On a 1 year contract in what many consider a write off year I can't see it hurting the Bulls at all but it could potentially help. What kind of shooter was he?? Did he get most of his points driving to the basket or was he a good mid range guy??

When he was 100% healthy, he was an all-around stud. He could convert off the drive and got to the line quite a bit, he was a very good mid-range shooter and could still score even if he didn't get all the way to the rim on a drive, and he was serviceable from deep.

He wasn't very good his last year though, which is probably closer to what you can expect. His attempts at the rim were way down, and he didn't shoot as well from any range either. Even if he rebounds as a mid-range shooter, he's going to be a lot easier to cover without the threat of the drive.

In his prime he was an elite 2G....I don't know of many players that would go into Boston and call out Paul Pierce the way he did on the floor and walk away winning the battle.

However- the main aspect for me to look at is the Blazers have NO interest in him. I understand they now have Wes Matthews and there isn't a need for Roy, but you'd think they 'd want to be that first team to give him another chance.......but they're not.
