Bronny James Does NOT Deserve to be DRAFTED!!.. 

Why does it seem like they just discovered the word "nepotism".

Es$o has a valid point. Those young men can do so much more than play basketball.

You got one side arguing the "use" of nepotism and another side arguing "how" to use nepotism. Apples and Oranges. So now you have a conversation/debate that goes nowhere. I don't think there was an understanding of what they arguing.

"you gotta be good" if bronny was good then it wouldnt be considered nepotism lol

Giving up the opportunity to play in the NBA to do something that the everyday person does is wild. Esso’s point is basically give up your dream that is plausible for you because it’s easier to do something else. At the end of the day he can always pivot if he fails or he can work towards another career while in the NBA why throwaway the chance to make the league especially when you have a billionaire father.

I don't blame parents in Entertainment, Sports, etc. for giving their kids an in their industry.

Bryce is BETTER, he will make in the NBA!!

He was right about D Wade averaging 10-12 pts a few years. FACTS

It’s not what you deserve, it’s what you negotiate.

Dwade was never trash. Even in old age he played limited minutes but was highly efficient for a 2g. Lebron should have never traded him. I guess dwade wanted his son to earn it. He probably could have forced his son onto the miami heat or bulls if he really wanted to.

Yall overthinking it. Bronny just wants to play ball mane. He loves Basketball. The whole goal is to make it to the NBA .If it dont work out for w.e reason in the NBA his dad can put him in another position to win. but the goal for every ball player is always the NBA!!

Bronny needs to expand his horizons! God did not give him his father's height or talent to be a top-notch NBA player. However, his father is a billionaire with amazing formal and informal business connections. Why not leverage his wealth and privilege to start a social media management company for NBA and WNBA players?

Nah but North West was a great example 😂😂

Welcome to life…..how many ppl have their kids in situations where they only in the position of success because of their parents

Females are amazing at making wack points but making it sound good

He has a good point.

I still haven’t seen it…Bryce being better than Bronny

It’s beautiful for them to play together. Even if it’s for 1 game. Bronny is better than a lot of scrubs we’ve seen play in the league, so he will find his way.

She right 💯😂😂

Sports is enough for lacks. Education and business is what lacks should do😊

There’s no reason to get upset if you agree with Emma, the bar has been so low for everything in society. The excuse is always entertainment and the masses buy it. Quality in modern western society is dead.

I agree with Esso

I definitely agree with esso. I have no idea why bronny wants to go to the league. You come from a family of extreme wealth there’s so much more he can do and get more money instead of breaking his body on a basketball court

Nepotism is stupid when you’re not capable of the role ! Shit sad because it’s kids who’s killing themself and that spot will be taking by someone whose not qualified

The young man he will drill all yall eso look like his hoop dreams been shattered 😅

What kinda bullshit take is this?? Who tf is he to kill somebody's dream? Everyone deserves to pursue their passion to the fullest. If Giannis brother can get on a roster Bronny damn sure can.

Esso is 100% right. Nepotism in sports needs a certain level of talent. In other areas you can learn while being granted an opportunity. In soprts you have to be really good at the sport..nah mean?

Nepotism is always bad. So why emulate bad behavior? Doing so makes the emulator just as bad as the the one being emulated. You can't copy bad and get good. If you have a bad copy of a music album or movie and copy it, it ain't gonna magically fix what was wrong with the original copy, you're just gonna end up with two bad copies instead of one. Same principle applies here. Morals and values go out the window for the 💰 with most people though.

I agree, if my dad was a billion dollar athlete and next in line to own a team. I am not trying to be no damn player, I am trying to position myself to be ready to become owner/GM. Fuck playing basketball lol

Man y'all don't know wtf y'all be talking about! If thanasis can sit on the bench & cheerlead why tf can't bronny? Who tf is y'all

She doesnt understand male sports and male mentality. In sports in is 100% performance based. You dont get the same respect sitting the bench compared to being the one scoring

Bruh with the hat with stones on it had no valid points bruh he a kid following his dreams cmon man SUPPORT the YOUTH with ENCOURAGEMENT not saying he doesn’t deserve to be in NBA is sad lowkey your an adult

Esso the only one with sense

nepotism is good and all but one example is giannis antetokounmpo and his brother in milwaukee. thanasis is terrible. wen giannis retires or stop playing thanasis has no chance at making any team

I think what is alarming is that only powerful families as Lebrons will be able to have that nepotism but for the everyday people who don’t come from affluent families, those kids are having opportunities taken away. So what I’m hearing is that all these athletes / entertainers kids can jump the line the line in front of my kids and it’s acceptable bc they have money smh. Stop trying to normalize nepotism bc it’s simply unfair and especially in the black community. Y’all cappin about it’s been going on in the NBA but fail to name anything to this level of nepotism. Gianna’s brother was drafted to the Knicks bc he grinded and he didn’t even join Giannas until 2019. Austin Rivers won two championships in HS as the guy and was one of the top players coming out of HS as well as college. So no we ain’t ever seen no shit like this and it makes the league look like a joke bc nepotism doesn’t put the BEST ppl in positions therefore most things that are lead by nepotism don’t usually work out nor last. If the kid was eatin and had the clear skill nobody would be upset but none of this happened organically bc with sports ppl can watch your game and see if your a dude or not and it’s clear he isn’t developed yet so why force the issue unless this is not about winning.

Es$o point only stands if you believe the kid won’t be good..many young men enter the league and they blossom into who they are supposed to be. It happened with Lamelo I believe Bronny will excel in the NBA

I agree with esso. I dont think Bronny shouldnt use his nepo with the NBA. I think if youre not skilled enough to play NBA then go a diffrent route. There are other Talented kids that dont have a father like Bron to get them in the NBA. I think Bronny saying he just wants his name called shows how much entitlement he has. Its not a good look for the James family. What are you teaching your son? That you win regardless although you wasnt good enough. Thats not how you get respect from your peers

What are we doing here? Literally, Jeanie Buss became the owner of the Lakers because of Nepotism. Saying Bronny shouodnt get a shot because they already have money is ridiculous, considering how Lebron manages money already. We have a deranged Ttump running around with his entire family making money due to the fact they are his kidsor relatives, and yall are drawing the line with Bronny. Rick Berry was a hall of famer, and 3 of his sons got into the NBA with one being good, the other okay, and one was complete trash. Why are we outraged about Bronny when this happens in every company in the US.

He can do all that other stuff IF it doesn’t work out in the league…. DUH

Give Bronny a chance what if he take to nba like a fish to water

Bronny getting in because of nepotism is pure disrespect for everyone with real talent who loses games because he can't produce.

I like this Briget chick 💯

Let’s boost this for black really own a team the nba association. Stop hating. Who pockets u n. 😅

Question: Would Bronny be drafted if it wasn't for his daddy?

Why she debating everything her interview is irrelevant

Ain’t no GENERATIONAL WEALTH without NEPOTISM, it’s not always about how good or qualified sometimes it’s TRUST FACTOR!!!🔂🔀🎭™️!!!!!

How does esso have a point .. I'd he was really good then it wouldn't be Nepatism, da fuc yall talking about .. it's about creating opportunities regardless of qualifications

Son got a point Bronny can go anywhere.

Imagine someone telling you that you don't deserve something😢

So what I’m hearing is actually being able to play basketball at a high-level is not the priority anymore of the NBA. It’s turning into a reality show 🤦🏽‍♂️

The sassy dude don’t know wtf he’s talking about

Esso is right. She sound crazy. Professional sports is different...🤦‍♂️. They pay ppl to talk about sports 247

Why does it feel like that they just learned the word "nepotism" and now they're overusing it to sound educated. 😅

I agree with Brittney on this nepo convo...we act like it's all or nothing

Brice game is much more effortless and pure than Bronny’s.

I'd rather have a year of 40 year old LeBron than all these lames in the 2024 draft.

A lot of people are doing a whole lot of talking with no facts just assumptions. Every year there are people who get drafted that aren't skilled enough to play in the NBA that same year however their work ethic and intelligence mixed with how they relate to team mates some end up being decent to really good players. Some don't pan out at all. Hella people get hired for jobs everyday that they aren't ready for yet they get the job. Shit some of these podcasts were not good when they started however they got better over time.

1st how is someone gonna tell me as a kid not to play basketball and go do something else. Especially if I can play. Stop tryn to control someone future and ur future is bleek. 2nd, if u got a chance to help ur kid to get a job and set them up for the future, whats wrong with that?! That's what a parent supposed to do! Hell, if ur homie or home girl need a job and u in position to hire them at McDonald's, u gonna hire them b4 hiring a stranger. Didn't hear this much hate towards Archie Manning for his kids, Denzel Washington towards his son, or the thousands to millions of other parents that's known to help their kids. I bet if any on this panel have kids that's really interested in the same profession as them, their kid will get a job. People too invested in hate and don't even know it.

U can’t just pass down being in the league. Ain’t that the truth!

GTFOH!!! BRONNY IS NOT NBA READY!!! HE NEEDS TO GO BACK TO COLLEGE!!! 💯

I’m Glad someone finally said it. All these platforms are scared to speak about it

Nah, fuck that. If my pops took our family out of poverty and made us set for generations, I’ma help make his dream come true. S\o to Hitboy for putting his pops Big Hit in the rap game.

🤔I just think a lot people have a dislike towards LeBron & that's the main issue here .. Never seen the word nepotism get thrown around so much, more than I have this past week .. This is supposed to be a great moment in Blk excellence & sports history combined but im seeing to many goofies sit around wanting to talk about rather Bronny deserve ths or not & now this clown talking about go use your nepotism to do something else???????? Man huh?? 🤨🤦🏾‍♂️ .. You know how many undeserving people are in positions of wealth & power all because of nepotism in ths country but Bronny James is where yall draw the line????? Man please🙄 .. Congrats to the James family .. Happy you all were able to pull this off .. Keeping making em mad & stepping on necks 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💪🏾

If Bronny fall into depression because people are laughing at him and picking on him, don’t start the sympathy shit

Bronny gonna make so many Naysayers eat their words and i can't wait 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I’ll put this into perspective MJ’s sons had better stats than Bronny. MJ ain’t ask David stern to draft his sons 2nd draft or do summer league to try & get picked bc his sons weren’t good enough to begin with No disrespect to Bronny but skill wise at best he’s playing in a good euro league It’s like when I would see Jojo Simmons trying to rap like Rev Run. U can’t rap well lol. Dawg u should be with uncle Russell running a label or clothing line lol But if it doesn’t work out for Bronny in the league, he can do other shit after

Bronny better get drafted whether he is good or not because of what his dad did for the league. MJs sons didn’t even make it to the NBA and that shows the lack of respect for MJ. It’s about his kids being able to benefit off his legacy . That’s what we do it for. I served 20 years in the military and now my kids get a military ID and college for free, and preference in government jobs. Bronny got to get in on GP

Esso 💯 facts‼️. Use Nepotism to put Bronny in the Lakers front office‼️. I don’t see any of the BUS family playing basketball‼️ Esso is right!

Wow y'all really hate LeBron that much to shit on his kid

1:03 But Bronny can always go the Rich Paul route even if he’s out in 2 years 😂

The media/social media are gonna flame Bronny unless he comes out going bananas. He's gonna catch a ton of strays.

Nepotism's okay, if it doesn't take away from someone who ACTUALLY put the work-in = Lebron has no problem ruining players/coaches/GM's careers, with so many of his bad decisions, so no one's surprised that he's positioning his son, to do the same idiotic/delusional things, Lebron's BEEN doing, his entire career = it's a BAD look that they're desperate to get in the NBA, when they don't need to do that

I wish Bridget would replace Melyssa on the JBP. She has a much stronger personality and is a way better podder. Them boys wouldn't be able to play with her like they do Ford.

Dwade was never trash. Even in old age he played limited minutes but was highly efficient for a 2g. Lebron should have never traded him. I guess dwade wanted his son to earn it. He probably could have forced his son onto the miami heat or bulls if he really wanted to.

If Bronny could not play he wouldnt have performed good in the McDonalds All American game.

She already has her mind made up. I agree with ESSo. They have enough money to do anything to create a Fortune 500 business. People will never respect bronny James as a basketball player because of how good his father is.

If prince james pull up and say "let go baby" that yellow bone will go lol.....BRONNY JAMES WANT TO MAKE HIS OWN CASH - that billions its his dads 🎯💀🔥😂💯

👍 AGREED. 1000% Es$o

Nepotism been in the nba for a long time. Its funny how people are up innarms about it now. It is what it is...move on

Heineken never played a sport in his life so for him to say D Wade was ever trash is blasphemy.

She made a perfect point North West took someone's spot, not because she earned it but because of nepotism

If bronny was any good, there wouldn't be any conversations about this. Debate Done

Esso don’t know anything Bronny already got millions from Nil deals

Brice game is much more effortless and pure than Bronny’s.

Bridget broke it down 100%. Nepo babies can afford to suck at whatever they're going for cause of nepotism.

She is absolutely correct!

Why was nobody going crazy about Giannis brother

He may not deserve it but his dad earned it!

I guarantee you if he’s shooting like Shaq at the free throw line Laker fans will shit on him.

BRONNY JAMES IS GOING TO BE A 💫

Did she not contradict herself when bringing up north ?

She is 💯 Esso Your Wrong Bro ! She speaking Facts over Feelings.

She is 💯 percent correct ❤

She had a point for about 2 minutes. Fell short.

If people think that Caitlyn Clark is getting bad in the WNBA the storm that is waiting on this kid is gonna be 1000 times worse and there isn’t a damn thing lebron can do about it. He and his media fanboys have put a huge target on this kids back.

Es$o saying the truth,but ANY nepotism should be used by black folks if we can do it,cause most of us will never be in that position! It's really about generational wealth,education,unity,& black economics in the community

nepotism is giving about unqualified fam and friends positions. If Bronny was a college all-american, this would not be considered nepotism. i'm not giving my child a job he's not qualified for

Being pro nepotism generally in a country where you’re only 15% population and went through 200 years of slavery isn’t a great idea no matter how rationalize it.

He got drafted 55 and you’re STILL complaining. That’s crazy

People keep saying he don’t belong but it’s multiple players that went in the 1st round and they averaged less points than him🤦🏾‍♂️🤣🤣🤣🤡
