BROY Appreciation thread

[emumm]

My first real post but I feel it is important so here goes. BROY needs some credit for his play since Oden went out, even if he couldn't adjust his play before hand. He is carrying this team right now and the blazers are doing better than most of us think.

I will post a statistical analysis detailing the of the top teams in the west when I can access my work computer next but here is something to think about in the mean time:

(top teams = lakers, dallas, San Antonio, phoenix, portland, utah, denver, NO, OKC, Houston, boston, cleavland, Atlanta, Orlando, Miami)

Denver: 19-9
VS top teams: 8-3
Home vs top teams: 6-0
Away vs top teams: 2-3
Home vs non top teams: 6-1
Away vs non top teams: 5-5
games vs top teams still to play: 33
games vs top teams at home: 16
games vs top teams away: 17

Portland: 17-12
VS top teams: 7-8
Home vs top teams: 4-3
Away vs top teams: 3-5
Home vs non top teams: 6-1
Away vs non top teams: 4-3
games vs top teams still to play: 27
games vs top teams at home: 14
games vs top teams away: 13

Given the blazers have 6 less games than denver against the other top 14 teams and portland is only 2 1/2 games back, are we that far off of our goal???

Either way, I say despite his slowness to adjust to new offensive weapons on the team (some of which are hurt now), broy deserves some appreciation for keeping us in the hunt.

I appreciate you BROY! Thanks for all you have done.

I'm diggin' the last year BRoy display yesterday. Keep it up!

I appreciate Brandon!

You are great as the focal point of the offense!

You really need to work at being a team player when the big guy comes back.

If we are going to be successful in the playoffs, you need to help your teammates succeed and stop trying to do it all yourself.

It would be nice if you could work a little harder on defense too.

It also doesn't look so good when you whine constantly for calls. Just play the game.

And Brandon, when you hold the ball to run down the clock at end of quarters, would you start making some(or more) of those shots.

He sucks.

/thread.

 

[B-Roy]

What happened to unpatriotic Roy? Or selfish Roy? Or Roy only cares about his own stats?

 

[blue32]

duh, that was last week!!! before the board took their pills!

 

[roydezlaw]

What happened to unpatriotic Roy? Or selfish Roy? Or Roy only cares about his own stats?

It's all or nothing? You can't complain about someones actions and not like or appreciate them?

Then, Brandon sucks!

Just kidding, Brandon.

Well, it doesn't necessarily have to be all or nothing, but I would say whining about someone being selfish, and not a good teammate would show you don't actually appreciate what he does.

If you say so.

The team is not going to get to the next level if Brandon stays the focal point of the offense. If he refuses to adapt to Oden or a new point guard in the lineup, you'll hear more of those comments again.

As long as he is the man, he'll look and play like a superstar on offense.

I want to see another championship more than I want to see Brandon putting up numbers.

And I do appreciate Brandon whether it meets your criteria or not.

his play the last 2 weeks prob get him into all star game

 

[Minstrel]

What happened to unpatriotic Roy? Or selfish Roy? Or Roy only cares about his own stats?

All still true. But in the absence of all these other players, we need an unpatriotic, selfish, I-want-mine Roy to light it up!

Brandon Roy, I appreciate you.

 

[yakbladder]

But what has he done TODAY?!?!??!

In all seriousness, keep it up Brandon. There's only a few guys left on the bench so it would help if you could raise your scoring average. By 40ppg.

Thanks for stepping up when it is sorely needed B-Roy.

And thanks for giving me some hope Portland can still make the playoffs this year.
