    Re: Rpy played possum during the regular season

    Y'all didn't understand Mags' original post - he didn't explicitly say Roy was going to start lighting it up in Game 1! He implied that it was going to happened sometime in the playoffs, but just not sure well. So Nate will stick with the plan and keep going to him until he does give us something.

    IMO, Roy's still playing possum and giving the Mavs a head start to make the series a little more exciting. It'd be really boring if we would've swept them while our 2nd rd opponent grits out a tough 7 game nail-biter of a series against the Hornets. That would give us an unfair advantage in the 2nd round too. Roy's just trying to create more parity in the NBA otherwise we'd go 16-0 through the playoffs. Then all the other fans around the country/world would cry foul and claim that the NBA is rigged and that we were pre-destined to win. We can't have that. So relax, we've got this all under control; it's all part of the master plan. And it's simply BRILLIANT!

    Regardless maxie Roy should not have been playing that much in the 4th and especially in the last 4-5 minutes of the game - a very bad decisiom by Nate. Put Wes in as he has deserved it with his play THIS year and his D at least, or play a lineup of Miller-Camby-Batum-Wallace-LMA

    This thread is simply ridiculous, Roy is and has played badly except for a couple of games, he hurts us more than he helps us. This team has played fine without him, he's likely done, I'd rather give other players the opportunity to win or lose this series other than Roy as opposed to the forlorn fantasy of Roy playing "possum" and all of a sudden reverting to his old self.

    I definitely appreciate the optimistic tone, but Roy said that there were times he didn't think he would even play again. This whole process has been about getting to know his body again and knowing what he can and can't do.
