  • Jeremy Lin Retires

    Jeremy Lin has retired and it does not really matter. Yes, he started an era called Linsanity. The coach simply decided to call his name into the first game of February 4, 2012 and could not even play with the greatest of all time, Kobe Bryant.

    Lin was insanity. He recorded a solid 80.9 FT% and 11.6 PTS. His time with the New York Knicks, Houston Rockets, and Los Angeles Lakers was priceless. He started as a G-League star of the Golden State Warriors organization and became featured on all kinds of newstands.

    Carmelo Anthony could not handle and almost stand the pressure. Lin tried his best to work with many great basketball athletes including James Harden. It was at least rewarding to know that Lin playing along with the best and ending a Harvard student.

  • The Bronny James Experiment

    The Bronny James Experiment

    Bronny James is young. He inspires new G-League motivators to play the game of basketball and let out their true colors. James has not seen the game apparently so consistently as many others but if there is one resonating factor in James pleading to be a South Bay player. It is royalty.

    It comes from higher up. Lebron James is the median standard of what a basketball player meets to come as far as Bronny. Bronny, drafted 2nd round 55th overall, will be Hollywood. The TV executives are raving about Bronny’s G-League debut this Saturday.

    And who could go without mentioning Lebron’s silly G-League endorsement for Bronny. Anyone who steps within those parameters ought to feel wrong. Any higher bits of success are nice but to endorse a demotion whether it is office, accounting, etc. Any demotion is at least harmoniously crucial and Lebron is doing himself no favors if it means sitting court side for another sip of cabernet.

    The Bronny James experiment has not gone right. Is there hope? The Los Angeles Lakers rest their hands with new rookie Dalton Knecht shooting the ball particularly well but that is the nod. Bronny will shoot and not falter out of the rotation because he has no further choice to play through a guaranteed contract and spark the souls of Laker front row celebrities again.

  • What to Learn from Lebron James

    What to Learn from Lebron James

    James is tenacious, gritty, and old for his age in basketball. He has played professionally since he came out of high school. He is a menace at the rim and still dunks spectacularly at times.

    Fans can say what they want about James but one thing is certain. The Los Angeles Lakers are 3-0 to start their season for the first time since 2010-11 and things are looking up with Bronny James alongside.

    This was never part of the plan but Bronny got itched into the situation. Bronny has averaged one rebound and a couple missed shots and there is now talk he will join the NBA G League.

    Coincidence?

    Lebron finished yesterday with 32 points, 14 rebounds, and 10 assists and has competed with a fairly decent schedule. The next game is against Phoenix again and at 39 years old, Lebron James is still teaching everybody.

  • Lakers Draft Bronny James

    Lakers Draft Bronny James

    The Los Angeles Lakers drafted the son of multi-time champion Lebron James, Bronny James, with the 55th overall pick. Many draft analysts had projected James to go later in the draft and with GM Rob Pelinka’s connection to those higher up in the Lakers organization. The Lakers jumped the gun and drafted USC and now NBA star Bronny.

    Bronny only worked out for two teams. The Lakers and the Phoenix Suns. But expressed his desire to showcase himself in the NBA Combine and return from a cardiac arrest injury that impressively landed him in the latter part of the draft. Bronny and Lebron James are now teammates.
