    My thoughts exactly, and especially after giving Turkoglu a 5-year offer. If you want to negotiate with Roy, start at 5 years but at a less-than-max deal. To short him a year at the onset baffles me. I hope Roy's next team treats him better.

    Roy still not signed....?????

    I guess no one else thinks this is a big deal. He should of been signed the days ago. He was bye far the best pick in that draft and Toronto already gave Andrea Bargnani a five year deal. This is a slap in the face if you ask me. You think the Heat would hesitate 1 second to throw the max at Wade? do you think the Cavs would hesitate to throw the max at prince James? Those guys would have max years and money the second it was available to them. Everyday the blazers let this go bye is a disaster. There's nothing to negotiate here.

    Gee, thanks for bringing this up. Probably no other threads on this topic.

    It's a very big deal. A much bigger deal than page after page of Brandon Bass this, Paul Millsap that, or Kirk Hinrich over and over.

    Without Roy, none of this matters. Now he's going to put out a statement next week and reiterates how "frustrated" he is in a text to Brian Wheeler.

    Podcast up on 950kjr.com ... go to Softy's show, find the podcast bottom left of the page.

    Un-fucking-believable the way this organization is treating Roy. Makes me sick to my stomach.

    He can half-ass play next year, protect himself, and then go play for the Knicks. Or, he can demand a trade since the team obviously doesn't see him worthy of more than a 4 year deal.

    If Brandon Roy is not a Blazer after next season, I am 100% serious when I say it will be about 10 years before I ever EVEN watch a Blazer game again... and I am a diehard blazers fan.

    I'll admit that I've been protective of the Blazers, Pritchard, and their inactivity. But after this? I don't see how anyone can justify this treatment of Roy. The explanations I've seen in this thread are laughable from an asset standpoint, and I just can't get over Hedo's treatment by the organization versus that of Roy. It's extremely disappointment and very bewildering.

    Yes, my words on the internet matter. I'm sure Roy will be texting Wheeler about his upcoming statement answering my post. :crazy:

    You guys are all missing the point.

    Jason Quick is at fault. Fuck Jason Quick, that fucking liar!

    There is no qualifying offer here. The Blazers can exercise their option (if they have not already) for Brandon's fourth year.

    Next summer he would become a free agent and would be a restricted one if Portland extended him a qualifying offer. If he accepted that, then the NEXT summer (2011, after the CBA expires) he would be come an unrestricted free agent.

    Do any of you have any idea of how much we would have to pay him if he went to be a unrestricted free agent as compared to a contract extension? Are you thinking here? The year he would be available would be the year everybody is trying to have money free to make runs at big players. This is playing with fire. If you play with fire your going to get burned, even if you organization is named the Trailblazers. Quit fucking around.

    LOL

    Gotta give Quick his due on this one. This is a very big deal, and anybody who actually listens to that Roy interview knows it's a big deal.

    Funny how everyone bashed the fuck out of Quick, and then we find out there actually IS substance to his story.

    Just like everyone scoffed at the Rudy story, and there was truth behind that too.
