    I tried but I made the mistake of telling Kahn I wasn't a point guard.

    This is my line of thinking too. He's free to sign with any team but us. Do you really think he's just going to sit there if he thinks he can play? He's wired to compete.

    Besides, most pro athletes don't get into the rivalries like the fans do. The players may START the rivalry, but the fans keep it... sometimes unnecessarily long.

    I thought I was angry with Minny for Roy, especially after the batum bs. AND THEN THEY STOLE MO FROM US.

    Roy was a bright flame of awesome, and at the time, my favorite player in the world, maybe ever. It would take more than Minny to change that.

    Of course, if he signed with the Lakers, die in a fire

    There never was an NBA player that made me cry like a fucking baby like Roy's game 4 heroics against Dallas

    I don't think Paul is too worried. The dude is worth 15 billion. If he did absolutely nothing with his money and only collected 5 % interest on it.....he would still make 750 million dollars this year..........

    So, you know, what did, you know, the Lillard shot, you know, do to, you know, win the series?

    That question came to us from Lamarcus Aldridge.

    Not even close... The game had the perfect setting for drama. Roy battling injuries, Nate puts him on the bench. And after the performance of game 3, you almost could hear Roy crying.

    Roy should have retired then.

    "Brandon's announcement that he is leaving the game ultimately shifted our decision to amnesty,"

    "Brandon has no intention of returning to professional basketball," his agent, Greg Lawrence, told Yahoo! Sports. "He has been instructed by several doctors that he has a career-ending injury and needs to stop playing immediately. He has chronic problems in both knees and his long-term health is already in jeopardy. ...Playing further will unquestionably have serious consequences."

    You've never said something then re-considered?

    I literally attest my birthday. Worst day on the calendar for me. I'm not even old enough to hate it for the fact that it means I'm older yet...I can't imagine when that day comes. I'll probably start taking tranquilizers and sleeping through the entire day!

    Eh. That's just depressingly true.
