Legal or not.

LeBron is running around like a 27 yo. It's hilarious if people think he isn't doping or doing something next level.
Compare him to his brothers. At least when a superstar dopes with dangerous PED's they do it with a lab or doctors supervision. High school and gym rat athletes dope in a wild west environment and occasionally have tragic results because of it.

In a past interview, Jordan's former teammate BJ Armstrong spoke about Michael Jordan's mentality and hard work.

He revealed that Michael Jordan almost never slept during his career. Armstrong shared his amazement over Jordan playing 40 minutes a night, getting almost no sleep, and then coming into practice and playing at a level higher than anyone there. Armstrong believes that MJ never slept during his career.

"... Everybody else is a little tired. And all of a sudden, when Phil Jackson blew the whistle, this guy acts like he got 10 hours of sleep. And, he didn’t eat. You got a guy that didn’t sleep, he didn’t eat, he’s playing cards, or whatever he’s doing at night… And the guy is playing, and you’re just like ‘wait a minute, he just played 45 minutes the other night. How?”

Were nba guys known to take greenies like mlb players? I'm not going to be shocked if a hyper competitive person does things to get an advantage.

Anybody who has ever lifted weights knows running and jumping are complete opposite of what you are supposed to do maintain weightlifting gains. A typical weightlifter is supposed to rest and do minimal activities or they will injure themselves or burn of the gains.
To be fair it is possible for an athlete to put on 10 lb of muscle naturally. Any athlete who has muscle doesn’t mean he juices.

But When you start to see someone’s jaw composition grow 👀 🚩

An advantage ? Do people not realize that cortisone is a steroid ? It may not be grouped in the same category, but it is a steroid.

LeBron 1000% has used some form of PEDs for a long time now. There’s no way you have the build of an NFL linebacker when playing 40 minutes a night. Anyone who thinks so is in denial.

Do you know how to properly use quotes? Or not just be a horribly negative presence in every single thread you choose to chime in on?

Hey, why don't you try delivering all that mail for nearly two decades.

On a related note: NBA network did a nice documentary/sit-down interview with him that broadcasted during the all star break.

After the recent news, Ben Taylor tweeted out that he is going to edit his video to include the Elixir (EPO)-



This video might also be edited soon to include EPO

Sure if you take everything I say seriously. Considering you're probably just some AI accountant bot without a sense of humor or the ability to pick up on sarcasm just yet I'll let it slide. Hang in there though, I'm sure there is an update for that just around the corner.

Based on the comparison pics above alluding to PED use... I guess weights just weigh more today?
