Honestly I'm not a huge fan if Roy either. So glad we have dame, he is a better face of the franchise. Definitely more personable.
Wow. I really liked Roy, I thought he was an incredible player to watch and a great face of the franchise. I still feel bad that we never got to see a healthy Roy and Oden play together.
I would have killed for a healthy Roy-Lillard back court. Yes I know we would not have been in position for Damian with a healthy BRoy, but damn they would be fun to watch together.
Unstoppable, best backcourt in the nba. Definitely championship contenders, probably favorites in west if we replace Wes with a healthy/in his prime BRoy.
Can you imagine Roy having to put up with Felton? That would have been hilarious. He would have strangled Felton.
I don't think it would. I think dame will be a good defender. His improvement or lack of it this offseason will tell us a lot.
Dame and Roy are polar opposites as players. Roy is an ISO guy who held the ball for 20 seconds and Lillard is a guy who needs a flowing offense to thrive.
He didn't in college. A different coach, different offense.... the dude would have adapted. Add a couple of guys spreading the floor and he and Lillard would have lots of room to work their magic.......
Roy was a great SF playing guard. Lillard is a tiny gnat who shoots long as well as Roy and that's it.
