When he plays bad you do a whole segment, when he plays good you do a whole segment. Bottom line is this dude is a so called professional sports analysts that only focuses on the name James for sensationalism. Stephen & Skip literally ruined sports coverage because they wanted to be the superstars themselves…

SAS apology without apologizing to Lebron. If not, ESPN doesn’t have any more topics without Bron.

Cop the score of this game tho for Bronnys 17 π

Really hope he improves moving forward. But, that does not change the fact that a few months ago, he was not NBA-ready and that he just came into the league because he has all the triple AAA treatment and training plus LBJ’s DNA in him. He could have still got into this level, it was just too premature for him to come to the big boy’s league.

Donβt back peddle. A lot of players have had huge games and then go back to their normal selves. Bronny IS NOT A STUD! Just had a good game.
