For violating the anti-drug policy. (And it's not the drug you're thinking of.)

That excuse is getting so [dang] OLD!!!!11!!!

Oh i was at the store/resturant/moms house/the bank and i accidentaly bought/took/was forcefed/eat a BigMac and thats how i just tested positive for a muscle building steriod.

I take full responsibility for my actions (even though as i clearly stated above, it wasnt directly my fault) and sit out 10games while no one cares.

Who on this board, has EVER gotten steroids by accident? 10Games dosnt have an effect, it dosnt make the fans care in the slightest. It should be a full season BAN for testing positive for a preformance enhancing drug, the league is WAY to lax on this.

Is this the same drug that got Rashard Lewis suspended for 10 games? O.J.'s excuse sounds the same as Rashard's from what I remember.

Might as well...TA already punched him out. What an underachiever...OJ has crazy talent, yet keeps wasting it.

That's all well and good except he didn't test positive for a steroid, he tested positive for a steroid precursor that is completely legal in America but banned by the NBA.  It's entirely possible that he got it from an over-the-counter workout supplement, especially when you look at the track record of supplement makers. 

It's also possible he was doing something sketchy and got caught, but the supplement market's almost totally unregulated and things like this do happen.

The fact that it is legal makes me believe that it could be in a supplement and he could be telling the truth. But with that said how the heck do you not look at the label when you're a player and in a league that you know is strict with what they call enhancement drugs?

Even if he is telling the truth this was a lack of judgment on his part. Knowing the rules he should have read the label and found something else that was legal by USA and NBA. This is similar to the situation with Spikes and the Patriots, seems like an honest mistake but still kind of dumb considering who they work for.

DHEA is only a prohormone. I thought they were legal in the U.S. It doesn't come close to the real deal, testosterone enanthate, which is a banned substance.

Given how easy going the NBA's drug testing policy is, I don't think we should give anyone the benefit of the doubt if they're caught.

I'm sure a very large percentage of players are using some sort of PEDs.

I like the kid, he's got monster skills, and I wish the Celtics or any other team not named Lakers can get him.

Please, Wallace, don't trade with the Lakers  :-\


That said, I believe he needs some serious advice and a better team to make the most out of his skills
