Mase Drops The Hammer On Lebron James By Saying Kobe Bryant Would’ve Made Bronny James Earn It 

Has a 55th pick ever gotten introduced at a press conference before? LMAO. Bronny should get some merch with slogan "Everything given, nothing earned"

Kobe would have publicly called out all of this BS if he was still alive.

Notice how lebron started this whole circus after Kobe passed. He knows Kobe wouldn't have allowed any of this nonsense.

People just don't believe in sweat-equity anymore. You're sorely missed, Mamba 🙏🏽

In a normal world, Bronny would be back for another year at USC and try to improve his game and contributions to the team and take it from there

Kobe was ruthless. 💯

Dam.. that's Kobe. That's why he always had that killer instinct. Last true legend.

Larry Bird gave his brother Jeep to help him get around the Indiana State Campus. But once he found out his brother was failing classes he took it right back telling his brother you didn't earn you have to keep working hard.

The biggest Unethical Mess Ever in the history of the NBA.

Love Mase Fan Base! I think Kobe definition of achieveing anything is by earning it!

No' Shame James 🤡

Nobody on Earth had an issue with Marvin Harrison Jr being drafted 4th overall in the NFL because he was the best player in college at his position.

Sir Flop A Lot has severely damaged the competitiveness and the integrity of the ENTIRE NBA LEAGUE. It went from tampering with his hair, to tampering with the players, to tampering with the draft. He has turned this association on its head and all for what? He’s forced players, coaches, teams and media to do it his way or else. All this and STILL will NEVER be considered the Goat to those who REALLY know what time it is. R.I.P. NBA! Damn Shame!!!

LeParticipation Award James

It makes me wonder if Kobe was taken out.

Kobe Bryant would call this Bullsh** out with the quickness!!! Kobe didn't show favoritism to his daughter Gianna when he was coaching the female basketball team. Gianna had to prove that she could carry on Kobe's legacy, but unfortunately Kobe and Gianna died before Gianna's full basketball potential could really be seen. Shaq told his son that if he wanna play in the NBA, he had to go out and work for it. Carmello Anthony, Scotty Pippen, and a bunch of other NBA greats and vets made their children work for what they wanted. If Kobe Bryant were alive, Kobe would go all the way in on Lebron James, Jeannie Bus, Rob Pelinka and the entire Laker's organinzation. Kobe would really go off about JJ Reddick being the new Laker's head coach, cause Kobe hated JJ Reddick.

Man makes me think of GIGI. She was go really take the WNBA to another level.

Idk how many stories from people yall need to hear to understand that LeBron is not like that. He's not like Jordan & Kobe he's a sucka

This is worse than plummers on cocaine.

I remember Kobe telling a story about when he was playing some board game with his daughter, and they were at the end where there was only one move left. He mentioned that his daughter knew that if Kobe made a mistake, it was on purpose and that he let her win, so he didn't.

Mamba mentality. Enough said.

If Kobe was there nobody wouldn't be there

We know the late great Kobe Bean Bryant would say, let Brawnny earn it, it's not yet his time, hone his skills first...

5th place trophies is wild

Bronny is the true definition of Nepo baby.

They didn't do Brony any favors. What message does this send to him? That he can't do it on his own.

Kobe and Bron are two different people with two different goals and thought processes. Lebron obviously thinks about the bigger picture which is why he’s in year 22 HEALTHY vs Kobe who had to quit prematurely because he didn’t think long term about his body.

Yall big mad😂😂😂that man being a f$)king great damn dad get ya game up 😂😂😂you can do it too

You dam right !

🔥 I agree. LeBron James owns The Lakers….but Michael Jordan owns LeBron and all of NBA history. But the question is - Will Bronny James avenge his father? Bronny James must now chase THE GOAT - Michael Jordan, because Bronny’s father failed to catch Michael Jordan. LeBron James playing with or against his own son, Bronny James, in the the 2024-2025 NBA season, will not change anything between Michael Jordan and LeBron James. Michael Jordan will still be The GOAT, and playing with your son in the NBA at the same time will never move Michael Jordan from his LOCKED Goat position.

Damn, it DOES NOT feel like 4 1/2 years ago. Even as a Spurs fan since '92, I miss this dude. RIP Kobe & Gigi.

Kobe was all about nepotism...how the hell y'all think Rob Pelinka went from being Kobe's agent to the General Manager of the LA Lakers....from hard work?? Kobe placed that call to his big sis Jeanie Buss and told her to hire his boy

Get ready for the Bronny James meme moment every time he gets on the court trying to guard someone like Ant Edwards, Jalen Brown, Steph, or Russell Westbrook. You know Russell is licking his chops right now thinking about 😂😂😂😂😂

This entire process is showing us if Lebron can run a successful franchise. JJ is his coach. He wanted AD. He wanted his son. He wanted Westbrook. We are seeing the results of some of his decisions.

We all know how Kobe felt about redick he did not like him he made this known in 2008 and we really know how he felt about LeBron as a basketball player if Kobe was alive today he would have dog out the Lakers for drafting bronny and he would not have cared what LeBron rich Paul and klutch sports the media and ESPN had to say for dogging out the Lakers for drafting bronny.

I still cry hearing the man or seeing his image. R.I.P Kobe Bryant, Gianna Bryant, Payton Chester, Sarah Chester, Christina Mauser, John Altobelli, Keri Altobelli, Alyssa Altobelli and pilot Ara Zobayan

Always ask, W.W.K.B.D.?

Lebron is still 16-6 against Kobe and dominated him in all categories during those match-ups

Mana mentality vs LB weak mentality

I mean, the kid didn’t earn it. What do these guys have podcast for if they can’t be honest?!?

Can y’all imagine how hard Kobe would’ve laughed at the in season tournament 😂

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 taking in 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.

Kobe had girls .. we don’t know what Kobe would’ve done . How they feel about Bronny being drafted is irrelevant

See Most Black Men Aren't In Position or Have The Clout To Do What LeBron James Is Able To Do! Most Black Folks Are Happy Bronny Got Drafted By The Lakers It's History! Now If He Was Of The other ethnicity No One Would Care But Because Who He Is Everybody Wants To Hate On T h e Young Man, Stop It! Because It Aint Over For The James Family Legacy He Has Another One Coming Soon.

I am curious to see Ryan Clark and others handle other players in the nfl get drafted or not get drafted , or get cut … on the issues of a player earned it or not. .. we will be listening Ryan Clark.

Kobe would have showed his disgust by making his famous "Death Stare".

Who cares if he would have or wouldn’t have?

Well think about it, Imagine if Michael Jordan was GIVEN* the opportunity to play Major League Baseball! Instead of trying his best to make it and ultimately playing in the Minors. Imagine that.

My thought when the 55th pick happened Kobe “ lord let me back down for a few hours so I can slap the ___ out the lakers front office” 😄

LIKE I SAID... IF GIGI WANTED TO PLAY ON THE LAKERS SHE WOULD BE A LAKER!!!!AND KOBE AINT BRONNY DADDY!! SHIT IS EARNED!!!

I actually made that comment 5 days ago on one of your videos. Is this the new Lakers culture. They probably see Brony as a throw away to keep LeBron happy. I hope it doesn't piss off any of the other players.

Did Kobe make Rob Pelinka earn his job? 🤔

Facts 💯🎯 on the title

Um. Kobe was the son of a basketball pro who was drafted into the NBA with less hoops experience than Bronny has. When did this Mase guy "earn" the right to speak for the deceased Kobe Bryant anyway? And even if Bryant was still alive, how would he prevent a team from drafting who they wanted?

We’re starting to see the divide between Kobe and lebron fans. Like I’m really starting to see why I never connected to lebron as a person. Can’t respect someone who does shit like this.

I'm sure players like Gary Payton is happier his Son earned it the way he did. I remember hearing GPSr, didn't cuddle his son. GPII even mentioned that in an interview. We are in a different era now. Just like the OG would never want to play on the same team with players they were competing with. Times are different now.

Mase is correct, Bronny did not earn this spot, because, now, the player that had spot, has to give it up to Bronny? Ill start rooting for the Lakers when Lecrybaby finally leaves.

💯💯💯% TRUE Kobe would make Bronny earn his spot on the Lakers

I feel bad for Bronny because other players are going take out their dislike of his father on him

Bronny was the 55th pic. What did he really earn? I am a Bron fan. The real work starts this summer. So when he does summer league and G-League, then let's see.

One thing Kobe didn’t make a Son. Second he dead so what’s the point

Kobe has the right idea. That's how true competitors r born through hard work and learning how to overcome losses and tough love. Not being handed everything and told how amazing they r even if their not. Or being given trophies for losing. Or worse playing in a league that doesn't keep score🙄 That's how delusional divas r made.

Kobe saying that there isn't pressure to win sounds so out of character for him. I guess this is a calmer, more mature, Kobe post NBA.

4 points a game coming off the bench! I'm just saying.....4 points a game and never starting simply a bench player🤨

The Longer Lebron James stays in the League. The more he is hated. Hes killing his own Legacy.

This is why LeFlop doesn't belong in the same sentence as Kobe and MJ!!

JJ didn't earn his spot as a coach. All coaches in the current NBA have experience being a college coach or some kind of assistant to the head coach. JJ has none, yet he becomes head coach just cause he's friends with Lebitch.

Its not a surprise LeViden has always always taken the easiest way to success! Ant yet he still is so far from the greats!

Imagine what would Kobe says if he still alive. Not good! Rob Pelinka will have a mouths full of swearing and cuss for sure.

Mase Kobe Dp 😮have this in common go along get along gang😅 puff daddy groupies😅😅😅😅😅😅

Lebron unfollowing Mase in 5..... 4, 3, 2, 1.

I certainly hope that you all give this much attention to Jerry Jones, Bill Belichick, Doc Rivers, the Buss family, Al Davis, the Glazer family, Donald Trump, and so on. All of these people put their children in positions that they probably got because of who their parents were. I normally love the content, but you all have got to stop with this LeBron slander. He is an athlete who doesn’t have any real major scandals that I’m aware of, he is still with his wife who’s also his high school sweetheart, and he has had an illustrious career that he has some how extended , very effectively more than any player in NBA history and to now bring his kids along. Is this not the American dream? Having success and if you can pass that along to your children, you do it. Was Kobe as much as I loved him before he passed not pouring that same energy into his daughter? Correct me if I’m wrong, he was doing everything within his power to get women’s basketball the notice that it deserved. Not because he cares so much about the women’s game, but because he wanted to successfully set his daughter up. the LeBron hate is one of the most sickening things that I have ever seen and it’s scary because a lot of it is coming from the black community. This is a man who has not been afraid to use his platform to speak out on the injustices that have happened to us, but the basketball Lord and Savior Michael Jordan never did that. His response was, Republicans buy sneakers too. Y’all need to chill out.

"Started from the top"

The Lakers gave bronny 7.9 million he was the 55th pick but got paid as much as the fifth pick in the draft

I don't even think Bronny feels he really deserves it. When they introduced Bronny for the 55th pick he was a bit emotional but it wasn't emotional like damn I finally made it..... It was more like if it wasn't for my dad I probably wouldn't have gotten drafted to LA.

It's about respect..for other human being's who don't have blessings of Wealth 🤑 that LeBron James abuse's over and over coaches and players have endore now his evil ❤️is doing it too kid's when do it stop

This is weird coming from these guys just hating from top to bottom. That’s Lebron James and his son business.y’all acting like Bronny was sitting on a couch and now he’s in the NBA.

Mase comments started out Interesting, then he started Biting His Tongue when they asked him about his Views, what I don't understand is why most of these peoples , won't Stick To Their Guns snd say what they feel about This James Situation is with Bronny I don't need them to talk for me, if they are afraid to speak how they Truly Feel For Themselves then don't try and BS us by Beating Around The Bush 💯

I was talking to my 8 year old son today about shortcuts and how Iam not going to baby him because it’s cruel in the world and you will think your lucky stars I was your father when you get older

I honestly see it both ways . I think struggle builds character. I’m also not opposed to giving my children a handout every now then . I think Lebron did the right thing . I can also see the opposite point of view . This country wouldn’t be what it is without nepotism. Most only care because it was their dream . What’s for you is for you . Life isn’t a meritocracy .

What about the Clippers? 😂

Lebron haters always saying Kobe a glorified copy cat smh yall sound like clowns trying to diss Bronny cause yall hate Lebron so much smh

Very gud question !! Hmmmmm !!

Thanks to espn hehehehe from bringing up bronny everytime

I think BRONNY JAMES will have a BETTER CAREER then. MICHAEL JORDAN. 🤔

THERE IS NO SECRET TO SUCCESS!!

It's like Ice Cube making his son audition for the role, to play his own dad,in a movie.

I used to love your show and subscribed but your clear jealousy of Lebron is too much. Get over it.

Kobe was a true Alpha!!! James will never be one. Entitlement or thinking someone owes you is quite weak.

I thinK KoBe wouldn’t like it but really wouldn’t care.. he said he didn’t follow Basketball once he retired

If lebron really care about the Lakers how about sign a midlivel contract so that they could sign derozan

That's what's real and nothing but the truth. Go Kobe Bryant the second Goat behind Michael Jordan and not no LeBron James cause the real Goats didn't jump team to team winning Championships!!!!

Lebron is not helping Bronny or JJ Reddick for their sake. He's doing it for his ego. Parents who give their children things they clearly have not earned are egotistic. It's about what they did for their child than it is about their child's success.

Great topic Dreamerspro ! ✔Laker4life8/24/ -44

Can't speak for a dead man. Gtfoh... Congratulations James family...

Never stop making videos about lebron James. LeBron James brings all of us so much joy. I'm sure most of us only watch when the name "LeBron James" is in the title. I know I do. Never stop bro.

Ma$e Bronny James Kobe Bryant LeBron James NBA draft picks criteria 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿

Kobe was literally setting his daughter up for success

this doesnt diminish lebron's legacy as the undisputed 9th greatest of all time!

Its so funny that people think Bronny is going to have a good career without earning it. Do they think Lebron is going to go score the points for him? Is lebron going to retire his career, but then become an emotional support animal for bronny so that he can be on the court with him??? Lebron got him in the door. Thats it. Lebron cant score, defend, or do anything for his son on the court. He got him in the door but after that its up to bronny to do it himself. No different than a father asking his friend who owns a buisness to give his son a 6 month try out.
