It’s getting harder to believe any athlete is drug free and I do have to wonder, are the Spurs clean? I can’t remember any player, at least relevant, since David Robinson that you could look at him and think “hey is that guy using PEDs?” Of course, knowing him, he is probably the last guy on Earth to use them.

Going for the first even year championship!

I always thought Manu’s body changed when he joined the Spurs. I’m sure that NBA athletes use some kind of performance enhancements (not necessarily illegal, mind you – I’m not sure what the rules are)… Or maybe I’m talking out of my ass, and they just have incredibly good trainers.

The drug of choice in the NBA is appetite enhancing, not performance. ;-)

The testosterone...

Test causes the body to produce estrogen to counterbalance

so Rashard getting smaller testicles and gynecomastia would probably be more likely.

Obviously, read the comments in the Y! article- there are a lot of names dropped in there, who people suspect could be using, or not. Not that comments mean anything, but it suuuure makes you think ’Does [insert name] use…or does [insert name] use….?"
