    @MrBator

     This is really stupid. That family has millions and millions of dollars. You said he should make his son stay 4 years and get a degree? I'm a retired teacher and I strongly believe in education, but Bronny can always go back and get his education. Even if he gets a degree, it will not change his life except maybe be more well-rounded. He should put all his energy in now to try to be the best basketball player he can be. Use all your money and resources. If it does fail, then go back and get your education...if he wants. Go to Europe and play. It only lasts so long. He has enough money to start his own business without an education anyways. He actually would never have to work a day in his life if he didn't want to. We should all be so lucky...

    As for LeBron...I lived through Jordan. I'm not even going there. I used to fight students in class about Bird vs Jordan. It is all perspective. Jordan was unbelievable, but how you cannot appreciate Lebron doing what he is doing at 39 years old is again, plain stupid. The Lakers are not good enough because of their guards. Their coach is horrendous also. Plain and simple. Is LeBron better at 39 than 28? Hell no, but that is not the point.

    I'm the dumb-ask. I wait for Bator and Michigan D to post most days and then I see child nonsense like this. I thought I was dealing with adults in the room trying to win money. I feel I'm back in the classroom again dealing with teenagers. Then LAGames chimes in...who I also respect. He says more stupid stuff. Are people on drugs today? 

    You can take a stance or have a perspective, but none of you have shown that you can do it with a mature angle. I cannot believe that I have valued your opinions.

    I'm laying the hammer down on the Nuggets in game four. After watching DeAngelo Russell quit and Lebron talk about there being more to life than basketball, I see a Nuggets beatdown to complete a clean sweep.
