Matt Letovsky joins us.
00:05
Matt, I think if I'm looking at this from a historical perspective, this is going to
00:10
go down as one of the big moments all time in the history of sports.
00:13
I don't think there's any question about that.
00:15
And that's why we're talking about it so much.
00:17
I guess the thing that I find fascinating is once that happens, and that moment happens,
00:22
and it'll be a big one.
00:23
I mean, it's right there with Griffey and Griffey Jr.
00:25
Like, I mean, trust me, I'm not diminishing this at all.
00:28
I think it's incredible.
00:29
But I guess the question is once that happens, that moment happens, where do we go from there?
00:34
You know, like he's kind of has to be a decent player, I think.
00:37
Or else there's going to be so much anti-discussion about this.
00:40
So the build up to the moment is going to be awesome.
00:43
The moment is going to be incredible.
00:46
But I think that that's going to be fleeting unless this kid can play.
00:49
Well, yeah.
00:51
And I think that there's, you're already hearing the detractors, obviously, as many people
00:56
have been excited about this.
00:58
There's been just as many people who haven't.
01:01
And you're right.
01:02
It's going to be a really cool moment when it happens.
01:04
Good for them, of course.
01:06
But you know, I would say most number 55 overall picks play in the G League.
01:12
And that's the question.
01:13
Are they going to send him down?
01:14
Is he going to play in the G League?
01:16
Is he going to be on a two-way?
01:17
Or does he just get to hang out with the T-ball gear?
01:20
Is that weird for other people on the team?
01:23
You know, I would imagine if it happens, it's going to be garbage time.
01:27
In which case, why would LeBron be in in garbage time?
01:29
Well, it's just to make this moment happen.
01:32
And that'll be cool.
01:34
So I don't see them playing together a lot.
01:37
That's for sure.
01:38
And I would imagine if Bronny gets in most of the time, it's either going to be because
01:41
the Lakers are up by 20 or down by 20.
01:44
And it's just going to be sort of is what it is at that point.
01:47
So yeah, it's going to be interesting.
01:51
You wonder how the teammates are going to react.
01:54
And I'm sure when he gets in, there's going to be players on the other team that want
01:59
to take him to the hole and maybe dunk on him if they can.
02:02
So it's a fascinating turn of events as if the Lakers needed another soap opera to make
02:09
their franchise more interesting.
