Nick Wright explains to Dan on why Lebron James is the greatest player ever. Nick talks about all the factors that people dont realize about Michael Jordan. Nick tells Dan that the scrutiny is so tough on Lebron and it is that same scrutiny that drained Michael Jordan and made him to need a break from the game. Alex Smith agrees with Dan that him playing caused the most stress on his wife in the stands watching. Alex says he wants to compete for the starting job, and that it did help him that he was thrust into playing during the game instead of knowing a whole week in advance.
