Steroids were not even banned during Thomas's time. ANd frankly, even if they were, to pretty much everyone not making cheap points, purposely throwing a game is a completely different level than taking performance enhancers. There is a huge difference when you are changing the game so that the result is fixed.
They were banned for essentially the entirety of Thomas' career. They probably had a bigger impact on the game than throwing games ever did.
