what is your opinion of the Lakers drafting Brony and how that came about if you want to just go factual as well I'll give you the floor and whatever you'd want to say on this subject matter Dave I I think he is the most discussed 55 pick in the history of the league there's no doubt about it there's no question about it there's no question and based on what we've seen so far did he earn a spot in the NBA um you know like what JJ said at his introductory press conference when bronnie said I just want to thank uh Rob and thank JJ for what they given me and JJ tried to you know correct the record and said no no no you earn this bronnie I I don't know if you can really say that based on his body of work at the ncva level and all the kids around the country and quite frankly around the world that ended up going undrafted that he earned it um what I truly believe and I you just seen him you know basically observed him as an older brother to his younger brother and his younger sister and you just kind of get a sense of someone's character that way and I've seen him from the time he was you know at my waist level or whatever you know four feet tall to where he is now um over the last decade and I believe he's a person of High character and I think what you can look to as a concrete example of his determination to make it is coming back from a heart attack last summer and to put himself in position to even be playing basketball now yeah a lot of people could say that's should that be enough to get drafted into the NBA to League's glamour franchise maybe it's not but at the same time I don't see it's a bad play for the Lakers to put the investment into Bron if it means they're going to get a better version of LeBron and also like if we're gonna have this conversation can we also acknowledge that janisan Tumo has had his brother playing with him in Milwaukee for years now and I don't think that's caused nearly the same uproar that this Bron situation is currently no I I'm again just so you're aware my my opinion of is is who who's who are we to say you know what I mean I I think you just nailed it that if you're going to get a better version of LeBron for the first you know for the first two years of Bron's career then that that alone means um so much and on top of it we have no idea what conversations they've had for years over the importance of this moment that would be uh I believe a highlight leader for the worldwide leader in sports as well as everybody else that is in business with the NBA if the two of them get on the court and want assist the other I mean we we'll be talking about that over any other result the night before in the NBA which is awesome so what do I care I I I don't again it's not as if LeBron is defrayed and they're doing this just to keep him around and it hurts the team um or they use the first round selection on him they didn't so all of it is just as you said um an odd Spotlight for a 55th overall selection but their last name is James and we're talking about LeBron too so I just wanted to you know take a minute here to so to round out our discussion with my opinion of it catch the rich eyes and show every single day on the Roku Channel 12 to 3 Eastern for free
