Warren2ThaG Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 (edited) I think he'll do fine and average decent numbers, health is the issue. I think he knows how to play with his knees now and will be fine over the season with some minor few days off.

Sħãlïq™ Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 I'd say 15 PPG and 5 APG!! BTW, here's a good read on how Roy ended up in Minny: Longtime friend helped bring Roy to Wolves MANKATO, Minn. (AP) -- When Minnesota Timberwolves President David Kahn made his pitch to Brandon Roy, he had a glaring need at shooting guard for him to fill, an accomplished coach who could put Roy in the right positions on the floor and a two-year contract all on his side to woo the former All-Star. He also had Will Conroy. Kahn and Conroy go way back, to their time together in the NBDL when Kahn was the GM of the Albuquerque Thunderbirds and Conroy was his point guard. Conroy goes back even farther with Roy. The two were teammates at Garfield High School in Seattle and at the University of Washington, and have been the closest of friends for years. Conroy also played briefly in Houston with current Timberwolves coach Rick Adelman. So when it came time for Roy to decide where to start his comeback after sitting out a season with chronic knee pain, the Wolves had a strong voice in Roy's inner circle that may have made the difference. "When Minnesota was one of the teams that stepped forward to being on his radar, I said `B, you've got to go to Minnesota,"' Conroy said. "Now the weather is a little different. But you'll love playing there. You'll love playing for the coaching staff. He had a couple of teams with some nice cities like Dallas, Golden State, Chicago. He chose Minnesota, which is a big testament to the coaching staff and our front office." And to the trust that Roy has in Conroy. Along with fellow Seattle native Jamal Crawford, another occasional Timberwolves free-agent target who signed with the Los Angeles Clippers this summer, the three have a tight bond that is years in the making. They rely on each other for career advice, moral support and everything else. So it's no surprise that when Roy was making a big decision, Conroy was in on the discussion. "We're best friends," Conroy said. "We try to tell each other the best things possible as far as our careers and guiding our careers and stuff like that. If it wasn't a good situation, I wouldn't have told him to come."Full Story Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChosenOne Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 I think 15-5-5 sounds about right for him. He could score more but I don't see him doing much of anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blazed49 Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 Wow. 15-5-5? He didn't even average the 5-5 in his prime. I'd say more like 12-14 ppg then maybe 2-3 boards and 2-3 dimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
