Where's Bronny?! Is Lebron really going to wait another season to play with him?
He’s got a 50 million player option with the Lakers…he can pick that up and then be an UFA in 2025 and just go to whoever drafts Bronny
To this end, do you want us to draft LeBron James jr?
I'd rather eat a shoe.

Honestly I’d do it if he declared for the draft. LeBron gotta sign here for the minimum if he wants to play with his son

Looks like you guys didn't pay too much for these jokes. You must be on a shoestring budget.

Would Zach Edey be worse than Eubanks? The guy has had some of the best advanced stats in the recent history of the NCAA and some of all time.

He just doesn’t have an nba game at the moment. He’s a low post big…can he run pnr? He’s not a shooter. Can he defend in space at all?

I’d happily take a backup 5 with our pick, but I’d want a true rim runner or a pick and pop guy. I don’t buy Edey as an nba guy yet.

That is so funny. Look at Book's tiny hand in Eddy's mitt. It looks photoshopped. Book's hands look like Kristin Wiig's tiny hands in the classic SNL Lawrence Welk type skits.

I believe I was far too harsh on that big ol fuck. Yeah he's a relic of a bygone era but I don't see why he can't have a useful role somewhere. He moves better than Yao did at that size.

He makes 7 footers look small.

People are saying Edey will suck in the NBA? I really don't get the NBA draft discourse. Edey maybe isn't worth a #1 overall pick, but he's clearly going to be a good NBA player IMO. I'd take him in the lottery for sure.

Can't waste a pick especially a first on a guy that can't play.

Is there a better way to use a mid to late 1st? Imagine adding a guy averaging 25/8/7 at PF and shooting 42% from 3.

The only way I see LeBron going where Bronny is is if there's an agreement that he gets ownership stakes when he's done.

Probably whatever team drafts Bronny hoping for a free Lebron tag-a-long is going to end up disappointed. For one, Lebron might renege and not come. Second, he might agree to come, but only if the team agrees to ridiculous conditions. For example, he might make them promise that both he and his son get to start, or that his son has to be guaranteed a spot in the regular rotation, or TOO's idea that he would want to buy into the team ownership after, or whatever. Or Lebron would demand that you also sign some other FAs managed by Maverick Carter and CAA. Lebron would probably almost immediately start to undermine the team's coach, since he seems to only play well with coaches he basically hand-picked.

I think it'd turn into a circus and would end up hurting the team that bit on it.
