LeBron James

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
This photo btw underlines why most of us don't think Lebron ever used PED. That photo shows a totally natural physical progression from age 18 to age 33.

Look, I'm a HUGE LeBron fan, and I think he's the best player of all time.

But this photo proves nothing.

He was WAY bigger than he is now when he was in Miami, and also, there are plenty of benefits to PEDs beyond adding size.

How big was Lance Armstrong?

That and he could have started using in High School and stopped using after he left the Heat.
 
Personally, I believe that a person can't be a professional athlete in major professional sports without some form of PEDs, and I think it has been this way for at least several decades. I'm 37, steroids have been around in sport since the 50s I think. I think with the schedules, the pressure, the injury risk, and especially the money, everyone looks for the edge. I have no issue with it. MJ absolutely used, IMO, and so did LBJ. Those two are the two grestest basketball players ever, IMO, and it's not that close. 82 professional games per year, and another 18-25 for most of their prime, with everyone else doing the same thing? I don't understand the uproar. Griffey, Jr. is my second favorite athlete ever, after Lebron, but Bonds is the best hitter I ever saw, and the GOAT, IMO, PEDs be damned. Pitchers, Kawaii, KD, Curry, Iggy (Obviously), are all juiced, and we are entertained by GOAT lever artistic performance. So be it. Lebron is juiced, and he's still probably the best basketball player ever (at worst top-2), regardless of a fictional, "all-natural" narrative.

Absolutely. EVERYONE is on some form of performance enhancer. And you know what, there's not a damn thing wrong with it.

Because it still doesn't enhance their skill, their work ethic, nor their genetic makeup.
 
LOL, OK, this will be my last post on it. But PEDs bring permanent physical changes, and if everyone was on them it wouldn't be so easy to pick out the people who were.

Just for fun, check out Barry Bonds at 19:

His physical progression looks just a little different from Lebron's!
 
LeBron was on Road Trippin...I think it was taped last week but still a good episode. It was mostly about his new shoes. But a few cool quotes.

On the Browns---(some paraphrasing....but his is basically what he said)

"That's the team I be watching every week. Every game, losing, mannnn. That's my team though. I'm a fan. People know I'm a cowboys fan but they don't know that I'm a Browns fan 1st. If the Browns played the Cowboys in the super bowl...I'd root for the Browns just like I root for the Indians vs the Yankees. That's my team man, that's where I'm from. I ride for my city"

On Channing Frye talking shit to people on social media

"From your own account or a fake one?"
(RJ went nuts here.."BURNNNNNNNNNN")

LeBron truly seems happy here. I really don't think he's leaving. It's just so much different this time around versus the year before his last free agency. I feel like the way LeBron is acting is totally different (same as the year he left Miami to come here...he was just acting differently those years)

Dude was a HOF'er without the roids...
 
It's funny. I'm up drunk AF watching SportsCenter. The entire highlight session was Giannis. Dunks, interviews, etc... feeding off the Durant narrative that he could be the best ever one day and all that jazz. If I'm Milwaukee I'm thrilled, the kids incredible and has all the tools. But at the end of the day, all it does it make me so thankful in what we've witnessed in LeBron. Each year everyone tries to pass the torch. Giannis might take the reign one day but LeBron is aiming for his 8th straight finals. This shit is unreal. He's not slowing down anytime soon. No matter who they throw as the next great thing the bar is continually raised every year LeBron James plays basketball. I'm just thrilled to have this MF'er suiting up for us every night and watching his greatness. It won't happen forever but sweet baby Jesus I enjoy every moment.
 
Maybe LeBron wanted Wade because he knew how great a fit he would be on the Thunder. Wade would have been perfect off their bench.

Better to stack the deck in your favor eh?

It's 1:00 in the morning and LeBron is bumping Future by himself on Instagram. He's somethin' else that's for sure.
