    Why wouldn't they want these multi million dollar investments to heal better and faster under supervision. I don't have any problems with people like Paul George or Yoa Ming using this under strict supervision to get back. There should be exceptions in my opinion.

    Are there known medical dangers associated with HGH?

    Like any drug or form of treatment, yes if abused.

    Yes, everything grows - your heart, bones, intestines, etc - everything.

    Rashard Lewis was popped in Orlando and after he got off he was never the same.

    So theoretically, Cat could have been using HGH, which eventually caused him to retire early.

    So weird too. All he ever did was stand in a corner and shoot 3's. The most overpaid three point shooter of all time.

    When Derrick Rose said that the NBA has a serious problem do you think he was referring to his desperate need for HGH?

    Can it make your free throw percentage grow?

    Surprised no one replied to this post. This new rule will change absolutely nothing, as there are tons of drugs that can't be detected and are more effective. Performance drug business is billion dollars big, no testing agency will ever catch up with them. There's a reason why guys like Bolt, LeBron etc will never get caught and why so many world-class athletes get busted decades later, when new tests are on the market.

    Again, that's obviously angling and lighting.

    You can watch videos and other pictures, it's not because of angle.
