We were all unfairly denied the ubermensch when he chose not to sire with Serena.

She sired with just some average dude too.

Then again, with that reasoning, the Agassi's should have the greatest tennis player of all time.

I'm aware. But the elephant in the room with this kid is that he's gonna end up pretty small, as far as NBA standards go.

He's been under the microscope since he was like 3 years old, and the forced media narrative continues to be "Here comes another LeBron!". They need to say something positive about him to keep that shit alive, and since his growth seems to have stopped and he's not a top tier talent, they're talking about muscle. As if that means a lot on a 6'2'' frame with narrow shoulders.

Genes are funny. When LaMelo Ball was 15, he was super scrawny and looked like he'd never in a million years have an NBA body. The next thing you know, he's got legit SF size at PG.

For Bronny, it's the other way around.

Bronny is an example of just how good you have to be to be an nba player. Need freak physique and freak skill. Bronny has good skill and good physique and right now seems like he will top out as a mid-level D1 guard who starts in his last two years of college. Easily in the top one percent of players but not a one in ten thousand player or whatever, which is what you need to make it in the NBA. Over a half a million high school players funnel to 16000 college players plus thousands of Euro guys, funnel to only a few dozen making the NBA each year
 
Basically, Bronny is a punk ass rich kid living off his dads name and will fizzle out at UCLA?
 
I heard his jump shot is already better than his dad’s!!!!

Per the first post in this thread, when he was just 11 years old he already had Kyrie’s handle and Lebron’s passing ability and court vision! All he needed to do was just miraculously sprout into a physical replica of Lebron and we were set for the greatest player of all time!
 
All this thread has taught me is that no one understands how genetics works...
 
On the other side of the ball from Justin Edwards and Team Final tonight was Bronny James and Strive for Greatness.

It ended as a lop-sided game but it was beneficial for getting an updated look at where Bronny James, the son of King James, stands in his development.

While his team was outmatched, James showed some positive developments in his game, most notably in his aggressiveness out on the floor.

One thing evaluators have long wanted to see out of James is more aggressiveness and assertiveness out of him during his time on the court and he did that on Saturday afternoon.

His body and his frame are continuing to mature at an impressive rate (by no surprise) standing now roughly 6-foot-4, 190-pounds. He has a stronger and more physical build, he's athletic, and he was more effective getting in the paint and knocked down four triples.


Two things can consistently be said of James - he plays the game the right way and the way he handles the immense amount of scrutiny thrown his way is nothing short of incredible grace and maturity.


He finished with 14-points, three-rebounds and one-steal.

At least he will be better than Marcus Jordan
 
The scouting reports of him that I've read keep saying he plays the right way. I think Bronny has been coached up to be at bare minimum a backup PG in the NBA. I think they probably have hedged that if he wasn't as tall or athletic as LeBron that he would able to stick on a team and run their second unit.

I also think it will be real calculated where Bronny plays in college. I bet he will be one of the last to commit to the team he plays for so they know who exactly he will be playing with and the style of play the coach will pick to play.
 
There is no way in hell this kid is 6'4''. Absolutely ridiculous. People are just seeing what they want to see.

Try 6'2'' in shoes.
