    Because they saw the impact it had on the other leagues when the whistle was finally blown. Instead, they enjoy the dollars coming in hand over fist while their players run faster, jump higher, and dunk harder.

    Dude that's all lighting and angles. The first pic you there is literally a shadow over his jaw, the second pic the light is shining directly on it.

    The light is on his forehead in both pictures. The huge ass jaw just sticks out to also get light in the second picture while in the first doesn't stick out and is in the shadow of his cheek.


    I don't take this as any proof at all he did roids, but his jaw is way bigger.

    Fair enough.....I was not going to spend all day breaking down lighting/angles/etc to find two comprable photos of DWade. Just wanted to put something out there where he is looking in a similar direction to prove that his head has grown...

    Not talking jaw lines, etc like others either. I am talking GROWN.....like to Bonds-like proportions!!

    There is still dark shadows across his Jaw in the first pic, the second there is none. The first photo is taken from a higher angle then the second, also making his jaw look smaller. Just saying, also have no idea if he's on roids or not, I just know how angles and lighting can completely change the perception of the jaw.

    The shadow across his neck is the same. The lack of shadow in the second pic is because his jaw has ballooned. Probably why he grew an instant jawline beard.

    This, again?

    Maybe he is using and maybe he isn't..but his appearance is not necessarily a sign of it. His muscles aren't that big, it's just an illusion caused having a good build and low body fat.

    Pictures from the same day:

    There's not a lot of size to his muscles, when you see him from a different angle. Getting in better shape, including lower body fat and improving posture goes a long way to making you look more intimidating physically, while not necessarily requiring a lot of muscle gain.

    As for his jaw, are we going to pretend we don't see other people's jaws widen as they get older? It could be genetic, it could be tension buildup that's causing jaw muscles to tighten up. I know bone can change to adapt to a load, so I would think a jaw could react similarly, if you chew a lot of meat. There's just not enough there to point to drugs.

    ^^^good lord you clown. Not everyone takes HGH for bodybuilding purposes and muscle mass. Did lance Armstrong look like Hercules with all his doping and testosterone?? Was Roger Clemens modeling for a and Fitch?? Wade uses it for recovery and regeneration , not to win Mr. Olympus. That much is known from a variety of factors, least of them being muscle size. I never once said lebron dopes despite being the most athletic guy on the NBA.

    Woah woah woah!!!



    Wade has a pretty raging outie, mods, make this photo of Wades outie into a new thread, we must discuss. We all know outie's are the number one sign of crack cocaine addiction.

    Did i ever say that was the only reason people take HGH? No, I didnt. I was addressing what OTHERS are saying about his appearance, specifically his jaw and muscles, being signs of use. I never said he can't possible be using because his jaw and muscle size can be explained by other factors. In fact, i started off by writing he could still be using or not.

    Reading comprehension, Bozo.

    One way of determining if someone is taking steroids is to look at the size of someone's neck. A larger neck size, especially one as wide as the base of the head is generally an indicator that someone is taking steroids.

    The reason for that is because steroids make all the muscles in a person's body get larger. While someone can go to the gym and work on most of the muscles in the body, people generally do not lift weights to the same extent that work the neck muscles as they do the chest, biceps or quads.

    I remember looking at a picture a couple of years ago of Wade, and his neck was really wide. I said to myself at the time that he had to have been taking steroids. I do not think he is taking steroids now because the size of his neck has shrunk, but he definitely was definitely taking steroids in the past.

    Good to see all the comments on what HGH and anabolic steroid use does to the human body from folks who know jack **** about the subject. Carry on.

    Victor Conte has an account among us. I personal would consider the clear along with SERMS to counter side effects.

    It's just the Fat Elvis effect. If you at his arms in the college pic, he has thick arms which is a gift that no amount of working out can give you without steroids. Tell him to lay off the banana peanut butter sandwiches. If he was on HGH he wouldn't so broken down either.
