    Is it possible to attempt a meniscus transplant for Roy to have some semblance of a extended career.  Just dreaming and wishing can't blame a guy for that..... I know if I could I would give up some of my meniscus in a heartbeat to help the guy out.

    On a happier note, I am happy to finally be back to the forums!  Just got finished with Basic Training in July and AIT in November now I'm stationed in Alaska, where I will attempt to listen to every game online.  I know we will continue to impress those that don't keep tabs on our organization!

    I am a fan of competing til the final buzzer!!!!!!!!!!

    First of all, welcome back.

    I had the same thought, but I'm guessing that option was already explored with Brandon's doctor. I'm guessing a meniscus transplant provides some longevity to an everyday person's knees, but probably doesn't allow them to compete at the NBA level. If you think of it like a liver transplant; once you have one, you can't go out drinking anymore. Probably a similar rule applies here.

    Yeah I figure as much, hence the reason I titled the post "Pipe Dreams" but as long as the organization did what they could, I will continue to support our franchise.

    you know, it's would be a natural thing for those in alaska to be blazers fans since it's the closest team to them!

    dare we dream that, but it's a great dream!

    Most people that live up here actually don't give a lick about basketball at all.  It's nicer than having Laker fans everywhere but other than the guys in my unit, I have nobody to talk NBA with...

    Yeah, he was tripping with that Scottie Pippen reference. Nowhere as good as him, BUUUTTT, I think he can be, if he plays like a man. In Euroleague, you are taught more about finesse, and the fundamentals. He needs to put a little more muscle on, ...

    Ridnour doesn''t have a lot of offensive game, but he''s irritating as hell as an opponent and that''s what you want. He can run plays and stuff so he would be nice.

    Thanks Siccolo, not to knock on Bosh. I think if he was the number one option he would go back to being a beast. I miss making jokes about him playing for the RAPTORS. He is a great player.

    I think what Stotts is doing is superb. His plays are great. I remember the only play he ever called for Meyers Leonard, against the Bobcats. Great movement, got LMA a good mid range look, got Batum a decent three look and the got Meyers way down ...
