    Just told a very interesting story about Juwan Howard taking him aside after the Camby trade and telling Roy to not forget that this is HIS team, regardless of how many veterans the team brings in. Juwan also told Roy not to worry about "fitting in", and that he should be comfortable with "standing out".

    I thought it to be a very revealing look at how a veteran who has seen it all views his young teammate.

    Also he talked about he and Miller trying to find their stride. He used the "P" word. Patience. I'm not sure if that will be censored on this forum. He said it wasn't a big deal with the team, it was just blown up in the media. They knew it would just take time.

    I hope we keep Juwan around after this season. He has been great for the young guys on the squad. He is probably one of the nicest people I have ever met, no joke.
