w*****n 发帖数: 2693 | 1 Portland Trail Blazers guard Brandon Roy is set to retire over his
degenerative knee problems, according to an article on ESPN.
The website said that unnamed sources said the announcement could come as
early as today.
Earlier this week, Larry Miller, team president, told The Oregonian that Roy
was expected to play this season.
Roy's chronically sore knees have been operated on six times, leaving him
with bone-on-bone friction. The surgeries have diminished the skills that
helped him win Rookie of the Year in 2007 and later become a three-time All
Star. | w*****n 发帖数: 2693 | 2 The seemingly never-ending saga surrounding Brandon Roy and his balky knees
has reached a stunning conclusion.
Two sources with knowledge of Roy’s decision told The Oregonian Friday
morning that the Trail Blazers’ guard plans to retire because of
degenerative knees, confirming a story first reported by ESPN.
Roy made this decision, one of the sources said, after meeting with doctors
on Thursday. After evaluating Roy’s knees, which have been operated on six
times and no longer have any cartilage, the doctor flatly told Roy he should
no longer play.
“You can’t do this,” the doctor told Roy, according to one of the sources
. “You might end up not walking.”
At one point Thursday afternoon, the Blazers had planned on making Roy
available to reporters for the first time since last season. But minutes
later, the availability was hastily called off.
One of the sources described Roy as very “emotional” and said he needed “
time to rest” and come to grips with his situation. It’s unclear when Roy
will be prepared to publicly address his retirement.
Friday’s development comes on the day the Blazers are scheduled to open
training camp for the 2011-12 NBA season, and after a week of dramatic
twists and turns involving his status with the franchise. | s****y 发帖数: 18685 | 3 shoot
