NBA fans have had a busy couple of days digesting the news about Paul George being suspended for a number of games for using drugs. George accepted that he took drugs, but remarked that it was all for his mental health. However, he also admitted that he did not know that the medication he took was deemed ‘improper’ by the league.
Gilbert Arenas recently discussed Paul George’s situation on his podcast and stated that he very well knew that something was fishy since the 76ers star’s performance improved this campaign. However, his co-host, Rashad McCants, immediately retorted that the league should probably be testing LeBron James as well. Fans have been trolling that James’ performance has always been on point and that the legend is definitely not on drugs.
“Gilbert Arenas says We all seen it with Paul George one minute your’re doing regular layups, then all of a sudden you’re doing 360 dunks we knew you were on something. Rashad McCants jumps in: ‘Why ain’t they testing the 41-year-old that’s dunking like that as well’” chatn*gga101 tweeted, sharing a clip of Gilbert Arena’s discussion.

“N*gga a hater (laughing with tears emoji x2) Difference is Bron game is naturally like dat (person shrugging emoji)” one fan said.
“PG is only 35 these guys act like the age of 35 is equivalent to being 60 (laughing with tears emoji) Dude is 6’8 I can’t imagine being able to dunk at 35 being that hard when you’ve been doing it your entire life. It’s also wild to me how untouchable LeBron is they can’t even drop his name while talking about drug testing players (laughing with tears emoji)” one more fan added.
“Because he’s arguably the single most athletic person in NBA history, him and Wilt. What LeBron does is LeBron. But when you see mfs like Paul George doing it…obviously that’s some red flags.” Another fan explained.
NBA Fans Reason Why LeBron Is Never Tested
At the same time, NBA fans are also defending as to why LeBron James is never the one who is tested, despite the baller playing pretty well at his age. Many fans feel that James is someone who is needed a lot more than Paul George.
“I agree with Rashad. Lebron taking PEDS but he’s the ‘KING’ so no one questions him EVER,” one fan remarked.
“Ducked that lebron comment (laughing with tears emoji). Bro’s been balding for 23 years. Buddy def on that juice,” one fan called out Gilbert Arenas.
“They don’t test lebron. We all know that,” one fan said.
Nevertheless, Paul George will be missed for quite some time in the league as the hooper is suspended for more than 70 games right now. George is still sticking to his remarks that he took the meds for his mental health.
