Bronny James played 15 minutes in the Los Angeles Lakers' loss to the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday night, providing a tipping point for many pundits. Stephen A. Smith has already offered a plea to LeBron James as a father to let the rookie hone his skills in the G League, away from the microscope. Colin Cowherd added his thoughts on The Herd, contrasting the difference between the NFL and NBA.
"In the NFL media, coaches, fans, anybody, you can have real grownup conversations," Cowherd said. "You can hold players accountable. There's no walking on eggshells, there's a way to measure success. In the NBA you have to pretend that Bronny's an NBA player because otherwise you'll upset The King."
