Bronny James’ BIGGEST Problem
Gilbert Arenas explains to the Gil’s Arena podcast crew why Bronny James is failing in the NBA. His game does not fit the NBA style yet. He needs to be aggressive and not pass. Lately, he has just been passing the ball and not attacking the basket. That is why the Los Angeles Lakers moved him down to the G-League to work on his game and become a more proactive score in the NBA. He is too indecisive says Gil as he explains why his favorite Los Angeles Laker will be spending most of his time in the G-League this season.
Gil’s Arena every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday at 11:30am PT / 2:30pm ET.

As of now, he is bad at reading offense and defense. Does not know when to drive, cut or even shoot.
Everyone is a Hater in the comments. Which is Ultra Sad. I feel bad for you guys life's ❗️🤦🏾♀️🤱🏾🤷🏾♂️
Ironically Gils son Alijah is cold
I think Bronny's problem is less about him second guessing his passes specifically, and more to do with being able to explain every single thing he does on the floor, with or without the ball, to LeBron at any given moment. Instead of being able to develop any flow and less instincts and training take over, he is forced to think of everything he does, before he does it, as he is doing it and then the outcome of whatever action he took. It results in slowing everything he does down slightly and affects his self confidence, getting worse over time. Not a situation with a winning outcome.
I disagree agent zero
He just needs time to develop…
I agree gil
“Everything is secondary to him”. That is because he don’t belong in the NBA. Bronny is only there because of LeBron and everyone knows it.
Bronny does not have the skill set and not good enough. Dont know why these guys are acting like it is his mentality and IQ. Stop making excuses for him!
My question is how in the hell, this liar, womanizer, fake trainer black jj Reddick don't like gil act like he know everything…
He is just not NBA level talent. Stop tryna dance around it. It is what it is. He'll be fine. Doesn't need the NBA.
The problem with his game is that he is not good enough and nobody wants to tell him that.
He needed 4 years of college. LeBron was the ultimate specimen and bronny will never fill his shoes.
I thought yall said he was a professional.
I agree
The problem is he never really wanted to play ball. Let that boy go be a content creator and play video games. Got that boy in the G-League wishing he could be on Kai’s stream right now! Rey just came back home too! 🖖🏿!
He's not good enough never was nor is
Is that his only problem as a player?.. hopefully the young man can improve , but a lot more talented players ended up playing overseas ..he have lebron in his corner so he has a chance ..lets see..
He is passive because he's not into basketball like that this is more like a side quest for him.
You look to score cuz you was trying to get out of the hood
Everyone wanted him to be like Lebron. Lebron played football. His aggression comes from football.
The problem with his game is he sucks just be real
He can’t play
If bronny was aggressive he would shot 3/18 that’s not the problem he’s not a nba player that’s the problem
‼️JEWEL‼️Pay attention Bronny you might learn something👨🏾🎓
Passive? His game is TRASHive. He needs to maximize every opportunity while in the G-League and definitely work on being more aggressive.
No fella he’s not NBA READY AN NEVER WILL BE
THE WORLD KNOW THAT THE ONLY REASON HES THERE IS BCUZ OF HIS DAD HE WASNT D1 MATERIAL GIL IS A JAMES NUT RIDER SIMPLE AS THAT BE HONEST AN REAL
Send him to the D league
This is the reason that said that Brony modeled his game after the wrong players IE: his dad ! Bronny does not got the luxury of being 6’6 and above to get away playing passive and basic and he was not set up to play aggressive that was a fail on Brons and what ever training Bronny went under all those years before college he had access to guys like Kyrie and CP3 or Rondo and Westbrook. Look at Melos Son, Melo clearly trained his son and had trainers teach his son how to play aggressive and gave him all the offensive tools like proper footwork and proper timing etc etc to play free on the court at any height that’s reason he “looks” better than Bronny to most
Excellent take, but Gil said this last year, though. He had Bronny working out with Alijah and a couple other 4/5 stars, and Gil had to play mind games to get Bronny to be aggressive in 1s.
He’s not NBA material. Simple as that. Stop coming up with reasons. Everyone has levels. NBA ain’t it.
Mj was begging to get he's sons drafted the bull's said nope peoples are mad at bron for that ladies don't date dem they probably deadbeats
He’s always played like that. I feel bad for him
shooting 2/10 you want him to be more aggressive? go 4/20?
Gil is 💯 on that I been telling everyone he's looking to pass to much he's making the game harder on his self
He got to develop that as some players do. Majority of the league is guys who need 3-4 years to get better. Wemby is tall but he one as well. Steve Nash took a while to develop his game and so did many other players.
The biggest problem is he isn't good at the most elite level, like a whole lot of athletes who where much better than him. It's not the end of the world but his father putting so much pressure on him has made it a huge problem
Gilbert where was all of this advice when you was training him for the look of if he was ANBA player you didn't say that a year ago
If u a pro in anything u should be ready..that's what a pro is..pro assassin don't miss..can't be passive
. wrong job
The problem is he is not built for NBA nor Chinese basketball league
That was Lonzo ball problem
He's like his dad in the 4th quarter.
Cus he trash
He sucks 😂
Facts I just seen a comment I been saying the whole time he was never a scorer or aggressive hes supposed to be a 3 n d make the right play kinda guy n develop over time but he’s just looking dirt let’s be real
I like the guy there’s nothing to not like he has been put in a position he couldn’t control but only react he needs too ltake control
Bronny should have stayed in school. Bron wanted to play w/ his son so bad. They he missed what was best for Bronny. Well he got the moment of them playing together. But they will not get any more because Bronny is not ready. It would look bad on the Lakers to bring him up from G League until he is a better player.
Gil on point, I always said when Gil is not trolling, he knows the game of basketball
It seems mfs forget what a point guards actual job is
