    So the breaking news is that Brandon Roy agreed to a deal? Didn't we learn that yesterday?

    Well none of this is really breaking news because the majority of us knew it was a formality anyway.

    I think it holds the record for most posts ever in a thread over at BBF

    A formality that took a month.


    Most knew it would get done, but some just wondered why in the hell it could take a month to give Roy exactly what he wanted. Which is what they did

    Much like me doing my taxes. I know I'll get them done before the deadline, sometimes I do it a few weeks after I get all my info, sometimes it takes me a few months. The most important thing, is I know it's going to get done before it matters.

    the way i always understood it was mgmt wanted 4 year max, roy wanted 4 year with player option on yr 5, and it seems the middle ground has been 5 years guaranteed.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    If the fifth year isn't a player option, it wasn't exactly what he wanted.

    I know, Trader Bob would have just given Roy a blank check and called it a day.
