Tremont waters is wilding as hell for saying he didn’t keep himself in shape with the Celtics
A sub 6 footer who was a 2nd round pick
Not even in your second contract
And you decide you don’t wanna be in shape

You watch baseball? All kinda scrubs were going off during the steroid era
ive had these arguments a long time ago when I was a much more intense baseball follower,
so its been a while since I researched this
but if you look into it, there are plenty of contextual factors about the rise of power in the 90's and 2000's that just simply can't be explained by just steroids.
a factor? sure, but again it's not like they were magic beans.
There is evidence that MLB made changes to the ball in 94.
steroid being the culprit doesn't make sense,
unless you think the players all decided to start doing steroids at the exact same time.
I think changes to the ball more reasonable explanation for a one time spike like that
this ringer post is a solid break down of the various factors surrounding the rise in power in the 90's
How Much of a Role Did Steroids Play in the Steroid Era?
Twenty years after McGwire and Sosa’s home run chase, it’s clear that other factors contributed to the power surge of ’98—some possibly more than PEDs did

it's more complicated than people think.

Isn’t baseball messing with the balls too? They own Rawlings

But to your point I could see how a rash of use for a particular time period could happen
Word spreads like wildfire that a clubhouse got some good stuff and then all of a sudden it’s common place

literally all concentrated in one off season? and no other spikes after that?
I don't find that plausible at all
that would take an intensely coordinated action, not like a word of mouth spread.

Why only one off-season?
Not versed in the roid game at all but was there also some kind of improvements to them during that period (90’s-2000’s)?
