Sportando: Stanton Kidd expected to sign with the Jazz

There is no physical addiction to weed. Its no more addictive than eating carrots.

My brother was diagnosed with marijuana use disorder, one of the symptoms being addiction, and withdrawals after abstaining for a time, irritability, mood and sleeping problems.

So there is addiction with weed. It’s less likely, but you can become addicted

Tony Jones said this is a little premature... my guess is it will be a two way though. Last year I thought Eric Griffin wouldn't accept a two way and he did. He will get some decent guaranteed money and a chance to make the league. Just my guess though.

They know oversea’s deals will be waiting for them if their nba dreams don’t pan out, so of course they will sign a 2 way deal if that’s the route they need the take to get to the nba.

Well anything that you enjoy is addicting. Video games are addicting, watching sports is addicting, fishing (for me is addicting), skiiing, playing sports, etc etc. Its all mentally addicting.

I smoked weed everyday all day for like 10 years straight and then i applied for a job that was a huge pay upgrade and they drug test. I quit 17 days before the drug test (was very worried i would fail) and that was that. No more pot for me. I miss/missed it but its not like I got sick or was in pain and convulsing on the ground. Hell, I had way more physical withdrawal symptoms from quitting cigarrettes. Not even close. Many many others had the same experience quitting. Your brother is an exception and possibly has some other issue that caused him to experience withdrawal symptoms.
 
Former NFL QB Jake Plummer would disagree. He went on record as saying it is the only thing that gives him pain relief.
Montel williams has MS and he said that marijuana is the best pain relief he ever used. And he tried lots of prescription meds first.
 
Ya, that’s false. It’s rare but does happen to some.

Exactly. The problem with weed is the propaganda that we've been bombarded with about it for the last 80 years. Recently, I've been learning about medical marijuana and though I was a regular toker when I was young and never experienced any physical addiction, I bought into it. Our society has been brainwashed about it, and it's time we stopped the nonsense and realize it is a very useful drug that is good for all kinds of ailments -- of course, Big Pharma wants people to take opoids and they don't care how many people die because of what is a very real and serious addiction. But as some here have mentioned, it does mess with your coordination, so I don't think it would be a PED for basketball players.

Physical addiction to Weed is very real, it’s rare but a thing for sure
