@battlecrazewu: "Putting Bronny James in for 7.6 seconds to appease the #Raptor / #Lakers fans when the game is over, is a slap in the face to the kid. Leave him on the bench unless you want to let him some real reps. Does nothing for him by making him into a sideshow @Lakers"

Josh Lewenberg: "7.6 seconds of Bronny and the crowd goes wild. Might have to retire JJ Redick's jersey here too."

@gmforbes35: "LOL. Bronny James played just 7.6 seconds in the Lakers games against the Raptors tonight.

The final 7.6 seconds of the game. When the Lakers were up by like 11.

My dude would be nowhere near the NBA right now if it wasn't for LeBron."
