What is more realistic? That he has or has not?
The only reason this guy hasn't shaved in over decade is to hide his ridiculous jawline and chin than can be compared to Barry Bonds from youth to old age.
The man uses PEDs ..... let's start to face reality.
Too many coincidences. Where there's smoke there's fire.
I can accept 1 coincidence. I can't accept 10.
I dont give a shit, it will never be proven and even if it ever was, I still wouldn't give a shit.
But anyone who believes that any athletes at the top level haven't used something at some point, or more than likely, are regularly using, is a total fool.
But I repeat, who cares? I want athletes at their best, more often and for longer so PEDs are essential for that. Plus they'll do it anyway whatever we or anyone else says or thinks. If you don't take it, you won't make it.
He was freakishly strong as a freshmen in highschool. so you're telling me he was juicing since middle school too? make it make sense.
You are proving just how great you think he is truly deep down in ur heart. The layer your conscious mind cant reach. You think he's so good it has to be cheating. No way some can be this good for this long without cheating
More juice than Tropicana. Would make Barry Bonds blush. :lol
I don't have a problem with athletes making their bodies as strong as possible, just stop calling offensive fouls as defensive fouls.

Lebron was a Nepo baby in the American AAU farm basketball system. He was basically handed 100 million dollars by 16 years old. If you don't think his handlers and investors were pumping him up to be as big a Frankenstein as he could be youre beyond naive. Way too money on the line. Billionaire brand since a young teenager.
He did have that tumor in his jaw that's associated with HGH. Then, there's the premature hairloss. Also, Randy Mims (one of LeBron's top guys; LRMR Marketing) picking up an order for "LJ" @ the Biogenesis clinic.
EDIT: It wasn't Randy, it was a "Mr. Paul." Hmmmmm, I wonder who that could be?
[QUOTE]Now while Bosch’s named hasn’t been linked with any athletes recently, according to a story from IBN Sports Wrap, some new names may be coming soon. In an interview conducted by one of IBN’s writers, who goes by “Incarcerated Bob” spoke with a women named Jessica who was a former employee of Bosch from April of 2010 to February of 2012. Jessica worked as an assistant for Bosch and kept track of “pretty much” every financial transfer that took place at Bosch’s clinic.
While keeping track of these financial transfers, Jessica, told Incarcerated Bob some of the initials that stood out to her. One of those initials, “LJ” she claimed to believe was Miami Heat forward and NBA Superstar, LeBron James.
Jessica said that a man who went by the name of Mr. Paul came in every month, once a month to pick up products for the initials “LJ.” As for what those products were, Jessica doesn’t know. However, she did say that Mr. Paul, the person who picked up the products for “LJ” was a friend of James’s.
Coincidentally enough, James’s agent and best friend’s name is Rich Paul. Now if it’s the same Mr. Paul or not, that wasn’t confirmed. However, Jessica said some of her coworkers were 100% sure that Lebron James was a client of the instute and was the “LJ.”[/QUOTE]
DOUBLE EDIT: Actually, Randy Mims was getting PEDs in his own name. Smart thinking; always put it on someone else's name.
[QUOTE]Mims, 47, is well-known as a key member of James' inner circle and is described in the investigative documents as the "manager of LeBron James (Miami Heat basketball player)." Mims has held several business roles for the superstar, as well as positions with the Cleveland Cavaliers and Los Angeles Lakers. A 2019 ESPN+ documentary series, "More Than an Athlete," portrayed Mims as a thoughtful, egoless worker who ensured everything runs on time.
Mims' purchases of testosterone -- a Schedule III controlled substance -- and metabolism-boosting injections and a blood draw by an unlicensed phlebotomist provided by Acevedo are described in federal documents as being done for his personal use. Acevedo told authorities Mims paid him $300 a purchase and remained a client for about two months before he stopped making buys after complaining about how the drugs made him feel.[/QUOTE]

hard agree, like with trump for example. women accusing him of sexual assault, Elon Musk, a man once in his inner circle claiming he's on the epstein list, then trump walking in on underage girls dressing for a pageant. too many coincidences.

Those are called accusations. Claims and accusations don't constitute as evidence.
Those women didn't accuse Trump of anything until he decided to run for president. When multiple women all decide to come out and air their grievances at the exact same time after decades of staying quiet, we call that an improbable chain of coincidences.
I'm not surprised you're a LeBron fan. It's very evident in your intelligence and in your character.

Frankly I don't think it's a very relevant debate. I mean, did steroids cause his 40+ post-season choke jobs? Did steroids make him be the most anti-clutch superstar ever and earn the nickname "LeShrivel"? Do steroids make him always disappear in 4th quarters?
Would it shock me if somewhere down the road it comes out he did PEDs at some point in his career? No.
Is there any proof, evidence supporting accusations? No.
Innocent until proven guilty.
It wouldn't surprise me in the least and at the same time it wouldn't make me view him any differently. I'm of the belief that most elite athletes we've ever seen took something. Maybe it wasn't illegal in the 70s, or even the 90s but it is now. How can you even begiin to justify judgment and morality in this scenario. That said there's as much evidence for Lebron to be on something as any Uber athlete we've ever seen. And as stated by other posters, who else have we ever seen show the level of athletic ability high school Lebron had? Its a major reason he had the hype and expectations he did coming in. I guess his career has lasted long enough for old farts to forget the beginning of the story.
Yes, he's doping. Yes, he's a freak athlete. Yes, he is extremely disciplined in his workouts and diet.
How much each of these factors contribute to him still playing at a high level in his 40s is very difficult to determine but I assure you if it were just as easy as taking steroids and remaining elite post 40 we'd see a lot more guys with his longevity. But the reality is we don't. And we've never seen it before.
And it would be beyond indescribably naive to believe he's the first and only doper in the history of the league. I don't think any of his detractors actually believe that. They just like to focus on the doping because it makes them feel in control of understanding why he's as good as he is into his 40s.
How many of you that think he is on steroids believe he is the only doper in the history of the league? And once you admit that he's not the only one, where are the rest of them being elite at 40? Give it a rest.
