00:00You did report last week, I believe, LeBron's dealing with some arthritis in his foot.
00:05How big of an issue do you think this is going to be for LeBron this year?
00:08Yeah, I mean, actually, I'm glad you brought that up because I included that in my story
00:12looking at, you know, what I could glean from the first week of training camp with this group.
00:18And maybe Sixers fans weren't following the Lakers as closely over the last couple of years.
