It happens. I'm sure he's not the only one, he's just the one that was caught. Sucks, but it happens...

Something tells me that 'Testosterone Supplements' isn't the a) worst drug and b) most common drug used by NBA players.

And if this was a baseball player of Lewis' caliber (ie. a pretty big name on a team that just made the Finals), this would consume every hour of sports talk radio and SportsCenter today...but I bet it barely gets 10 minutes of coverage. Still can't understand why baseball drug issues get amplified 10X more than any other sports'.

Oh yeah, I completely agree with you on that. The Red Sox titles are "tainted" because they had Ramirez and David Ortiz, yet no one says the same thing about the New England Patriots.
