    Hmmm. Interesting. Last I hear, he was all about the Blazers and did not want to play USA ball. Now Miller is here, pissing Roy off and he wants to play for team USA now.

    Nice Miller. I am starting to really not like this guy. Winning cures all though. So we had better win some games.

    boy that is some misplaced blame you're rolling out. As the unnamed team USA guy alluded, Roy has stated that both injury and contract issues kept him from playing last year but that he wanted to... this was prior to Andre signing. Contract settled and injury free, he still wants to play today... how is that (1) Andre's fault (2) a bad thing?

    That is the wackiest inference I've ever heard ... seriously? That's the conclusion you drew from that?

    Roy must have gotten a case of the clap from Sergio before he left. That's the only explanation I can find.

    Roy sees his stats will fall, and his time with the ball will fall, with Miller here.

    That means less highlights, less positive stories, less limelight.

    If he can't get it with the Blazers, Roy will get it with Team USA.

    He's quite serious about eventually being recognized as the best player in the game, and he will not let the Blazers or Andre Miller prevent that.

    Once again, kidding right? If you're serious this is funny. Andre will make this team better even if it does take the ball out of Brandon's hands for a few plays.

    And who the fuck are you? You got some kind of fucking problem with people sharing their points of view? What the fuck are you doing here if you can't accept that people are going to have different points of view than you.

    I am okay I am just sick of these bitches trying to talk shit about people for what they believe in. These keyboard tuff guys drive me insane. I have been trying to keep a really cool head, but people who just want to attack your post and not say anything relevant (yes I know I used to do that all the time but I am changed) makes me mad!!!!!!

    If all you want to do is attack a poster, then just don't hit 'submit reply' - you fucking jerks.

    Really? Seems to be about par for the course on here lately. Mostly from 3-4 posters, but they unfortunately live on here so that's about half of what I read. I may have to give into the ignore feature, because this is supposed to be fun, not :NOTMARIS: 24/7.

    Dante has come a long way in the short time I have known him on this board. Cut him some slack.

    This isn't about the team.

    It's about Roy.
