Michael when he entered the league vs. after bulking up. Imagine being NBA Rookie of the Year, and yet still so raw. He always had the talent, then battling the Pistons pushed him to the next level. pic.twitter.com/4RiihK3Q8N
An important lesson I learned during my baseball career: I would rather be pitching when we lose than not be on the field. Blame me for the loss. That’s fine. But I want to be in the arena. I’d rather have that responsibility and fail than not be trusted at all.
It's funny the main criticism against LeBron is he needs help. In reality, there is no player less dependent on the system around them. Different coach? Doesn't matter. Different teammates? Doesn't matter. Different conference? Doesn't matter. He makes any combination work.

Shaan and I have spent a lot of energy talking about this new NCAA law that lets athletes make $$$. One big thing we discussed: accounting and compliance tools for both athletes and schools. What startups are currently working on this? I'm super into it. pic.twitter.com/dgBWhMbRtc
