    I do think people are massively overreacting. Roy is still a very good player. The news from my perspective does completely ensure that 1. He will never reach the Kobe/Wade level of ability and 2. The Blazers are not contenders. But there's no reason he can't be really good. He is still undisputably the #2 SG in the West.

    Aside from Kobe, what SG in the West is superior to Roy?

    Maybe he's contesting point #2, that the blazers aren't contenders.

    No doctor should be okay with removing the meniscus in an NBA guard. Period.

    Here's the cited article. I'm shocked. Weird condition, and I would've though they'd reconstruct them. Thanks.

    On the bright side, we now have the 2nd best SG in the west?

    i didnt realize he's had 4 surgeries, 2 on each knee....something has to be wrong with his legs, that's too many at his age...i wonder if he's been given a close evaluation?

    Will he take the risk of being the next mcgrady by doing a surgery

    or will he just decline till he cant possibly play anymore

    The thing is, there is no surgery to be done.
