    since we physically can't sign him, no big deal...though seeing him on the L*kers, H*at or Celtics would have me root against his every successful moment

    Roy will play about every 4th game. He will drive them crazy. Adelman will see his game plan destroyed more often than naught. Kahn won't know whether to build around SF or acquire a major new one. This is our revenge, not his. It's why I'm hoping Roy goes to a real rival of ours, to help us in the standings.

    Don't want him on the Clippers...... can't stand those guys. Hope he plays well for the Wolves.

    I find your conservative world views very homophobic, meaning you would want to do the guy in the Avatar (comedian jim norton). :MARIS61:

    Apropos of nothing, Roy Kahn used to be the lead singer of my favorite cheesedick power metal band, Kamelot.

    You know, I really don't like how we aren't able to sign him again until next year. Doesn't seem fair in the grand scheme of things. Sure we get capspace by amnestying him, but we would not have done that if he were medically ABLE to play. A better option would have been to add a clause for restructuring a player's contract if he is unable to produce at the level he was before, rather than simply wiping his contract clean off the books.

    (And tbh, it's not really that clean because PA is still paying him his contract after amnestying him).

    Apparently I'm the only other O&A fan here. Little Jimmy Norton is fantastic.

    Tough to think he'll be able to hold up for a full season, but maybe he can reinvent himself in a new 20+ minutes per night role?

    Best of luck to Brandon.

    Really? I loved having Brandon Roy on the Blazers. What didn't you like about him?
