Can someone please get Brandon Roy some Vitamin C, or some echinacea?
I got nothing but love for you, B-Roy, but my 85 year old grandmother has a stronger immune system than you do.

in his defense he had a pretty brutal time in terms of sleep, travel, and played more minutes than anyone else on the weekend.

Good point, no other NBA player is put through the rigors Brandon had to face this weekend.

Considering he played in both the Rookie/Soph and All Star game, I'd say yes, he had a more rigorous weekend than any other player.

My point is that playing 2 games in the span of 5 days, with travel mixed in, is a part of most NBA players' careers. Brandon has been "ill to the point of almost being held out of the game" about 4 times this year. Just seems a bit much. I don't hear that much about LeBron, or Kobe, or Duncan, or Iverson, etc. being sick that much. Maybe they are and they just play through it and you don't hear about it, but it just seems odd to me.
Like I said - you won't find a bigger B Roy fan, I'm just wondering why the dude seems to get sick so much is all.
