Blazers guard Roy says he's retiring,[url=http://duveticaitaly.albirank.net/][b]Duvetica Coats[/b][/url]
All-star guard Brandon Roy has told Portland he plans on retiring because of ongoing trouble with his knees,[url=http://monclerjackenoutletch.albirank.net/][b]Moncler Weste Billig Moncler Jacken Outlet Moncler Outlet Österreich[/b][/url].
A five-year veteran who helped the team shed its "Jail Blazers" reputation,[url=http://discountnikesoccershoes.webmium.com/][b]http://discountnikesoccershoes.webmium.com/[/b][/url], Roy has been dogged by pain for the past two seasons. He has said in the past that he lacks cartilage between the bones in both knees.
Acting general manager Chad Buchanan said the Trail Blazers were still looking at their options concerning Roy,[url=http://billigeparajumpersjackendamen.albirank.net/][b]Billige Parajumpers jacken damen parajumpers outlet long bear herren[/b][/url], including the amnesty clause in the NBA's new labour agreement.
Players were informed of Roy's surprising decision on Friday morning before the team's first practice of training camp,[url=http://billigtmonclerdunjackastockholmrea.olimx.com/][b]Billigt Moncler Dunjacka Stockholm Rea Moncler Jacka Sverige Online Outlet[/b][/url].
"I couldn't believe it," Blazers forward Nicolas Batum said. He was part of bringing it back, bringing back winning basketball," McMillan said. "Unbelievable talent. You're sad to see a situation like this happen."
It sounded as if Roy was ready to go when Blazers president Larry Miller, coach Nate McMillan and acting general manager Chad Buchanan held a news conference on Monday. Roy had met with team officials earlier that day and said he felt good and was ready to help the team in any way he could.
But it became apparent during a medical evaluation on Thursday that Roy's knees were not going to be able to handle another season,[url=http://cheapsoccercleatswithfreeshipping.webmium.com/][b]http://cheapsoccercleatswithfreeshipping.webmium.com/[/b][/url].
"It's a tough situation,[url=http://duveticaouterwear.blogspot.com/][b]http://duveticaouterwear.blogspot.com/[b][/url]," Blazers centre Marcus Camby said. "People will say 'Hey,[url=http://duveticaouterwear.blogspot.com/][b]duvetica outerwear[b][/url], he'll get his money.' But Brandon's a competitor."
Buchanan said late Friday that the team was exploring its options concerning both a formal medical retirement and amnesty for Roy, who signed a five-year maximum contract with the team in 2009. The clause would allow the team to waive Roy without having his salary count against the cap and luxury tax.
"We're somewhat in the infant stages of going through that process and getting that started," Buchanan said. "But [we're] very supportive of Brandon in all of this. It's a very difficult decision as you can imagine."
If the 27-year-old Roy files for medical retirement,[url=http://duveticaoutletcanada.halod.com/][b]duvetica jackets canada online outlet[/b][/url], insurance likely would take care of his salary in coming years. His salary would not count against the cap after one year.
Roy sat for stretches of last season because of soreness. He had arthroscopic surgery on both knees last January and finished the season with a career-low average of 12,[url=http://www.duveticajacketsjp.com/][b]デュベチカ専売店[/b][/url].2 points in 47 games,[url=http://duveticaitaly.albirank.net/][b]DUVETICA Piumini Italy Vendita[/b][/url].
Roy averaged 19 points,[url=http://www.duveticajacketsjp.com/][b]デュベティカアウトレット[/b][/url], 4.7 assists and 4.3 rebounds for his career.
The sixth overall pick in the 2006 draft out of Washington,[url=http://cheapnikesoccercleatsmercurial.webmium.com/][b]cheap nike soccer cleats mercurial Discount Soccer Cleats Clearance Cleats[/b][/url], Roy was acquired by the Blazers in a draft-day trade. The 2007 NBA Rookie of the Year made the all-star team from 2008-2010.
Nicknamed "The Natural" by the team's broadcasters,[url=http://duveticadownjacketssale.webmium.com/][b]http://duveticadownjacketssale.webmium.com/[/b][/url], Roy has been the affable face of the franchise and remains popular among Portland fans.
In last season's first-round playoff series against the eventual NBA champion Dallas Mavericks, Roy shook off the pain and led Portland to a stunning 84-82 comeback victory in Game 4. He scored 18 of his 24 points in the fourth quarter as the Blazers erased a 23-point deficit.
But when it was over, Roy sounded defeated.
"This has just been a tough year, my most difficult as a Blazer,[url=http://cheapnikesoccercleatsmercurial.webmium.com/][b]cheap nike soccer cleats mercurial[/b][/url]," he said. "I tried to make the most of things. I can definitely say I honestly tried. I've given this team my best."
