    That was my thought. A while back I saw a bit on NBA TV about last year's rookies. When they got to footage of the All Star Game, they had Andersen walking around with J.R. Smith, carrying a cup in his (Andersen's) hand. My first thought was "dip cup", but maybe it was some of that wicked ol' slurp...? Hm...

    Wouldn't be mar1juana; the penalties for pot are comparatively soft (see above).

    http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=syrup

    1. syrup:
    Promethazine with Codeine Cough Syrup, manufactured by Alpharma Inc. Each 5 mL tablespoon contains 6.25 mg promethazine hydrochloride and 10 mg codeine phosphate. Codeine is an opiate, a natural substance found in the opium poppy. However, it is rare and thus most medicinal codeine is created via the methylation of codeine (the addition of CH2). In Houston, Texas, it s a very popular beverage; the syrup is traditionally mixed in with soda and jolly ranchers.

    2. syrup:
    Look to all yall idiots out there, here is syrup. The purple cough medicine u get by perscription from ur doctor it has codeine in it. Just mix a duece, which is 2 oz. in a 12 oz. sprite, shake it and lean. Add a jolly rancher if u want. No alcohol that **** will kill u.

    Cough syrup with Codeine in it. It's a growing problem around Houston.

    You're from Houston and you don't know about the syrup? :eek:

    It's plain old cough syrup. Dimetapp, Robitussin, and all that other nasty tasting stuff. I'm going to pour out a bottle for my homey Birdman now :( BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

    I go to SHSU and Chris' step brother is a student there. Chris would often frequent the Jolly Fox in Huntsvegas and his step brother would invite me to go. I never took him up on the offer because he was always talking about how high they would get. I'm sure this fiasco isn't about the Mary Jane but I was just waiting for this kind of thing to catch up with him.

    He's making millions, you'd think he'd spring for something a little more expensive, that produces the same results.

    Not that coke cut in Oklahoma City can be any good ...

    If he was suspended for codeine, he's dumber than I thought.

    Crystal meth is 2-3 times as expensive as coke.

    This is the NBA drug policy. Has to be meth, guy jumped too high for a white guy to be taking downers. ;)

    According to the league's collective bargaining agreement, a player can only be disqualified for a fourth positive test for performance-enhancing drugs, or a first positive test for "drugs of abuse."

    The drugs on that list are amphetamine and its analogs, which include methamphetamine; cocaine; LSD; opiates, including heroin, codeine and morphine; and PCP

    This guy deserves to get slapped until either his brain is mysteriously fixed or he dies.

    I've managed to go through my entire life completely sober and this guy can't even manage it through the season? I just don't understand why these guys can't stick to alcohol. And honestly, he could probably even get away with pain pills because athletes are constantly prescribed those things. This guy must have a serious problem, and I hope he gets it corrected in the next two years. If he's lucky some team will take him on in two years. He is still young. I feel for this guys family and friends. There went their free ride.
