    Maybe be a player/coach?
    By then he will be so old he won’t be able to impact a game. Clearly we are seeing this now.

    I think what really would have been cool is if he went to a school like Univ. of Portland. Nice campus and area. Help make that team into a top 20 team, then you know the dude really does have the goods. But there's nothing wrong with staying close to home. I'm sure LeBron will have a security detail around to make sure no high jinx are going on.

    First thing I thought of was these Covid shots kids were forced to take. Lots of studies show that kids are having heart problems at a much higher rate now. A friend of mine shares all the data he comes across on the subject. Two months ago we had a 12 y/o girl go into cardiac arrest at he soccer training. Luckily her coach was her father who runs a sports medicine practice here. They were able to keep her alive but she did "die" twice. Medivac'd her to Phoenix Children's Hospital which is one of the greatest ones in the world. She is alive and has her faculties. No-one is speculating on why this happened. It was not 100 degrees out nor was she over exerting. No warning. My soon to be 10 year old has complained several times that his heart will start racing when he is just sitting watching television. So much so that he comes to let me know. His mother had him vaccinated. Too many incidents of heart trouble with our children now.

    The cause is the vaccine. It has been linked to heart problems in young male athletes all over the world. There are hundreds of stories in the last few years about athletes collapsing or dying on the playing field.

    https://www.cedars-sinai.org/newsroom/covid-infection-vaccination-linked-to-heart-condition/

    Investigators from the Smidt Heart Institute at Cedars-Sinai validated the link between a debilitating heart condition and COVID-19 and, to a lesser extent, a novel link between the same condition and COVID-19 vaccination.

    Their findings, published in the peer-reviewed journal Nature Cardiovascular Research, suggest that a small percentage of patients vaccinated against COVID-19 may develop postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, or POTS. The investigators also found that those diagnosed with COVID-19 are five times more likely to develop the same cardiac condition after infection than after vaccination, emphasizing the importance of the vaccine.

    That's probably what killed Batum's dad on the court in 1991...

    We are still learning about the long term consequences of COVID and by extension, the vaccine.

    It's very possible that COVID could have played a part in this.

    What about one of my best friends Tyrelle Jackson who died from a heart attack right in front of us on the court at Irving park in the summer of ‘91? COVID? Keep all this shit over on the OT page. Mods get this shit under control.

    I have a bum ticker and had one long before covid....since my vaccinations and boosters my heart rate has stabilized beyond anything I was experiencing before covid. All of my heart doctors are fully vaccinated...and none have died from heart failure, nor have any young athletes in any sports I follow. I check my heart rate daily and have for 8 years now...if covid vaccines caused heart failure, I'm the first guy who'd die from it...I've had the opposite experience...never felt better.Scientic method is demonstrable. the vast majority of basketball players have been vaccinated and not one NBA player has died on the court yet since covid. If you got covid early, it can incubate in your internal organs and cause health issues down the road from my understanding. As it is, the world I live around is healthy, happy and vaccinated. My children and grandchildren have no ill effects from being vaccinated to date. Check the fatalities from non vaccinated covid victims compared to vaccinated covid victims...it's not even a slightly close.

    So it was Covid vaccines that caused it?
    Or Covid-19 that caused it?
    How about steroids or other drug use?
    Maybe a birth defect or other heart problem?

    Maybe uninformed speculation isn’t a particularly helpful pastime?

    Let's keep the politics out of this thread. That's for OT. Let's also keep dangerous speculation out too. It's disrespectful to use Bronny's heart attack to push any such narrative.
