    He tested positive for tamoxifen, which I don't believe has anything to do with his hair. However, I know that it's a common after-steroid-cycle drug. LMFAO if Calathes was juicing...

    Be honest, none of yall even know who calathes is or even seen him play. Stop bagging on his athletic ability, or lack thereof.

    isn't juicing supposed to make you a beast athletically, which is the antithesis of calathes. Do you need me to spell it out for you?

    More like the stuff he was taking, probably contributed to his early hair loss. Some steroids have side effects that are physically notable.

    I wouldn't be surprised if most of the Miami Heat were doping. They move really fast for a team with old, injury ravaged veterans.

    the heat are the kings of doping, but they are never going to get suspended because the entire nba would collapse without lebron and wade.

    Um...I know who he is. I've seen him play. All 4 years at Florida, too.

    After watching him for 5 years, I can trust my eyes in saying that his game is not predicated on athletic ability, but rather limiting turnovers, hustling, and making smart plays.

    Is it okay for me to chime in or do I still not know who he is?

    I'm a Florida alum so I know plenty about Calathes. He was trash then, and he's trash now.
