to get a 20 million level player. not bad.

also not opposed to another year of bronny learning behind gabe, who's just a pro's pro.
