Dream Team 4: Golden State Warriors

[Cassity14]

My guess is that Lebron used HGH since it wasn't tested rather then roids (it would fit the jaw tumors that were removed). Lebron has always been huge and athletic compared to his peer group. Greens transformation is completely different he just didn't have this kind of lift in college

I agree that LeBron was probably on HGH. Are we trying to separate HGH from PEDs to fit the narrative? HGH is a PED.

I just think it's funny the lengths people will go on here to attack Golden State when our team has a guy who gets away with whatever he wants too.

Curry was seriously injured one season. Just because he hasn't been since doesn't mean he's all of a sudden taking a bunch of drugs. Green went from being a college athlete to a professional. Did Kevin Love get into incredible shape after entering the league because of PEDs as well?

It's one thing to hate them and want to beat them. It's another thing to judge someone based on their actions. I don't like Green because of the way he acts. I don't like Durant because of the decision he made. I don't like Curry because of the way he acts entitled.

It's an entirely different thing to question the integrity of someone's career just because we want more excuses not to like them.

Even if both Cavs and GSW used PEDs, GSW's peds were better. GSW's peds probably colluded to form the best PED known to man.

I stated that I suspect he was on HGH rather then roids which I suspect Green is on. In no way did I insinuate that HGH was not a PED. However, there is a difference in what these drugs do: completely different in their biochemistry and impact on body. I would prefer everyone be clean but it is interesting to speculate what impact this stuff has on people's bodies. HGH seems to help with recovery and endurance with the limited research showing very limited impact on muscle mass. Roids obviously a different situation (and obviously you can take both as well!)

I'm one of the few people who actually really likes Curry on this board: i think he's a terrific and very unique player in the history of the NBA (just don't find guys who can keep everyone involved in the offense while taking shots only a ballhog would normally like). I also have always been a fan of Livingston and AI both of whom take that team from being a typical championship caliber team to elite category

Hate Draymond and the way he acts on the court particularly how he shows up the refs and gets away with and it and the whole kick to the nuts act (very similar to why I hated Karl Malone and his drive to the basket with his leg extended in a full karate kick pose on the way to the basket)

With the rest pretty meh on Durant and Thomspon.

Just FYI steroids and other PED's and drugs designed to clean your system are just so advanced right now that if done right by a professional, they're simply 100% undetectable.

Lebron most definitely used more than just HGHs. HGHs don't make you lose hair. High testosterone and higher DHT makes you lose hair. Genetics play a big part of it, but losing his hairline so fast was pretty drastic. I'm guessing Lebron also took some kind of an anabolic steroid aswell.
Jordan also lost his hair in the same fashion in 88' and decided to shave his head.

Kobe, Vince, Kareem, Shaq, Malone, Charlie Villanueva, Damn all the great players lose their hair, it's a pattern.. or do you just need to take the right compound to be great? NO ONE KNOWS.

Does that make these guys the strongest players in history of the NBA?

Tbh and real, Charlie Villanueva has a medical condition called Alopecia, that's why the doesn't have eyebrows. Boozer OTOH was clearly on something but the PEDs only affected his offense.

LOL @ boozer's hair looking like it was drawn on by a sharpie.

Klay Thompson is very fortunate he's an excellent basketball player.

Shitting on NBA players for maybe possibly using PEDs in this forum is pretty funny.

Guys, have you not seen LeBron's body transformations over the last fourteen years?

I don't think LB, as we know, was/is ever on PEDs. The guy came into the league built like a man. That's just his natural built. He's got a big head, thick legs, just everything about him is thick. That's just natural genetics.

Unless he was literally using them since his days at Saint Mary's, which would be incredibly difficult to think that. And disturbing to say the least.

Sure, he's gotten physically bigger, but most people don't reach their physical peaks until their mid to early 30s. So there's nothing to suspect that he ever took steroids.

There's been HGH rumors, but nothing concrete.

As for Green, his body has gone under quite a transformation, almost night and day since his college days. To go along with his hot temper, what can only wonder.

I can't tell if this post is supposed to be sarcastic. Your secret compound is just male pattern baldness. It happens naturally in men in their mid 20s, 30s, and beyond. Just because taking roids can make you start balding, doesn't mean that starting to bald is evidence of taking roids.

So Green lost weight and toned up and he's on PEDs..but LeBron, who went from a beanpole to a statue isn't? Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhok.

How about both players went from being part time basketball players to full time professionals who devoted their lives to the game, which includes staying in top physical condition?

LOL at the idea LeBron didn't take any PED's.

And LeBron went from body builder big to the size he is now just because he "felt like he needed to drop weight" a year before the NBA started doing testing over new stuff. Sure thing man.

As for Green "transforming", again, I point to Kevin Love doing the exact same thing.

When you become a professional, you have way more opportunitites to get into peak physical form.

Green was every bit as passionate at MSU as he is in the NBA.
