[Bob Myers] “Rich Paul is calling teams, don’t take Bronny James … if you take him, he’s going to Australia”



Somewhat unrelated but for the people who still wanted us to get Bronny lmao

  1. Never seen a D3 player receive this kind of attention in my life.

  2. -TheRedFerret-

    The NBL .. Australia’s pro league would be great for him .. Alex Sarr developed well out here with the physicality and high level competition.. outside of NBA .. the NBL has proven to be a perfect place for young NBA prospects to develop …

    Someone should call Rich Paul’s bluff and make lakers cough up an asset for bronny

  4. HipGuide2

    If he gets drafted, the team that drafts him would keep his rights if he went to Australia.

  5. whatthewut123

    We should try to find a way to trade back into the draft one spot in front of the lakers just to watch this mf sweat

    So annoying. I wish some franchise would draft him and hold his rights just to show them that they can’t strong arm the league into just doing whatever they want all the time. Wishful thinking.

  7. theducksmuggler363

    If he doesn’t go at #55 Lakers pick then there is something definitely in the works……

  8. Not sure why Rich Paul is getting hate. He’s representing his client who clearly wants to play in LA with his dad. He would be a bad agent if he didn’t try to make that happen.

  9. Proper_Preparation_0

    The team would want him to play overseas so this is a… Threat?

  10. I despise maxey has this rat as his agent, who knows what shit he’ll pull in the future with him

  11. Welp_that_sux

    Its stuff like this that makes the NBA a joke

    They are probably doing this so Bronny can go undrafted and then just sign with the Lakers like that. They did that with Austin Reaves.

    😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

    National Bron Association won’t do shit about this either.

  15. PwillyAlldilly

    Nah it’s cool he has a 4 yr deal with Faze

  16. pickledelbow

    Rich Paul would be working at Burger King if he didn’t meet Lebron In high school

  17. Doobie_Howitzer

    Fuck him then, let’s send him to Australia

  18. StrngBrew

    When it became obvious Lebron was staying in LA, Bronny wasn’t even on anyone’s draft board

  19. Halfonion

    Would lil Bronny even make an Australian professional basketball team lol?

  20. HemmingwayDaqAttack

    In fairness, Bronny James probably needs a few years before he gets a shot at the league so might be the best thing that happens for him lol

  21. MacMan1214

    There should be some rule for 2nd Rounders refusing to play for teams

  22. The simple answer to that.. we’re drafting him so he ends up in Australia.. F U

    The idea that there’s millions of kids that just want a shot to play pro ball.. and the world has to cater to Lebron’s weak ass nepo baby.. is absurd.

  23. Patient_Jicama_4217

    Can’t wait for Lebron to retire..mad the nba intolerable 

  24. We absolutely should have drafted Bronny James in the 2nd round before the Lakers pick. And for people that think 2nd round picks are valuable our owner is a multibillionaire who owns like 4 professional sports teams and 2nd round picks get traded for a few hundred thousand in cash pretty often so our owner could afford to trade for a 2nd round pick for just a few hundred thousand dollars, that’s like the equivalent of me or you spending $50 at a store. Then I would have told Rich Paul, Bronny and LeBron your options are playing in Australia, playing with the Bluecoats on a 2 way contract, having your dad sign with the 6ers as a free agent and you can spend the full season on the roster and even get some garbage time NBA minutes or your dad can force the Lakers to overpay in a trade. And I’d say I don’t really care what option you choose so get back to me whenever you guys make a decision.

    “In his lone season at the University of Southern California, he played in 25 games, averaging 4.8 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game.”

    Oh and he had a heart attack during practice when he was 19. The fact this dude was picked 55 OA has nothing to do with ability and everything to do with LeBron wants to play and win a ring with his son, which honestly if that happened it would be pretty cool.
