OT: The side of LeBron's face

[44Thrilla]

Has anybody else noticed how LeBron seems to have a big lump on the right side of his face? Somebody mentioned it to me recently, saying they saw it early on in the season and it seems to be growing with time. I watched a few videos looking for it and I can see that there definitely seems to be something going on there.

Check out this video, you can see it pretty clearly, I think.

Anybody know what's up with that?

Hmm...

 

[Rastapopoulos]

I guess I do see what you mean - under his right ear, sort of behind the beard line. Or are you just trying to fuck with us and get us to peer closely at our computer screens?

Another thing I notice - why he (like Paul Pierce) wears his headband the way he does. Talk about fast-receding hairline.

Steroids and HGH will tend to have that effect.

It wouldn't take much to make me believe he's on some sort of juice.

This is pretty much what I was getting at.

Hmm, I just googled Paul Pierce for pics of him without his headband on (because I've never noticed) and it doesn't look like his hairline is receding. Not sure if I'm seeing old pics, but it looks about normal to me.

Ego? That does seem suspicious though b/c it's really obvious once someone points out the lump. Never noticed it b4

 

[DaRizzle]

NBA drug policy is a joke...Fuck him if he is cheating with steroids or HGH...i would be livid

 

[Mamba]

The kid is on HGH. I think it is pretty obvious.

 

[SodaPopinski]

Lebron was pretty silly ripped in high school too. I'm not sure it's obvious he's on anything, unless you think he started taking something in high school.

Rookie:

Now:

I guess it's not that dramatic, but I remember being shocked when I saw his headband knocked off in a game.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

So - was Ernie Johnson on HCH?

Yeah, I see it now. It must be harder to notice stuff like that when you watch a player night in and night out his entire career. Sucks for them that the whole Jordan shaved head look isn't as popular as it used to be.

 

[KingSpeed]

exactly

 

[44Thrilla]

exactly

No, not exactly. We don't know for sure what that is on LeBron's face. HGH is known to cause abnormal bone and cartilage growth.

 

[rocketeer]

This is pretty much what I was getting at.

lebron has a lump of the side of his face so he's probably been doing hgh isn't really the best argument.

You're right, how ridiculous of me. Plenty of people have huge bumps growing out of their face for no apparent reason. I have been owned by rocketeer!

you not knowing the reason doesn't mean that there isn't a reason.

and you assuming the reason is hgh is ridiculous.

and when exactly did i say anything about anyone being owned?

Lebron 10 years down the road:

As would I. If the guy has built his fame and glory on drugs, it would be a total disgrace.

I never said he is definitely using HGH, feel free to find a post of mine where I say that. I do, however, think it's appropriate to discuss the possibility, and until I hear what the hell that bump is I will continue to be skeptical of it.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Dwyane Wade's jaw is pretty bulbous too, it occurs to me.

 

[BlazerWookee]

I've seen tweekers with that bump, it's a squinting sort of reflex that occurs during the initial chemical burn when they snort a line.
