    I'll be shocked if this is true.

    Really sad. I thought he could be effective in a smaller role.

    That sure caught me by surprise. However, I'm not going to get too worked up about it unless/until it actually happens.

    Omg wow! Does that mean I have to pay everyone on my bet? To be perfectly honest, this is great for the blazers. Roy retired a blazer. Fans will always remember him as their player. I have a suspicion that Roy will be part of our coaching staff! Now who told me Roy was a selfish dick? That guy better take back his words.

    This totally goes against what Roy told Nate etc. I'm not buying it. How could he go from saying he feels great to now retiring in a matter of a few days?!?!

    woah... not to mention this screws our cap for next season!!!!!

    If league docs concur Brandon Roy isn't fit to play, his contract comes of Blazers books 1 year from date of official retirement.

    It's just so fucking sad that he went from elite to retired in 1 year. Talk about train wreck as a broy fan!

    Well that certainly would be better than cutting and still paying him. Not sure I believe it unless it is coming from his agent. I thought his contract could not be insured? How does this work?
