Just attention whoring. He got his shit blocked last night on the final play. Instead of talking about that and the loss he deflects and now has his media talking about retirement. This guy is a joke and fraud. If he can't game the game then he takes his ball and goes home. Fuck him.
Jerami Grant is better than his dad but not a huge difference. Mychal Thompson and Klay Thompson probably the closest here. Mychal Thompson I believe wasn't an allstar, but he was better than a lot of players that have been allstars.
Nobody said he would retire and then play on a different team next season. If he retires now he sits out next season. It would be the 2024-25 season when his Lakers contract is over; maybe he would play where Bronny goes.
I didn't say anybody did. I agree that's likely what will happen if he doesn't return next year to the Lakers, but I think he will return.
Some of the best father son duos; Bill and Luke Walton Mychal and Klay Thompson Gary Trent Sr and Jr Larry Nance and Jr Doc and Austin Rivers Tim Hardaway and Jr Harvey and Jermai Grant Arvydas and Domantas Sabonis Gary Payton and II Dell and Steph/Seth Curry Rick and Jon/Bent Barry Rick and Jalen Brunson Mike Dunleavy Sr and Jr Wes & Wesley Matthews I don't want to include Pippen/Shaq/Samakai/etc unless both son and dad are at least a role player. 13th man scrubs shouldnt really count IMO. Maybe if there was a list that had at least 3000 minutes played or something https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_second-generation_National_Basketball_Association_players
Wow didn't realizing Andrew Wiggins dad was Mitchell Wiggins who played 389 games averaging 10.0 ppg and over 20mpg. Crazy the Warriors have Steph, Klay, Andrew, and GPII all as sons of players.
Dell was a role player, through and through. Steph has far and away surpassed that. Seth actually is pretty close to where his dad was. Not quite as good. Klay has far surpassed his dad. But has anyone superstar had a kid who went on to be a superstar?
uhhh...this wasn't something Haynes made up or interpreted. Lebron actually said retirement is on the table in front of dozens of cameras
I agree. LeBron will play till he gets that year in with his son. That's a bucket list thing. He's just butt hurt right now. He will get over it. Have to see how good Bronny is in college to know if he is going to be a pro. But i could see a team taking a flyer on him even if he's fringe, because of LeBron. It would be a cash grab in that case though.
LeBron is getting mean and grumpy. He's turning into Westbrook in the clutch. Amazing career, retire with gas still left in the tank. Opens up cap space for Lakers to move forward.
He may want the lakers to Bronny after his one year at SC. Its possible hey agree to that to keep him from retiring?
If Bronny is in the 2024 draft the Lakers only have control over the Clippers second round pick. The Pelicans can choose to take the Lakers 2025 FRP instead of 2024 if they think 2025 will be higher but the Lakers won't have control over that. Most put Bronny in the mid to late first round so it would be hard to see the Lakers having the ability to make LeBron that promise.
I enjoyed Chris Haynes in his time here and am glad he’s done well. I think he’s fairly respected amongst people, so I don’t think this is complete satire. Maybe in some sense he is just saying what seems logical. Why would he retire though? He doesn’t look like he needs to retire. Looks like he’s still got plenty left in him. Picture 68 year old LeBron schooling the rookies with a Walker. LeBron slips on a wet spot and pushes his life alert necklace when suddenly they come running onto the court.
I didn't say he made it up or interpreted it? Where would you get that? We all listened to it. Haynes will post this or some variation of the same thing a number of times. He posts stuff so people read him. It's his job. The other portion of my statement was anything you might hear within 24 hours after being swept was directed more at LeBron. Players say a bunch of stuff after losing.
what I saw was Lebron spoke first...then a whole lot of media and bloggers took what Lebron said and ran with it. Haynes was one of hundreds
