On Tuesday, as you looked at the team’s cozy schedule and realized that Brandon Roy and the team were on the same page when it came to his contract negotiations, you couldn’t help but feel optimistic.

By 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday the sides had a verbal agreement. And the fingers of Blazers fans that were running down the schedule earlier in the day, suddenly started skipping.
