I know the news about Roy, while expected and unsurprising, is tough to swallow and just another dose of reality that he may never be the same. So with that said, here are some of the best blocks from the Trail Blazers this year: Block Party
I thought this was going to be highlights from the Sacramento pre-season game a few years ago with a for-the-moment healthy Oden, Roy, Aldridge, Rudy, a charged-up Martell and Sergio, and a crowd that was eating it all up with a spoon. OHHHHH you said "cheer us up" not "depress us to the point of putting a pistol in our mouths". My bad.

That was Rudy's best game as a Blazer. I really don't think we've seen the same guy since Ariza took him out. He's been very different.
No kidding. I want that team. I'd almost forgotten how good 'Pistol' Fernandez was before Nate got ahold of him. I know Nate is a good coach, for what he does, but this team (err, THAT team) was not built for a Nate McMillan coach. If that team had had a Rick Adelman coach, and good health, my god we would have had a lot of fun. Aldridge, Oden, Joel, Roy, Rudy, Batum, a strong athletic bench....Shoot me. Shoot me now.
Agreed. If you look at Rudy before and after, he's been a different player. I have no idea why. Physically, he should be recovered from that cheap shot.
