So he didn't name the medicine, and I haven't seen this move used before by anybody.

It may have been used, but one of the things that I found interesting about it, never mind the optics or the PR about it, what an amazing shift in that league and the way that league works.

armors up on masculinity for Paul George to say openly, I'm not a cheater, I just need help with mental frailty.

I need help with mental illness.

What a seismic change in how it is men present as men in that league

that the second one is no longer a stigma, at least in part because of what DeMar DeRozan and Kevin Love did.

This stuff was never talked about before, where I'm sure he garners at least some sympathy in some corners.

I don't think everyone is saying what we are,

There's nothing you can say that I will believe if the NBA gets you gone for 25 games.

I think many people are saying, well, maybe, even though it seems fundamentally implausible because of what Zazz is saying.

And the reason it seems fundamentally implausible is Paul George just cost himself $12 million.

When the risk is that high, what Zaz is saying is so.

You take your medication to your team doctors and you say, is this okay for me to use?

And that's how you ingest things.

But it's really a seismic shift in everything happening in that league.

that Paul George is willing to do the double of, no, I'm not cheating, I have that shame, but I'm going to tell all my fellow players in this league something that 10 years ago, none of these guys would have admitted to because nobody in that league wants to admit that they need help.

Yeah, Paul, you were looking for a mark.

I'm your mark.

I'm an empath.

I did not believe him, though.
