LeBron James is on steroids because of his size and longevity

I will go with LeBron James. I mean, how is he not on steroids? That big. I'm not throwing a flag. That's probably an honorable mention. I mean there's, that's probably an honorable mention.

There is no public evidence or failed tests to support this claim, making it purely speculative/incorrect in a factual sense.

Sebastian Telfair was going to be the greatest NBA player of all time

Sebastian Telfair Through the Wire. I watched that movie like this kid is going to be... I was like this He's skipping College like he's dominating Dwight Howard. He is going to be the greatest NBA player of all time.

Telfair had a journeyman career and never became an All-Star, let alone the greatest.

Greg Oden was a better prospect than Kevin Durant

I was Big Time Greg Odin's better than Kevin Durant and I was like, how can you pass on a big man this good? I think I was probably biased because he played you know, I watched him play the Big Ten... I would have put everything on Greg Oden being that block.

Durant is a first-ballot Hall of Famer; Oden's career was derailed by knee injuries.

James Harden's step-back move is a travel every single time

All right, my third travel complaint is James Harden's little step-back move that he does. That is absolutely a travel. It's a walk every single time. He travels, and they never call it. It's disgusting.

While controversial, the NBA officially clarified that his signature move is legal under the 'gather step' rule.

LeBron James is addicted to HGH

The 30 for 30 on LeBron leading his team through subtweets and an addiction to HGH... I think he's proof positive of that.

There is no verifiable evidence that LeBron James is addicted to or uses HGH.

Wally Szczerbiak and Keith Van Horn were going to be incredible NBA players

I thought that Nick Kaner-Medley, Wally Szczerbiak, Steve Wojciechowski, and Keith Van Horn would all be incredible NBA players.

While they had decent careers (Szczerbiak and Van Horn especially), they were not 'incredible' or elite superstars as predicted.

Rajon Rondo is just one notch below Paul Pierce in Celtics history

When Rajon Rondo got traded to the Mavericks, I said he was a notch below Pierce, who was like a notch below Bill Russell.

Pierce and Russell are top-tier legends with retired jerseys; Rondo's legacy, while strong, is several tiers lower.
