In the playoffs of the 24-25 season, when the Lakers ran into the Nuggets again.

After more than 40 minutes of hard fighting, Jokic and Murray (who just renewed their contracts for 4 years and 205 million today) once again led the team to catch up with the score.

Head coach Redick called the last timeout in his hand to give James, who is already 40 years and 150 days old, a breather.

Draining the last bit of energy drink in his hand, James looked at his son standing next to him, who was also wearing the Lakers playoff version of the jersey with himself, and tried to squeeze out a smile.

"Next, Daddy will win your first playoff game."

then debuted, two three-pointers, eliminated the Nuggets, and finally avenged the first two years of one-shot revenge.

Just like in Dragon Ball.

Unsurprisingly, the Lakers took Bronny James with the 55th pick in the second round in this year's draft, and next season we will witness the first time in history that a father and son will be on the same stage and team.

The Lakers are the league's most spoiled superstar and gimmick-making team, and we can already see how many people around the world are looking forward to Bronny's second-round No. 55 debut, and even more so than this year's No. 10 No. 100 pick.

And LeBron James once again proved that he is still a man at the center of power in the NBA.

No team dares to try to intercept Brownie, a good thing for James. As Bob Myers, the former general manager of the old rival Warriors and current ESPN commentator, revealed

"Rich Paul (owner of Klutch's agency and co-agent of James and Bronny) has warned all teams not to pick Bronny. Otherwise, he's going to play in Australia, he has a plan and a family, and no one will try again. ”

We have to admit that just looking at Bronny's performance in college, he showed enough instant power and potential to land in the NBA now, and there are a lot of peers in the United States who are better than him.

But who made his father James, he can achieve goals that others can't think of, and do things that others can't.

When your dad has achieved the absolute head position in a field, if you also enter the system, you have the connections and resources that no one else can match.

This is true at any time, in any region, in any country.

What's more, LeBron James, who always puts family first, comes from a single-parent family, and always wants to be a perfect father.

Turning back to the Lakers, they didn't expect Bronny's arrival to really improve the team, and it was unlikely that they would even be able to provide any substantial help in the next four years.

The biggest significance of his foothold with the Lakers is to find new extra motivation for James, who is already 40 years old.

For LeBron, who has played 21 years in his career, 1,797 games, and 68,455 minutes of NBA games, it is not easy to maintain his career enthusiasm at this age.

He once compared his ankle to "a 03-year-old Cadillac tire that has never been replaced", and his physical ability is gradually declining with the naked eye, and the warnings are becoming more and more frequent.

Even if he is as tough as him, there will be a day when he gets tired of the game.

It's different now, the only time in history that an NBA star can be on the same team as his son, and that's a new and unique motivation.

Powerful people like Russell, Jordan, and Magic have never had it, and evergreen people like Abdul-Jabbar, Kobe, and Magic have never experienced it.

Only those who have been fathers will understand that showing themselves as a hero in front of their children is almost the ultimate experience that a man looks forward to for a lifetime.

No man can resist this temptation, let alone LeBron, who loves his son.

What's more, the father-son team itself is a gimmick and the only one in history? But it is also a huge challenge.

Both James and Bronny will be under extra pressure, and if the Lakers don't have a good record next season, then they will be denied ridicule and ridicule.

近两个赛季以来，见惯了大风大浪的詹姆斯早已习惯了各种调侃，比如“Who's your daddy”或者“Win a real ring ”。

He won't condescend to deal with the hairy boys in the alliance.

But now that Brownie is here, can the old lion king endure his lion cub being teased and ridiculed by others?

The obvious answer is that it only makes him want to win as many games as possible and make Bronny's rookie year a little more comfortable.

Trust me, in the NBA in '24-25, we're going to see more of the "Full Force" because of a father.

The young Bronny is LeBron's best energy pump, which is the most important "basketball meaning" for the Lakers to choose him.
