"So full of s**t"- Former MLB team executive berates Lakers and LeBron James over JJ Redick, Bronny James signings 

LeBron James and the LA Lakers are wrapped up in a controversial offseason following the signings of new head coach JJ Redick and James' own son, Bronny James, who they selected with the 55th pick in the NBA draft. Former Miami Marlins executive David Samson went scorched-earth on the deception he believes the Lakers are peddling in defense of their signings.

Speaking on the Dan Le Batard Show on Monday morning, Samson criticized the Lakers for bringing in Redick, a good friend of LeBron's, and then called out Redick himself for the new coach's defense of the Bronny draft pick.

"The Los Angeles Lakers are so full of s**t, and LeBron is the key conductor of that," Samson said. "All they had to do was have JJ Redick tell the truth when he was hired...he's player development case No. 1, is what JJ Redick said? Give me a break."

Samson continued to target Bronny specifically, saying he is not worth the $7.9 million that the team signed him for.

"Then they give you $7.9 million guaranteed money for a player who doesn't deserve a nickel guaranteed," he said.

Samson called out for being hypocrite over Lakers comments

David Samson served as president of the Miami Marlins from 2002 to 2017, and was a key part of their move from Montreal in 2002. He began working for the Expos in 1999, the same year his then-stepfather purchased a majority stake in the team.

Co-host and former NFL cornerback Domonique Foxworth was not afraid to mention the potential hypocrisy surrounding Samson's comments, saying he himself is on the receiving end of nepotism.

"David, you don't see the obvious reason why you are the worst person possible to make this argument?," he said.

Samson went on the defensive, pardoning himself but doubling down on the situation in Los Angeles, saying it's not comparable to his own history because he is willing to admit it.

"I am a beneficiary of nepotism," he said. "But how about admitting it? Why can't JJ acknoweldge what the Lakers did for LeBron."

But Foxworth continued to press Samson, arguing that in the case of both the Lakers and the Montreal Expos, it's unsurprising for a team to conceal details surrounding a signing that may be controversial to the public.

"You are pretending like you don't understand why they can't admit it," Foxworth said in response to Samson's critique of the Lakers being tongue-in-cheek over Bronny.

Samson wouldn't accept the light being shined on his hypocrisy, closing out his argument by saying his decisions as a team executive were always believable, unlike the story being told in Los Angeles.

"There was a possibility that people would buy what I am selling. There is nobody buying that Bronny James got $7.9 million because of his ability," he concluded.
