    Without that injury, imo, he would right now be the #1 SG in the NBA. Better than Ginobody in his prime. So frustrating for me as a fan.

    The dude should be the 6th man when Rubio sits,,,,like being Parker's Ginobody. And I'd also give him the ball in the 4th to close out games.

    During 09 Roy was the number 3 pg hands down in the league behind Kobe and Wade, he could've accomplished so much as a player, i cry everytime :(

    Wolves are making the playoffs with or without Rubio. They got rid of Beasley and actually have legit SGs and SFs now.

    He looks better then expected no doubt. The question is how long will his knees hold up. he has absolutely 0 cartilage.

    Agreed. Let him play 5 minutes a game to stay up-to-speed on offense until the playoffs. Then just use him as much as he can be productive.

    Poor guy is going to be on crutches by the age of 40.

    roy looked very smooth in a slow effective way

    good to see AK back and very excited for the Schved sighting

    and yes sad to see Princeton working well, wish the the rockets could find a coach to implement that :(

    Adelman's offense will make things easier for Roy.

    the man is pure class but you have to wonder if he will hold up.. part of me feels this sinking inevitability..

    Roy doesn't seem like a fit for that offense at all. His entire game used to be based off of dribbling off a pick.

    But then again his body isn't what it used to be either. Now he cant just curl for some open jumpers and cut for some open layups in RA's offense.

    so what exactly is wrong with his knees that he can play like that but not consistently?
