Off the Court News 2nd Edition


Huge congrats go out to the Roy Bot!! Brandon Roy has been named the NBA Western Conference Player of the Week!

From USAToday:

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Portland Trail Blazers guard Brandon Roy has been named the NBA Western Conference Player of the Week.

The All-Star averaged 27 points while leading the Trail Blazers to four victories last week. He had 41 points in a comeback win at Golden State.

This is the fifth time Roy has won the award in his career. Clyde Drexler is the only other player in franchise history to win it that often.

WooHoo!! Roy definitely deserves this honor! He has been doing serious work for the Blazers this past week after finally getting back to his usual Roy Bot self! It's really exciting having Brandon get the recognition he deserves! Keep it up BRoy!

A side note, it's also exciting hearing Blazers head coach, Nate McMillan's name being thrown around in Coach of the Year considerations. It really is remarkable how Nate has taken this team, down and injured, and turned them into serious playoff contenders. Love him or hate him, you have to admit that he's doing something right getting this team into the playoffs and making them a real threat. 


Lastly, Rudy Fernandez will be doing a signing TOMORROW in Salem, OR!


Tomorrow I will be at Capitol Subaru in Salem (OR) at 5,30 to sign autographs

Where:
2505 Mission Street Southeast
Salem, OR 97302
(503) 316-4294


When:
5:30 PM

Who/Why:
IT'S RUDY "EL MACHETERO" FERNANDEZ! That's Why.


I've met Rudy once before at his Verizon Wireless signing late last year and it was a fantastic experience! Rudy was nice enough to talk to my good friend in NYC on the phone and was incredibly genuine and kind. I definitely suggest you make it down to Salem to meet him if you can, you won't regret it! 

That's all your off the court news for now!
