I myself would hate the Lebron hype train hitting my team, but I do wonder if it helps Luka with some maturity matters. The flip side is, does Lebron and Kyrie rub off on him too much?
Reports have said LBJ wants to play his last season with Bronny, and that he talks of playing until he's 45 (which is a soft number, when he is asked). So it may be quite a while before he goes "Bronny chasing."
In general on the Bronny thing, I mostly think LBJ is just putting out carrots to the NBA teams to get Bronny drafted and paid, so he may want to let it play out for as long as possible. It may all just be a tease of him being on the way to team X year after year (team X having grabbed Bronny in the draft with the thought that they get LBJ too, and perhaps for cheap), but then showing up at a time near the end of Bronny's 1st contract or even after that.
