Gilbert Arenas on Kwame Brown: "This [] probably didn’t sleep. This [] did three—he did three videos. Those three videos did more—combined—than all the videos he’s done in 2025." "I’mma just be honest with you—this [__]’s videos on me did more than all the rest of his videos combined. That’s crazy." "Like, he should be thanking me. He gonna get a nice little $300–$400 check from YouTube, you feel me?" "He gonna get a nice little YouTube check, boy. Them numbers, boy. I know he be sitting on the internet just waiting for [__] to get in trouble."

Kwame Brown on Gilbert Arenas: "Why the [ __ ] would he do that with all that money he making? That was the only reason why I popped up on here, man. I had to ask you that one, dog." "Cuz he don't know how to do no goddamn business. That's the problem. I don't get it, man. I hope he beat the charge, cuz that's stupid. He got a son that's goddamn hooping." "Why in the hell would you be trying—like how much money is enough is what I'm trying to figure out? My question is, why would you do this after—like your podcast is really popping off, don't get me wrong—but now you about to lose a lot of endorsements and sponsorships just off of that bad publicity. I told that boy he's a dummy and he self-sabotage everything. It don't matter how good he have it—he going to do something stupid."

Kwame Brown is celebrating following today’s news about Gilbert Arenas and Shannon Sharpe

Former Lakers big man Kwame Brown, who previously warned that James could turn out to be a bust, slammed the guard, as well as his famous father, superstar LeBron James, in a YouTube video (at 0:20). "Bronny's performance last night, it was horrendous, like I just don't understand," Brown said. "He has a father who's arguably the best player who ever played the game, but it shows that it was just off of his athleticism, because his son don't know the basic principles."

Kwame Brown: "He’s supposed to cut, or if the guy drives, you fill in behind. I don’t understand how he doesn’t understand these basic concepts if his daddy is LeBron. These are simple concepts. This is not bashing him; it’s just that these commentators are not going to talk basketball talk."

Kwame Brown: "No, I'm not an MJ fan. Listen, I got no reason to be an MJ fan. That motherf****r slapped me in the back of my head one day. But I'm just, I got no reason to do — no reason at all. I'm just, I just saw the work and the dedication. This old Negro was getting up at 39 years old. He never cheated the game, whether he went out, whatever he did. The Breakfast Club was real. I’m like, I joined the Breakfast Club because I couldn’t believe it. I’m like, ain’t no way this old, after being up standing there all night gambling, no way this gonna be here at 6:00. That dude was already in the weight room lifting at 5:45. I’m like, he's a machine. I couldn’t believe it. Every morning, he’s like that. No matter what he does, he never cheated the game."

Kwame Brown on LeBron James: "But the problem is, when he plays teams like Chicago or Boston, who have real solid principles, he has trouble. And so the old-school players wouldn't have any trouble with LeBron because, at 39, he should have developed a mid-range and a post game, and he still hasn't yet. He still has the athletic ability to just go 94 feet — which, I don't know how, but he still has it. But if he didn't have this athleticism, his game really hasn't evolved outside of a three and putting his head down and going to the basket. He doesn't go like Paul Pierce, getting to a spot, pulling up. Those are the things you normally see out of a superstar player."

Kwame Brown on Bronny James:"But I see a guy who’s athletic that needs to learn how to cut and slash more until he gets more comfortable with shooting. If he doesn’t learn how to play the point guard, I don’t think he’s as strong as David Wesley. At his size — 6’1, 6’2 — he’s the only guy that I’ve seen who could play that spot at the two. If he doesn’t learn how to bring the ball up, he’s going to be a poor man’s Juan Dixon. I think he’ll bounce around. His daddy has enough power with Klutch Sports to keep him in the league, but after that, if he doesn’t learn how to play point, he’s gonna fizzle out."

Kwame Brown: "This is the travesty that people are not realizing. They’re acting like the 55th pick ain’t nothing. But don’t you think the kid from NC State, who is a proven double-double monster, could have been a project? Lose a little weight — this kid is a monster. What’s his name, the center for NC State? DJ Burns. How can you make a case for Bronny James, a guy that had a heart issue, that hadn’t proven anything, against a guy that went to a good school and put up numbers against everybody?"

In the 14-year span from 1979 to 1993, we saw four no. 1s who would win multiple titles as their team’s centerpiece: Magic Johnson (1979), Hakeem Olajuwon (1984), David Robinson (1987), and Shaquille O’Neal (1992). Several others would become Hall of Famers, including James Worthy (1982), Patrick Ewing (1985), and Chris Webber (1993). But the past 25 years have been strewn with disappointments, from Kwame Brown (2001) to Greg Oden (2007) to Anthony Bennett (2013) to Markelle Fultz (2017). Some no. 1s found sustained stardom—Griffin, Derrick Rose (2008), John Wall (2010)—but hit a ceiling or were sapped by injuries. Even Deandre Ayton (2018), who made the 2021 Finals as the Phoenix Suns’ third-best player, now looks like another cautionary tale.
