    That was a fantastic article, thank you for sharing.

    The NBA desperately needs players with class and integrity like Brandon Roy. It's a shame to see such a guy with great character and talent have his career end this way.

    I hope he returns to the Blazers int he future in some capacity or another.

    You should read the twitter feedback Quick got, it's amazing. In some ways I'm jealous of people in Portland and other cities where you feel like you get to know the players a lot more than you do in big cities like New York.

    Behind the Jazz, I've always been a fan of the Blazers franchise... but I don't feel as emotionally attached to the team like I do the Jazz (having grown up in Jazz-country), but reading all the support from the Portland fans, and the obvious connection Quick felt with Roy through the years of covering him... it kind of breaks my heart.

    I hope Brandon realizes that not just Portland fans appreciate his honesty, class, emotion, etc., but many other fans do. He was great for the league. It's a fucking shame that he wont' be able to influence it anymore.

    :(
