Roy's contract (1 Viewer)

[MARIS61]

Eerily similar to Zach's contract back when Roy demanded we trade him.

Zach is still rockin' while Roy is barely walking.

Now it's obvious to anyone had we traded Roy instead we'd have an offensive juggernaut in the front court and a pre-injury Roy-caliber player too, like Chris Paul maybe.

Great that Roy has so much power that he makes decisions on personnel and playing time.

Blame it on PA/Vulcan.

When a rookie tells management to fire the team's best player, management should fire the rookie.

 

[XXPrimusXX]

Haha. Nice joke thread.

Wait...

When a rookie tells management to fire the team's best player, management should fire the rookie.

The Knicks, the Clippers, and now Memphis may beg to differ...

Roy calling out Zach was one of the best things that has happened to this franchise in the past 10 years. It pretty much ended the jailblazers era. Just because his knees are giving out, and Zach's (surprisingly) aren't doesn't change that. Roy is still a class act and Zach is a thug. Their injury statuses have surprisingly flip-flopped, but who would have known at the time? Are we seriously having threads about trading the wrong guy?

 

[KingSpeed]

You guys act like the guy is dead. He had 20-5-5 tonight, including three successful drives and got to the line for 9 free throws. He's still better than most shooting guards in the league.

My problem with Roy is not his talent! Clearly over the years he shown he has it! However his knees and his new contract make it very hard for the Blazers to improve with additional talent if he can't produce to the level he's paid to do!

 

[Mediocre Man]

Maybe Patty will demand Roy be traded.

Logic fail in the original post.

Except Roy never called Zach out. He knifed him in the back while pretending to be his friend and teammate. Class act? Hardly.

That's what I thought. Another MARIS post with nothing substantial to back it up.

 

[BlazerBeav]

fixed.

Oh, my mistake, the Blazers were competitive with Zach as their best player? Guess I was confusing that team with one that got in the lottery to draft Roy.

 

[MickZagger]

Maybe Patty will demand Roy be traded.

...and just maybe Paul Allen will honor his request.

You shouldn't shit on terrible logic using filthy facts.

It's just not polite.

Since he played on that team with Rasheed Wallace, has Zbo even sniffed the playoffs? It's not like he has had a record of success. Unless you consider Sergio Rodriguez success....

Well documented in all media outlets when it happened, and discussed thoroughly on all Blazers message boards. I've got better things to do than waste my time educating you on the basic history of a team you claim to be a fan of.

Try Google. Maybe someone here will show you how.

It isn't other people's responsibility to verify the obviously false statements you continually make. When you get called out on something stupid you say, be prepared to back it up. You clearly can't back this one up.

Provide a link.

Like I said it's a well known fact and you are showing your ignorance by throwing a tantrum about it. Look it up or let it go, either way means nothing to me.

That's okay, Roy was the best player on the team that got us the lottery pick we wasted on Oden.

That makes Zach's contribution to the Blazers far greater than Roy's when he was here, AND in his departure.

That's pretty lazy of you.

We all know the chronically-weak teams he's been carrying on his shoulders.

Had they received Roy rather than Zach, they all would have done even worse.

Actually, Zach was the best player on that team, at least statistically.

A well known fact just like Sergio is a good player?

Provide a link or GTFO.

It's my thread, genius.

I accept your apology for ignorance.

 

[MARIS61]

I really didn't want to make you look stupid but since you won't let it go and now you're tossing personal insults, I'll do your homework just like that cute girl in your 7th grade math class does for you.

Last year at the AllStar game, Roy again pulled out the nice-guy face.

Learn the basics about the team. Then post.

And in the future remember I'm ALWAYS right and I NEVER lie.
