Bronny James drafted by Lakers

I'm not in LeBron's camp or anything, but I find it highly unlikely that he was making any "demands" saying draft Bronny or I'll leave. People say similar things about the JJ Reddick hire even though LeBron publicly endorsed another coach first.

This was simply a classy move by the Lakers in their mutually beneficial relationship with LeBron. Not that they were title contenders anyways, but the effect one player signing for a few million will have on their chances is very slim. The attention and money this will bring the Lakers far outweighs the downsides.

People so upset about this "nepotism" in the NBA need to have the same energy when it comes to politics, business, etc. Hell, the whole Lakers organization is run by a bunch of unqualified nepo babies! The story of LeBron, who was holding this kid as a toddler in the NBA finals so many years ago, is now playing on the same team as that kid, especially after his heart problems last year, is amazing in my opinion. Those who can't see one positive side to this must be miserable.
