    This guy is sick

    Brandon tries to convince everybody that he has a competitive nature but he is just trying to ruin his career

    He trully needs a conversation with T-Mac to realize how bad it could be

    He couldn't realized that after playoffs series vs Suns but I hope that he would realize it now

    Don't know how it's gonna hurt a playoff chances for our Rox but it's gonna be a turning point for Blazers

    This could break their chemistry

    Management or the coach need to tell him to shut it down for the rest of the season. I'd hate for B Roy to be the next McGrady or Grant Hill :(

    If B-Roy has been cleared to play by the team Doctors..

    Then I see no reason not to, he could make Portland a dangerous team in the west..

    Even if he sat out, his knees would not improve. There's nothing he can do for them besides playing through the pain.

    Yeah, I'm sure the team doctors have no incentive to get him back on the court as quickly as possible, even if it jeopardizes his long-term health. Lol.

    Maybe it will be okay, but this is awfully quick.

    Besides, it's bad news for the Rockets grabbing the 8th slot.

    Is it really?

    I know Roy is no T-Mac, but I foresee some serious chemistry issues if he comes back, demands minutes and produces terribly. The team is actually doing OK without him, maybe it is better for the team if he sits...

    I wouldn't be surprised if this turns out to be a complete failure. Once he starts playing NBA games, I betcha his knees start hurting again in short order.

    Portland seems to be doing fine without him. Aldridge seems to be enjoying his new title as their star and Miller is playing well. Not sure how this will turn out for them. They had problems with him co-existing with Miller and Aldridge was always in his shadow. I think they had issues early on as well. That team sure has lots of ego which could be a good thing or even a disaster.

    brandom roy was playing like crap all season, this is actually good news for us, he would just ruin their chemistry, plus taking away the ball from LA whos been carrying the blazers.
    I liked a lot broy game, but as sad as it is, he is done already. He cant really play with those knees at the same lvl he was playing 2 years ago.

    I know, right? It's like every time Brandon Roy undergoes "major knee surgery" he's either out the rest of the season or back on the court in a matter of weeks

    And we all know how the last time turned out to be. Losing the series, no meniscus left, another major surgery..will he be without his ACL this time?

    He was such a good player, one of the best pace changing player I've ever seen..and now he can barely run.

    B. Roy says the Blazers have reeled in his desire to return this week and admits he will not play this weekend.
