Gilbert trying to play dumb like he doesn't understand the question McCants asked about why does he think the Lakers drafted or would have cut their 55th to sign Bronny as a free agent😂😂
I'm only 100% sure that he said bronny better than SOME of these cats I been watchin on league pass... he didn't say starters or 6th men could literally mean the mfs in trash time
Brandon is speaking the truth. Gil plays dumb when it comes to the James family. NOBODY is expecting him to be a star or score 20. Bronny is a starter in the summer league so we expect him to just play well period regardless of points. Why is he even playing in the summer league is there’s no expectation?!?!? He’s playing big minutes but we shouldn’t expect him to do nothing besides be a body out there.
@@thedepresseddog6035 he’s been playing good defense for the most part. If you’re playing top minutes & taking the second most shots we expect you to score efficiently. I know his offense of number will improve but let’s call it for what we actually have seen in the games he’s played. There’s extremist on both ends. Some who thinks he’s the worst player ever & some who thinks he can do no wrong which are both wrong ways of evaluating him. It’s ok to provide constructive criticism based on what we’ve seen on the floor.
Brandon is absolutely correct!!!! I have sons and the last thing you want is for them to get into a sport and embarrass themselves!!! If they aren't on that level, then I would be like, "IF YOU'RE NOT PUTTING IN THE WORK TO GET BETTER, THEN SIT YO AZZ DOWN!!! NOBODY'S GIVING YOU NOTHING!!!!"
@@afrosinoyk4690Bronny is the son of a billionaire. That seven mill deal was like 20 bucks to the average person. Bronny is being made an utter laughing stock.
@@JustThinkingAboutItthey forced him into the top 25 so he could make the allstar game. He wasn’t in the top 20 until the fix came in. Get your facts right.
No excuses... either u got it or not. Sheepard same age came out busting we going quit making excuses. If and when he steps up we be here to praise his play
@@denk664Shepard is better than bronny* that’s what you should’ve said but that’s what everyone been saying about everyone else when it comes to bronny he’s not that good all these other players are just better than him
@@kevinlambert5854 no he's the third pick. Since when do we compare Michael Jordan to the 55th pick in his draft? Only cuz it's Bron 😂 Where was this out cry for David Stockton
@@mitchrapp5214 he was never supposed to be better. Jokic was never supposed to be the best player in his draft nobody saw that coming. He's played poorly but there's alot of lottery picks that are too right now
Are people forgetting lebron literally said bronny was better than a lot of players in the nba right now like come on? It is expectations for that reason alone
He’s not trash..just not ready..but to gils point he’s more likely to get better training in the nba..right now hes probably not gonna touch the floor..unless KING LeGM “LeCoach” James says otherwise
@seungholee4892 His game is just flat lined....No 3rd or 4th best player on a regular (non-prep/Academy) HS team as a SENIOR is a pro player anyway, let alone ready a year and a half later after being a mediocre prep and even worse college player to be a Pro.
@EarthalienCS He's not good compared to college players. He''s trash compared to others in his age group that are Pros, and compared to the other 450-500 pros, he's not in their stratosphere. Not a Top 1200 player in the world, let alone 480.
Why y'all want them to kill that kid u don't even know the other players from the second round or care about them stop the fan boy stuff...they just not caught up n fake hype he never had hype LBJ haters want to give him some pressure that doesn't exist
@@MasterTrickShothe a rookie and the 55th pick going to need time to develop just like most rookies it been first overall picks than been horrible in the NBA you’re just a hater . Champion that young man
@@thepardonguy he is the only one honestly questioning Bronny's place in the NBA. Given his college stat line he should not be in the NBA. How is that being a hater? The truth hurts
@@NubSaiboty we will never know because Kobe has no sons, so you are speculating. Secondly, do you believe Bronny's resume provided evidence for him to be a draft pick?
@@thepardonguyYou are a child, because ONLY children claim criticism or not following the pervasive narrative as ‘hating’. Now, go look up the definition of ‘pervasive’.
What did he say that was wrong tho I've been begging someone in the comments to tell me. Y'all just so upset y'all realize how biased y'all see when his own peer says that is a messed up mindset.
@@someguy36284 No, I'm going to call you what you are as somebody who has something to say about a kid who almost died a year ago and who only played 10 college games but expects that kid to be out here dominating; which is a moron. Jimmy Butler averaged 5 points a game his first summer league. Lavine averaged 9. Neither of them was a 6'2 guard who had open heart surgery a year before they were drafted. Were you hating on them too? Grow the fuk up. Because you ain't getting a bucket out there if you played all 48 minutes of the game.
Kenyon made their point for them. If hes behind why not stay in school and get more minutes? Why expedite the process for a player thats severely behind? Such a stupid take.
He's a child! He's in a weird position. He knows why he got drafted, it's what his Pops wanted for his legacy and history, he knew the hate that he was gonna get and it's obviously effecting him. Don't sleep on the kid tho.
@@seungholee4892 they wasn’t saying that I heard ppl saying he wouldn’t get drafted or should stay in college And even if they was he dropped all the way to 55 so that should mean he isn’t expected to be great
The the best Pod I seen from Jennings. Them boys up there capping for Bronny don’t do this for any other player. Gil know he understands making ur son earn it from the mud cuz that’s how he doing his son and why he’s better than Bronny right now as a high schooler. Stop coddling him and tell him he not good enough he need to hear it to get better. All these Bron yes men scared to criticize him the same way u criticize everyone else’s kids
@@anotherpod I didn't know that. It kinda makes sense now why Gil goes so hard for the kid. I still disagree with Gil, but I can understand why he feel the way he does. Bronny still trash tho.
You do realize he wouldn’t be a subject on this show if he wasn’t😂😂y’all stupid asf , once again he a 55 pick , who tf ever has hated on a 50-60 2nd rd pick💀
@Seanyz he chose to leave because he thought he would get more opportunity. We were a circus when we drafted him, I can't blame him for trying to better his career. He's never said bad things about Houston or the organization, no matter how frustration the situation was. I always got respect for him, he did well when he started or played off the bench. Silas didn't give him enough of a chance.
@kurtmcmillan9610 I didn't say I would play him over anyone. All I said is we miss him and hopes he has a great season. I would deff play him off the bench over aaron holiday, Jeff Green or any other old vet. You just hating for no reason lol
@@lawrencegambrell4293 yea but especially lately Rashad been making more sense lately although he try to play the villain role and oppose other opinions to make the content more entertaining
@@puncho8799 yeah. He’s mentioned that on the show before so I get the loyalty and not wanting to say anything bad about Bronny but at the same time got to be real to some degree. It’s ok to give constructive criticism.
This how the vibe needs to be on every show fr!!!! Everybody being cool cordial not over talking yelling mad or tryna intimidate mfs over they opinions I only 48! Mins in tho also 😂😂
@@BH71830 niccas really mad a father helped his son 😂😂 acting like he got him to get picked in the lottery….if Anthony Bennett can go number 1 bronny can go 2nd rd 55 smh
According to Gil & Kmart we shouldn’t have expectations for Bronny for 2 years besides him being a cheerleader on the bench. Imagine getting a 4 year contract at a job to not have any expectations for 2 years besides just showing up for work. That’s wild. I’m genuinely asking what expectations should we expect from him by year 3?
Gil is literally admitting Bronny is in the NBA because lebron wants him to be next to him everyday. What does that have to do with his skill & talent lol. You’re admitting Bronny wouldn’t have been drafted by another team besides the lakers because if Bronny was so good to be drafted by any team how can lebron seeing him every have been at the forefront to him choosing to enter the draft when he could’ve ended up anywhere?!?? Yes we know if he went undefeated that he still would’ve ended up with the Lakers & would’ve still been given the same 4 year contract because that’s what lebron wanted to happen. That’s the problem right there we keep trying to bs around the truth. All these conversation about Bronny has some damn narrative behind it besides his actual skills & what he can bring to the table to a team right now & his potential. Any conversation about any athlete should start first & foremost with their skill set. Gil is too close to the family to give an honest take. Bronny isn’t ready for the league right now & didn’t earn his spot but is already guaranteed 4 years. That’s beyond wild. Had he been drafted anywhere else he wouldn’t have been given a 4 year guaranteed contract as a second round pick. He’s never been a dominant player at any level that he’s played & that’s because he doesn’t have that aggression in him, he’s always been a passive team oriented player. He’s an undersized guard in a league of big guards that are scorers. He’s got some work to do to be ready to contribute in the league & I hope for his sake he gets to develop & is able to contribute. The way his situation was handled is setting him up for all this scrutiny when he himself did nothing wrong. He was handed this opportunity by lebron because lebron wanted to play with his son for his own personal satisfaction of being the first father & son duo to play in the league together. I don’t think anyone is expecting Bronny to play like lebron cause that’s never been him but he’s guaranteed 4 years to be a cheerleader. I personally think he should just focus on being a primarily a defensive player & energy guy. If he can buy into that role then he may be able carve out a career in the league.
Gil keeps saying he is the 55th pick , but he is on the cover of the bill boards, and 1st round pick is not. And got a guarantee contract. Gil, what 55th pick gets that's?
Disappointed to see how honest, unbiased sports commentary is in such short supply these days. Hats off to those who still believe in delivering the cold hard truth in criticism, cus this ain’t it.
There are no expectations for him. There is a quote to be heard. “Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt “
Bronny said in an interview about his summer league performance, "I just feel like I'm in a little slump right now." Slump compared to what HIGHSCHOOL?? cuz his college stats look like this SUMMARY 2023-24 College Career: GP 25 PTS 4.8 TRB 2.8 AST 2.1 FG% 36.6 FG3% 26.7 FT% 67.6 eFG% 43.8
I used to think K Mart kept it 100 but "he is behind" sounds crazy as hell for some dude that came out of college after the first year averaging 4 points. Thats why he needed more college reps!
Because we ain’t shit but fans. He can discuss league shit because he was there. If a surgeon criticizes another surgeon that’s not the same a the hot dog vendor outside the hospital criticizing a surgeons skill..😂😂
I legit worry about Gil's blood pressure everytime he gets _"elevated"_ during these conversations. It makes it entertaining for most to watch and of course there's mad sound bits and shorts (created) for days, but it's still kind of alarming. I guess cause I'm a quiet _"people"_ for the most part 🤷🏽♀️😂
Lmfao the fact that you niggas are calling me lame and getting mad over a nigga who could care less if you existed is mad suspect if you ask me holy shit you really can't tell a joke in these times we live in now without making sure other men are wearing their panties tight enough to be able to make a damn joke why don't you 2 sensitive ass gentlemen hop off and just enjoy the show and Crack jokes like the rest of us do please and thank you much appreciated 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Kenyon says he is behind? Then why draft him this is where us fans don’t understand because we haven’t played professionally but we are all under the impression that when someone is drafted there’s a standard to that person being selected all I’m hearing is bronny was drafted was because it’s his dream to play in the NBA so we did a make a wish deal if that’s the case that’s trash
