ver the Knicks, centered around Smith's past comments regarding Bronny's NBA leg
itimacy. James reportedly confronted Smith over criticism of his son, leading to
a heated discussion that became one of the biggest talking points in sports med
ia.
這場爭執發生在湖人擊敗尼克隊之前，焦點圍繞在 Smith 過去對 Bronny 是否具備 NBA 資

Portnoy Calls Out LeBron's Hypocrisy
Portnoy 指控 LeBron 的虛偽
In a fiery rant posted to social media, Portnoy slammed LeBron's reaction, calli
ng it "one of the most ridiculous controversies in the history of civilization."
He argued that Bronny, as a professional player in the NBA, should not be immun
e from criticism.
在社群媒體上的激烈發言中，Portnoy 痛斥 LeBron 的反應，稱這是「人類文明史上最荒謬
的爭議之一」。他強調，既然 Bronny 是 NBA 職業球員，就不應該被免除批評。
"LeBron doesn't want Stephen A., the media, or whoever talking about Bronny, who
is a professional basketball player on one of the most storied franchises in th
e league," Portnoy said. "What are we talking about here?"
「LeBron 不希望 Stephen A.、媒體，或任何人評論 Bronny——但他是 NBA 其中一支歷史
最悠久球隊的職業球員，」Portnoy 說道。「這到底是在搞什麼？」
Portnoy also brought up a 2018 interview in which LeBron admitted regretting nam
ing his son after himself due to the pressure it would bring. He then blasted Ja
mes for allegedly forcing the Lakers to draft Bronny despite his struggles at US
C.
Portnoy 也提到 LeBron 在 2018 年的一次訪談中承認，自己後悔把兒子取名為 Bronny，因
為這會帶來額外壓力。然而，如今他卻強迫湖人隊選 Bronny，即使他在 USC 表現不佳。

"Then he forces the Lakers to draft this kid in the NBA before he's ready," Port
noy continued. "He didn't even start at USC! Now he's in a big boy league playin
g against big boy players, and he stinks. And LeBron doesn't want the media to t
alk about it?"
「然後他強迫湖人隊在 NBA 選這個孩子，儘管他還沒準備好，」Portnoy 接著說道。「他在
USC 甚至連先發都沒當過！現在他進入一個真正的成年聯盟，對上真正的職業球員，而他表
現糟糕。結果 LeBron 不希望媒體討論這件事？」
Portnoy Criticizes Stephen A. Smith's Soft Stance
Portnoy 批評 Stephen A. Smith 態度軟弱
While Smith defended his past remarks by claiming he was criticizing LeBron's de
cision to push Bronny into the league, not the player himself, Portnoy wasn't bu
ying it. He called out Smith for softening his stance and treating LeBron with "
kid gloves" on First Take.
儘管 Smith 為自己過去的言論辯解，聲稱自己批評的是 LeBron 把 Bronny 推進 NBA 的決
定，而不是 Bronny 本人，Portnoy 並不買帳。他抨擊 Smith 在《First Take》上的態度過
於溫和，對 LeBron 網開一面。
"Stephen A. with kid gloves today," Portnoy said. "If that's anyone else, he's r
ipping them apart."
「Stephen A. 今天戴上了小孩手套，」Portnoy 說道。「換作其他人，他早就把他們罵爆了
。」
Portnoy ended his rant with a brutal comparison, arguing that Jayson Tatum's 7-y
ear-old son, Deuce, is more valuable to the Celtics than Bronny is to the Lakers
.
Portnoy 最後更做出殘酷的比較，聲稱 Jayson Tatum 7 歲的兒子 Deuce，對塞爾提克的價
值甚至比 Bronny 對湖人的貢獻還大。
"If you don't want the media to talk about how your son is overmatched and looks
like a Make-A-Wish, then don't force him onto the team," Portnoy said. "Let him
go to the G-League. Let him go to college. Let him earn it."
「如果你不想讓媒體討論你兒子明顯力不從心、看起來像是圓夢計畫（Make-A-Wish）球員，
那就不要強迫他進入球隊」Portnoy 說道。「讓他去 G-League，讓他去大學，讓他自己證明
實力。」
The controversy continues to fuel debate about LeBron's influence in the NBA and
whether Bronny was drafted based on merit or favoritism.
這場爭議持續引發外界討論，關於 LeBron 在 NBA 的影響力，以及 Bronny 是因為實力還是
特權被選中的爭議仍在延燒。
Regardless, one thing is clear-this story isn't going away anytime soon.
無論如何，可以確定的是——這個話題短時間內不會消失。
