Check this out Denny. This is what I'm talking about.
Hopefully this works.

What browser are you using? I don't see it:

every time i log in here it says that i have been fined five credits for a violation of the verbal morality code, what exactly is up with that

I totally agree, but do you really want to say "if used correctly I think he could help us" about a guy with an $82 million contract? It's tough. I love B-Roy, and if his knees were right he's worth every bit of that money. But it takes up almost 1/4 of our cap space, and if the production isn't on that level than how can we compete? It sucks. Not many guys are a shell of themselves at 27.

Oh dear fucking god. Will this never end?

If the question is "Going forward can we get a better backup SG than Roy", the answer is of course we can.

Who?

 

[KingSpeed]

Crash was sensational in Game 6 and if he hadn't gotten hurt, we probably would've won that game.

IE7

IE kinda sucks balls. You ever try Firefox or Chrome?

I am so over this Roy lovefest. I appreciate what he's done for the franchise, but the franchise has done a helluvalot more for him.

Amnesty and move on.

i am over people who are over lovefests. what could be wrong with a lovefest? a festival of love? only the coldest souls could resist their warm and gentle glow

I've used IE7 to view the site and never seen this issue. It's probably something he has installed or spyware that's messing him up. He really should use Chrome - it's blazingly fast. And IE8 has been out a long time (for XP) and IE9 for Windows 7.

Company laptop. The software is company issued.

Can you install it?

 

[tlongII]

I will check at work to see if it's okay first.

That works in IE.

It replaces Microsoft's rendering engine with the one from Chrome.

 

[Blazinaway]

Who?

Nic Batum and guess what, he's already in the roster

 

[Mediocre Man]

Yes, Roy hurt us

I noticed one thing when watching Chris Johnson highlights (all 4 of them). On both of those big blocks he had against Dallas (the one on Dirk and the one on JJ Barea), the whole team started running for the fast break immediately except for Roy.

Check it:


The two blocks are at the end of this specific highlight reel but the video is good so whatever. Sure, maybe Roy was told to take it easy or he was out of position. Either way, if he can't even run full bore like Wallace, Batum, Felton, and Aldridge, are all going to be, I want him outta here imo. Something to look for I suppose.

 

[blazedanugz]

he had 16 in game 3....in about 22 minutes... did you guys not watch the game???

Are we just ignoring his 9-21 in the 4 losses?

 

[3RA1N1AC]

9-21 is a decent shooting percentage

 

[Mediocre Man]

Sorry, fuzzy math 7-21

1-7
0-1
2-7
4-6

I refuse to think that the games we lost; which Roy only averaged 10 minutes a game; he was the reason we lost them. Roy has 2 seasons left in him. I suspect after that; he will be worse than what we saw from last season. My dream scenario would be... Roy plays 1 season and does very well. The Blazers win the title and he wins MVP. Roy realizes how much toll it put on his knees and asks for a medical retirement. He is quoted "I just don't see myself playing for any city other than Portland; which is why I am retiring." Then the Blazers offer him an assistant coach job and we live happily ever after. The End.

2 seasons at what level? he was mediocre last year when he played and has no D at all

This season, I expect at a much higher level than last season. Not the Roy of old, but pretty damn close. Then the season after that he will be diminished, but still effective. After that, I would be surprised if he coudl average 15 minutes a game.

IMO that is way overly optimistic, if he stays I expect he looks solid to maybe even good for 2-3 weeks then the gradation of the knees begins and gets worse and worse, likely worse than last year. There is no reason to expect it to be different then that as there is NO cartilage there and it's simply a wearing and worsening process. Sorry but that's the common sense outlook.

You realize who you're responding to, right? For Mags, this is pretty standard optimism. That is his role here, and he fills it well.
