Al Jefferson. Anti-doping! Suspended!?!?

[TwoWays]

Is this a first for NBA? More to come? Lebron?

[JIBBBY]

Do performance enhancers really help in the NBA? I figured it could mess with your shot because of the added muscle mass..

I guess it can make you faster alla Ben Johnson in the 100 yard dash.. I guess PED's can increase your cardio alla Lance Armstrong as well.. PED's also help with recovery..

Yeah, I guess I can see why the NBA is dropping the hammer now..

Chris Paul
Lebroom James
Melo
Harden

it's more for recovery than building muscles.

I think they like to nab a mid-level players to put the stars on notice. These always come in bunches.

As for performance enhancers, you can be assured that almost every NBA player takes HGH.

Jalen Rose broke this down, and said it required 3 violations for big al's name to be publicized and for him to be suspended without pay for 5 games.

on the one hand big al got to smoke his pot. On the other hand he will lose over 800k worth of pay. Seems worth it. Yikes!!!!!!!!

Chris Paul
Lebroom James
Melo
Harden

Paul, Melo, and Harden are all fat

LeBrick gets his cycle of HGH whenever he takes those random in-season trips down to Miami to "recover"

For how no one here ever uses google or does any research.

Those accusations are newsworthy, would you be willing to do a one on one with me to discuss these allegations and a follow up on a later date?
