Brandon Roy Was "Just Maintaining" During Final Portland Years

49

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Brandon Roy told reporters on Thursday that he's feeling better than he did during his final few seasons with the Portland Trail Blazers. Star-Tribune.com captured video of his explanation. ----------------------------- "I feel great. This is the best I've felt in a long time. The reason why I say that is because I'm able to improve. I'm able to come to the gym and work on my game and get better. I felt like the last couple of years there in Portland, I was trying to do my best to just maintain. That's the biggest thing I'm excited about. I'm in the gym working hard. Coach has to tell me to stop playing instead of me saying, 'OK, that's enough.'" ----------------------------- -- Ben Golliver | benjamin.golliver@gmail.com | Twitter
