Pennington : I believe Reshard was an accident, I don’t want to look at Basketball the way I do baseball now, I don’t care how ridiculous of an athlete Lebron is, I believe he isn’t on PEDS p.s. Atleast we know KD isn’t on ‘roids

The boy gets his vitamins thats all.

Dwight Howard has a gigantic upper body, but the rest of him is pretty skinny. I don’t think he is on anything.

I’ve watched Rashard his whole career, from crying baby 18 year old in the draft room to his first all star game, being brow beat by Gary Payton, to being bonafide running mate with Ray Allen. He doesn’t look much different now than he did at 18. Just a little more muscle on the biceps and shoulders, but not a whole bunch.

There is just no way he’s on anything anabolic or he would look like Dwight Howard right now. He is 6’10 just like Howard, but he looks like a bit more muscley (sp?) Kevin Durant.

@DSMok1 What part about Lebron's physique and game screams normal or run of the mill? He is a genetic anomaly. But I don't think that steroids have that big of an impact in basketball as they do in football and baseball because guys are more lean and want less bulk in basketball than other sports.

@DSMok1 From what I understand, what Rashard tested positive for isn't an anabolic steroid. It's something that's legal to take in Major League Baseball. It's a supplement that raises your testosterone just barely.

Yep, here come the PEDs…

Just looking at some of the players, I’d bet there are several more on them. Lebron, perhaps; his physique seemed unnatural way back at age 18. Dwight Howard, on the same team as Rashard, also looks unnatural. What do you all think? I don’t care what people say about basketball not being impacted by steroids… speed, quickness, and strength certainly play in basketball!

@dj James was picked 3rd btw. But even Brooks said that nothing is guaranteed as far as minutes are concerned. But I think you'll see Thabo play a lot of 2 and most of KD's backup minutes as well.

James Harden didn’t get picked at #4 to be a bench/rotation player. But this season is all about winning games, so he’ll have to legitimately beat out Thabo for the starting spot. I’m just predicting he will.

I also like the 2nd unit… Livingston, Sefolosha, Collison & White with a starter tossed in their. Could be any starter really with their flexibility.
