Michael Phelps is the all-time best Olympic champion

But it was a great performance. Michael Phelps, all-time best Olympic champion. I think we can safely say that, right?

Phelps holds the record for most gold medals and total medals by any Olympian, making this the statistical reality.

Usain Bolt could play in the NFL as a Mike Wallace-type deep threat

I'm just saying we have to have the conversation of whether or not Usain Bolt could play in the NFL... I want to know if Usain Bolt, if you put him in pads, put him in a helmet – Can he take a hit? He wouldn't go across the middle. I already know that about him. He would be like a Mike Wallace type on the outside.

Bolt never played in the NFL, though he expressed interest. At his speed, the comparison is physically logical but technically untested.

LeBron James could be the fastest sprinter in the world if he wanted to

You have to imagine that if LeBron James wanted to, he could be the fastest sprinter in the world.

While LeBron is an elite athlete, the mechanics of world-class sprinting are highly specialized. This is an unfalsifiable but highly debatable claim.

I could win an Olympic silver medal in a swimming relay if I was on a team with Michael Phelps, Ryan Lochte, and Connor Dwyer

If you put me with Michael Phelps, Ryan Lochte, and Connor Dwyer, and we do the four-person 200 meters, I think we at least take silver.

In an Olympic final, the margins are measured in tenths of seconds. A non-professional swimmer would lose multiple minutes, making a silver medal impossible.

The series has just begun as of the episode date.

Victor Wembanyama is the best watch in the NBA right now

[Wembanyama] is the best watch in the NBA right now. It's not even close... just his entire performance leaving it like, he was so gassed that three that looked like we were talking about it, it looked like it was almost like there was a whistle beforehand because it was like in slow motion. It was just incredible.

This is a subjective opinion about entertainment value.
