LeBron James will never be 100% healthy again

He's old. He's 36. He's not as dominant as he used to be. He's never going to be 100% again. He said it himself.

This is largely a medical and subjective opinion, though LeBron has continued to have high-level seasons, he has consistently battled more significant injuries in his late 30s.

LeBron James will pull an 'Aaron Rodgers' and publicly flirt with retirement this offseason to get people talking

My prediction for this offseason is that LeBron James, he's going to pull like an Aaron Rodgers. He's going to publicly flirt with retiring, but privately he's going to be like, I'm going to come back. But he wants people to talk about whether or not this is the end of the road for him.

LeBron did return for the next season and did not significantly flirt with retirement that specific summer; the Rodgers comparison holds more weight for LeBron's 2023 offseason.

LeBron James' playoff losses are partly karma for how Space Jam: A New Legacy handled Lola Bunny

All I'll say is it might be karma for giving Lola Bunny a small ass. Yeah. The basketball gods caught up with [LeBron James].

The take is inherently absurd and satirical; the connection between a character's anatomy in a movie and a basketball series outcome is not a causal fact.

The Lakers would have beaten the Suns if Anthony Davis stayed healthy

I do think – I'll say one nice thing about the Lakers. I do think that if Anthony Davis stays healthy in this series, it's totally different. They were up 2-1, tie ball game, game four, and he gets hurt.

This is a hypothetical outcome that cannot be proven, though the Lakers were leading the series before the injury.

Derrick Henry is one of the last running backs with a Hall of Fame case

He's gonna be one of the last running backs that's gonna go into the Hall. Hall of Fame for running backs is gonna get very difficult soon.

Hall of Fame selection is partly subjective, and the future class of running backs has not been determined.

The Bears' offense may be record-breaking under Ben Johnson

Ben Johnson said, 'We're trying to break the record,' and so far, obviously small sample size, one game, good start.

The Bears' full-season offensive output has not been resolved.

I am giving Ben Johnson total control

I will hand over all free will and thought and just give it to him and be like, whatever you say, I will just do whatever you decide. I will say, yes, that was the correct decision.

This is a subjective expression of confidence in a coach's decision-making.
