Simple rule of thumb: the really great players would trade individual honors for a championship ring. Roy is a classy, hard-working guy, so it is nice that he is getting recognition. I doubt that Roy himself sees it as more than a consolation prize.
so kind words were offered to Brandon from an anonymous poster on an obscure website so that people in the Blazer organization might read it and what??? feel something that they didn't already feel seeing him honored? Yeah, nothing at all odd about that. topical = context of the thread. And as I already had to point out to you, this was a topical joke as Travis had somehow received an All-NBA D vote. Sorry that you didn't get the joke the first time, but the smiley with it's tongue out should have tipped you off. Keep an eye out for that sort of stuff. hopefully you lighten up you dolt STOMP
I'd imagine he's pleased that his outstanding season was recognized and has hopes that the award will translate into some calls next year in the playoffs. From officiating to teammates, much of whats necessary for an individual to win a championship is outside of their control. STOMP
Ouch. Roy was the only player on the second team not to get a single first place vote. Still, a great accomplishment--and the best is yet to come!
He shouldn't have received a first place vote over Bryant, Wade, or Paul. If he had received one over any of them, I would have questioned the person who cast that vote.
