He played 51 games in the NBA averaging 2.8 PPG and 2.5 RPG. People weren't upset that he chased his NBA dream. Why the hate for Bronny?

As was pointed out above, since Kevin Garnett and Kobe Bryant, plenty of high school then freshmen college players are drafted on their potential and there are plenty who don't make it. Bronny being another one is no big deal, but people are trying to make it one.
