    Yep, full max deal just like most people expected him to get. Great news!

    YAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!

    Woohoo!

    I just tuned in, and they're not talking about it. Just said "verbal agreement."

    Were the terms of the deal mentioned?

    Canzano said on his breaking news thing that they had a verbal for the max. That's all I heard.

    Sweet.

    I don't know where Roy ranks talent wise among the elite in the NBA, but I think he is the perfect fit as the face of the franchise for the city of Portland.

    Stay humble, classy and most of all hungry Brandon.

    Re: Roy agrees to terms with Blazers

    Oops, missed this thread. Well, as I said in the other one, a full max deal with no player options would seem like a good compromise. Wonder if there are any player options.

    This has nothing to do with this thread but I just realized Minstrel has a CALVIN AND HOBBES thing in his signature. Points for you sir, points for you.

    Re: Roy agrees to terms with Blazers

    I always get inexplicably nervous in October when they still haven't picked up rookie deal options - I get it into my brain that somehow Pritchard/Penn/Miller/Allen will totally forget they have options to pick up and we'll lose a player the next summer.

    Re: Roy agrees to terms with Blazers

    Full max deal, eh? Was that so difficult?

    Not a bad result for Roy having no leverage. :devilwink:

    Calvin & Hobbes may be the greatest artistic achievement in human history. It belongs in art museums.

    Re: Roy agrees to terms with Blazers

    Does this mean we can all be friends again? Group hug?

    Oh wait, no Aldridge signing yet and we still have Outlaw and Blake on the roster.

    Drat!

    Man I grew up on Calvin and Hobbes. In fact I still have the very last C&H strip Bill Watterson ever did for sentimental purposes.

    For some of us it certainly seemed to be.

    What will we do with all those KP voodoo dolls now?
