Brandon Roy considering a comeback

[JohnRucker]

Former Portland Trail Blazers guard, Brandon Roy, has thought about returning to the game after retiring prior to the 2011-12 season due to numerous knee injuries, according to ProBasketballTalk.

“It’s the truth. It’s really hard being so far away from the game. I spend time watching Jamal (Crawford) and following all of his games; Will (Conroy) and Tre (Simmons) are both doing their thing, so it’s driving me to wanna come back out there.” Roy told US Basket, “If the treatment I’ve been looking into can work, I believe there’s a good chance you will see Brandon Roy back hoopin’.”

dont care who he goes to, hope he comes back, his story is just unfortunate. Hope he can make a return.

Always been one of my favorites. Hope he can make a good comeback.

[JohnRucker]

I agree. Very unfortunate situation at the time. I hope this new treatment could help him and others with the same type of problem.

does portland still own the rights to him, or can he go anywhere?

What’s with the cucumber dude?

Do NBA teams get an opportunity to add extra players at some point before the playoffs (i.e., do rosters expand)??

If so, it would seem like Roy never really intended to "retire" and was merely sitting out most of the season without taking up a spot on the Blazers bench.. once they can fit more players, he will suddenly be ready to make a triumphant return.

Now, where did I put my tinfoil hat

Just going for something different.

I think he can be a reliable sixth man for any team in the league. I wouldn't want to risk an injury with letting him start.

Lets hope is back for his sake!
