    Exactly. They saw his huge salary and how little was left.of his meniscus. The Blazers then decided to amnesty.

    We could have waited atleast a year to amnesty if we really wanted him back.

    Yeah, but had they not amnestied him when they did, they would've have been able to sign Jamal Crawford and I can already see why my point is a bad one so nevermind.

    Pay the rest of that $80 mil contract for someone who is a shell of his former self. Ya, we quit on him. I'm fine with it.

    I thought he looked decidedly chunky in that video of him playing in that Seattle charity game.

    Don't like this at all. That said, he is a great guy and I will be rooting for him to light it up every night except against us. He is going to kill Wes in the post!

    I'm totally fine with it. I'm actually going to probably end up at his first game back as a T-wolf at the Rose Garden and I will probably rock my Roy Blazers jersey that night.

    The number is for the number of minutes per game he'll be effective.

    As a Bulls fan, I was pissed at management for breaking up the team that just won the championship. Jordan put up those numbers 4 years after retiring as a Bull. Pippen went on to play for Houston, then Portland and was still great.

    Yeah it looks strange. They just photo shopped a Blazers picture? Really? It looks like a video game. Lame.

    Jordan retired at the top of his game (6 time champion), not because he was too hurt to play anymore. Jordan won 6 championships for Chicago.

    If Roy won 6 championships for us, retired, and then wanted to play a little more for Minnesota for the lve of the game, I'd be happy for him.

    There is no comparison whatsoever.

    The way Minnesota is selling Roy is like how a dive bar would sell a cover band like its the real McCoy.

    Sad.

    Well said - and yes, he has put on some weight. His knees are already going to be slowing him down, he doesn't need to be carrying extra weight too.

    You'd think they'd leave an iconic pic like that one alone. Bitches. Minny is quickly becoming one of my hated teams.
