Lots of red flags first of all he lied about his height his camp said he was 6'10 dude turned out to be 6'7. Secondly totally brain dead and arrogant af interview answers "I got no weaknesses" "Those are bad shots for you but not for me" Third already has delusions of grandeur even as a rookie, dude had the gall to be pissed getting taken in the top 5 lol wtf. Seems like he is getting horrible advice from his camp and when a dude feels like he is entitled to something its hard to imagine him putting in the work to get better. Gonna be ironic if Walter Clayton ends up having a better career than him.
Says the goof who was riding both their Ds non stop for 2 years. Bunch of gems from you and the rest of the fan club in this legendary thread. https://bbs.clutchfans.net/threads/james-hardens-philadelphia-76ers.314751/
“Over the past few years, I’ve discussed the importance of mental health, and in the course of recently seeking treatment for an issue of my own, I made the mistake of taking an improper medication. I take full responsibility for my actions and apologize to the Sixers organization, my teammates and the Philly fans for my poor decision making during this process. “I am focused on using this time to make sure that my mind and body are in the best condition to help the team when I return.”
What the **** is he taking? Shrooms for depression? (works, can confirm, good ****) I genuinely just assumed coke or something when the headline popped up on my NBA app
Yeah, now I'm really curious what it was. As an aside, I haven't taken any in a while, but I've never thought about shrooms showing up on a drug test. No idea how long it's in your system or what they'd test for (metabolites of some sort I guess?) or why they'd give a s!!t in the first place.
ESPN's Bobby Marks reports that Philadelphia will save more than $5 million in luxury tax payments as part of George's suspension, which leaves the team a little over $1 million over the NBA's luxury tax line and makes it easier for the 76ers to dip out of the tax this week without harming the roster. Spoiler
if players are prescribed this is it still an issue with the league? if it falls under the ADA (ADHD sometimes does from what i recall) legally they can't right? it was probably something way worse
Nah ketamine abuse is rife where I live, you wouldn't be able to be a pro athlete if you were abusing that long term. He'd be "P-ing his own shorts on the court with a bladder the size of a P" going forward lol. Aderall is more adhd and like speed/coke than something you'd take for depression or mental health problems.
Psilocin is fairly traceable I believe, though yeah I've never even seen it or any other shroom/tryptamine compound on the list of chemicals they test for in most workplaces. It's why I honestly thought it'd be coke before they said about the mental health angle. (Not sure anybody would be taking any kind of stimulant really if they were suffering from like anxiety or depression, kind of works against you.)
