Tracy McGrady had a run of several seasons in which he was one of the NBA's best players that was eventually slowed down by injuries.

"I didn't believe I was going to get there naturally," said McGrady about returning to his pre-injury form.

"I actually considered getting an advantage and whatever that was, doing it illegally, I considered that," said McGrady about using performance enhancing drugs.

McGrady talked about how common it is in baseball to stay healthy.

"I never crossed that line because I read up on it and seen the side effects that could happen."
