Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

B. Roy on San Diego Radio this morning

I get to hear about what a great character guy Brandon is all the time, but I rarely get to see (hear) it first hand.  This morning I got the chance when I was surprised that he was going to be on the local morning talk show I listen to (Dave and Jeff on xtra sports 1360  www.xtrasports1360.com).  They had him on talking about one of the charity promotions he is doing and, man, what a class act.  Even when one of the DJ's who's an admitted T-Wolves fan since he grew up in MN was asking him about if he likes to stick it to the T-Wolves when they play he just took it all in stride.  Their impressions after he hung up the phone with him was just simply "wow".  They left having the utmost respect for Brandon, the city of Portland, and the Trailblazers organization.  Man that guy is awesome.  I'm absolutely giddy about our future as a franchise!!

He was also on Colin Cowherd Today
He's awesome. Sounds like you are listening to one of ESPN's basketball guys, but... it's Brandon Roy.

Blazers Broadcasters Mike Barrett and Mike Rice re-enacted NBA referee Scott Foster's controversial goaltending call on Portland Trail Blazers forward LaMarcus Aldridge, who was defending Oklahoma City Thunder All-Star forward Kevin Durant, during this week's edition of Blazers Courtside. Remarkably, no one was injured during the taping of this segment.

OK, that should just about wrap up the goaltending discussion.
