Are you ready for the NBA to start HGH Testing?

Quote:
Sources say the NBA is due to start testing players for human growth hormone (HGH), which represents several important firsts for the league's anti-doping policy (ESPN)

"The issue isn't whether I think it should be used," Cuban told USA TODAY Sports via e-mail. "The issue is that it has not been approved for such use. (Mark Cuban)

I'd like to know. It might mess some things up short term but long term it would be better for the league.

Wonder how many will be suspended in the first bunch of tests. Usually when new testings are introduced, the first wave of tests usually catch more than any following ones.

Re: Are you ready for the NBA to start HGH Testing?

Two questions :

Is the HGH known to increase the injurys numbers ? Or is it knwon to weaken the human muscles and bones ? (Don't know how to word that properly)

What happens if they test a big time player like a Lebron, a Durant and he's positive, are they really gonna do anything about it and reveal it to the public ?

^Another question to add to that...Will the testings be random or what? Cause I know in MLB, they claim it's random testings, but some players have admitted they were tested a suspiciously high amount of times while others weren't even tested at all.

Shard got caught and he lost all his game after it.

Turk did too but his situation was different... he was unaware, but both were suspended a long time.
