Never Forget You - A Tribute To Brandon Roy

On December 9th 2011, Brandon Roy announced plans to retire from the game of basketball. Not only was Brandon a continuing source of inspiration both on and off the court, he is also a personal hero of mine. Brandon, thank you for all of your hard work and the countless unforgettable memories you have given to the city of Portland and basketball fans around the world. You will truly be missed from the game.

Anybody else watching this in 2020?? These were fun days...

[@kdub3153]

This guy has always been my idol. I was literally devastated as a kid when I finally understood he just couldn't play anymore. I looked up to him so much and he always has a special place in my heart.

[@ajp50381]

You must still be a kid, because he retired like two years ago, lol.

[@zarghoonaamin9505]

A Pizzel he never retired he started playing on the timberwolves

[@Jarekthegamingdragon]

zarghoona amin Amin Uh, he hasn't played for the wolves in years dude.

[@wenhuigao9679]

It's so FUCKING sick and it FUCKING sucks to see him retire that early. He's so nice to the fans and every one around him. I have never seen such politeness and manner on a NBA player before. His work ethic and mental toughness will overshadow anyone in the history of the league. I can think off a second Austrian can come back from a knee-surgery in 10 days and play in the playoffs. I can't imagine another player lead to a 23-point comeback playing with one knee. If blazers don't retire his jersey, I will fucking hate that organization.

[@uli23t]

theres no doubt they are retiring his jersey... they are already not letting anyone wear it to begin with

[@MABeezy009]

B-Roy had hall of fame potential, one of the best all round players when he was healthy, it's sad to know the kind of player he could have been if not for injuries.

[@Johnnnnie]

its 2023 and i don't know how many times i've seen this video, Roy and Rose will always be a "what if they were healthy". Would have loved to see a league with both of them healthy and in their primes.

[@LokoDeuce5]

Shit Rose scored 50 his first time after Injury so we can at least say We saw Rose play a longer career than expected but Sadly we were robbed of both Roy and Rose prime due to the knee injuries.

[@rdmcabee]

Roy is what a complete NBA player looks like. Defense, passing, playing in control, athletic, great jump shot, great team mate. One of the best.

[@victorampo1137]

I still come back to this

[@konzn7927]

5 years later still my idol

[@konzn7927]

9 years later HES passed the torch to lillard but I’ll never forget the man who made me fall in love with basketball

[@UndeadItachi2]

Idc what anyone does BRoy will always be my favorite

[@TheAnswer189]

10 years later, still the reason I support Portland. This man. 😭

[@konzn7927]

@@TheAnswer189 RipCity forever 😤❤🖤

[@airsaiyan24]

I’ll always come back to this mix 💙

[@sfang89]

Always devastating to see injuries derail careers. He was definitely on his path to become a Hall of Famer. I will miss watching him play. He was one of the greatest scorers in today's game.

[@LokoDeuce5]

I love Brandon Roys athleticism. I remember he beat my hometown Knicks with a buzza beater layup i believe. He was a rare generational talent.

[@Roazhon_Y91]

Thank You Brandon Roy, from France. You made me wake up in the middle of the night so many times, just to see you playing. Pure class player, I'll never forget you. Sad day for basketball ... :'(

[@commanderdog]

Best fans in the NBA. Not saying that because I have lived in Portland my entire life, but because they truly are the best fans you'll ever meet. We dedicate and are patient through all trades/heartbreaks. Brandon was like a breath of fresh air to the Blazer organization. That playoff game last year was simply amazing. I've never seen someone do what he did in that game, not even Jordan. It was just a miracle and a reason I love watching basketball.

[@corentingrillo5031]

I will respect this guy my entire life !! He's one of my favourite player !!!

[@MJM1219]

Brandon Roy was one of my favorite players. This is honestly one of the best mixes on youtube.

[@shashwatsigdel]

the most underrated player to ever play in the NBA. thanks for all the great memories.

[@justinseman44]

Brandon Roy was the soul of the team, the heart of the team, a Trail Blazer that anyone could ever ask for. He was a role model to the trail blazer fans. He was like our hero. Best of luck B Roy.

[@allanbulanlangutierrez5819]

i love this kind of player who plays with his heart and not for the contract or money matters. but playing what he loves most and proving all fans what he's capable of. Best of Luck brandon roy!

[@bluntsfromthecrypt6651]

Brandon Roy is in my top 3 fav player of all time

[@mixedboy16]

The best mix i have ever seen for a player . Roy was a special one but sad to see his career end so short. Great job Brandon Roy you didnt fail us.

[@boblet99]

Portland loves you B Roy. I loved watching you. No one played ball like you did, when you had the ball there was work to be done. When that ball touched your hand there was magic. I love you B Roy and everything you did for my P-Town. We'll miss you.

[@KennnnyT]

The way he ended his post season should be enough for them to retire his jersey.... Most amazing 4th quarter comeback ever and all on him. A fire of passion was lit in his heart that made him rise beyond his injuries and to make big plays in the 4th quarter. This will forever be remembered in history. Maxa you make the best videos ever. I hope you never retire as well. If you ever do i'll retire your jersey for you because to me you are a legend.

[@Sn3akyCh1cAnA]

no doubt i was at the game 4 comeback to see brandon roy do a flashback of what hes cabable of and i watch his videos til this day cuz he could of been one of the greatest of all time with being a great person and on my favorite team which im loyal so i wait for this stars to come! in that game against the mavs im ashamed to say there were fans booing roy until he took over, i would never do that he is a legend and could of been one of the best of all time if not for the injury! your my hero b_roy

[@janicediva]

I gotta stop watching these videos! It's just so heart breaking. Life really isn't fair! Thank you for everything Brandon! You're a legend!!!!

[@JHfuture23]

Im a die hard knicks fan and this video brings me to tears every time. Brandon was such a stand up guy, his story is so sad. BROY7 i miss you man

[@TheTower51]

Happy 35th birthday B-Roy

[@DonKE3]

one of the most humble and hard-working individuals in the league. lots of respect for this guy.

[@OMGxJayBee]

I started watching Basketball when i was 11, when Roy was a rookie. NBA to me was Brandon Roy. Seeing him leave is heartbreaking. Roy was more then just a player to me, he was an idol. Through all the pain & hate that he would get, he turned out to be one of the best players to play the game in just 5 years. Doing things that most people can't. There will never be another Player that is as great, on and off the court. Thank you for being more then just another NBA player. #RetireB-RoysJersey

[@ConcreteWave98]

This gives me shivers every time i watch it.

[@MisterBinx]

That last imagine...That brings tears to my eyes. Brandon enjoy the rest of your life and spend lots of time with your family. You made Portland proud always.

[@scabanas9]

Thank you for putting this, I'll never forget that game against Dallas in the playoffs

[@WhenDeadWalks]

B roy you'll always be in my heart.. i watched every game you've played in the nba even the all star game.. brandon you're in inspiration to me and alot of people.. can't wait for your comeback.. B ROY #7

[@tjpization]

my heart is heavy. theres nobody like broy. game 4 was his crowning achievement. what a way to go out. #7 forever.

[@MrBreezyG]

This makes me cry every time, it really hits home for some reason...

[@TheKingofthe503]

Thank you Brandon Roy for all the joy and great memories you brought us. Portland loves you and will never forget what you did.

[@TheCJohns]

Roy, we love you. We will never forget you. Your irreplaceable. Not just Portland fans but all basketball fans will miss you. I wish you luck in retirement. Thanks for the memories.

[@blackanwhiteriot]

so happy me and my brother and friend are lucky enough to be a picture with brandon roy at the playoff rally. @4:01 front row. i'll miss you b roy!

[@meaty941]

am tearing up, my fav player, i miss you, i have knee problems 2 and you were my inspiration 2 continue playing basket ball, ive missed practice because of this and propbaly not gonna make the team this year and have 2 give up as well but we had a good ride 2gether, thank you brandon,

[@BoatsnHoes750]

such a beautiful video, as a seattle native watching him grow and develop into an NBA star i am so proud of what he has done and i hope his knees can recover. i honestly was crying by the end of the video

[@ThePeachTube]

Just dropping by again to watch this video. I miss Brandon so much and I really wish we could've seen a career with a healthy Brandon Roy.

[@Darwyyn]

I love you, max. In the name of all Brandon Roy fans , i would like to thank you for this wonderful tribute.

[@ddogboy]

I have so much respect for this guy, he really has a lot of heart. It's a shame he had his career cut short

[@CHSPORTSDG]

Crazy to think that its been over 7 years since this legend retired. Man I miss watching this guy tear up teams. One of the greats that will forever be missed and will always be a hero in my books

[@MarGus_gaming]

good luck and may GOD bless you in your new journey in life. Thanks for the memories. You already have proven what you can out there in just short period of time.

[@1971Corwin]

Brandon did an interview on The Vertical podcast. I had to watch this video again.

[@anthonyschwartz8901]

Me too man

[@chrislacy1990]

Never knew THE VERTICAL podcast existed until I saw your comment today so thank you! I'm currently listening to Brandon Roy's interview and, man, I wish he was still playing. I always said he was the "Tim Duncan of shooting guards" because he always played the right way.

[@1971Corwin]

Chris Lacy That's a good comparison. Brandon was a super smart, fundamentally sound player. I love our current team, but I'll never stop missing Roy.

[@chrislacy1990]

Jason Farrell Well said, my friend. I really like Portland, especially with Damian Lillard as the leader. However, I believe Brandon Roy would have had *at least* one NBA title, one Finals MVP, and one League MVP if he was still playing.

[@bturn10]

hell of a tribute video for a hell of a player..will be missed in the NBA, prayers out to Roy

[@jackyyaobasketball]

i literally cried when i saw the news that he was retiring. he inspired me and i try to follow in his path every day of my life. #ballislife #basketballneverstops

[@DanielMoon]

at least the last memory we have of brandon roy is that amazing 4th quarter comeback against the blazers not a blazers fan but ive got MAD respect for brandon roy, you will be missed by all nba fans across the globe

[@thectygrl]

Still a little heartbroken to imagine a season without Brandon Roy. He is such an amazing individual on and off the court. I truly wish him the best of luck in his future and sincerely thank him for all he gave to the city of Roses. I'm sure I'm not alone in saying, "Brandon, you will be greatly missed."

[@trunkpunch]

It's really not fair, his career being so short. In just 5 short years, he has provided soooo many memories for us Blazer and NBA fans. And to think that he has had knee issues since high school.....think about what he would've been like with healthy knees and a full career. WOW. I almost feel selfish saying that watching him for the past 5 seasons wasn't enough. Brandon Roy is and will always be a special player and person for the Portland Trailblazers. I will never forget you, #7.

[@dhill6025]

Amazing tribute. Even more amazing is that almost every clip is from the 08-09 season. Just look at the "00" stripe on the jersey. If there was a highlight reel of his entire career it would be truly amazing.

[@SquiggleWalter2022]

Brandon Roy for Hall of Fame. We as fans need to do whatever we can to make sure it happens. Its the least we could do after all the great games BROY gave us

[@pierrew8334]

Drose and D.Roy! The two best guards ever in the world. I'll never forget you Roy!

[@ajp50381]

It's B-Roy dipshit

[@SELOTEJPCREW]

what a fail comment xD

[@garowe22]

I miss this guy. Hope he recovers and shines one more time before he retires.. Keep ya head up B-Roy Da 206 is proud of you.

[@tubbyzxc]

Beautiful. B-Roy is a Portland legend. RIP (city) Brandon.

[@Cecyale67]

I could watch this video 19 933 times, I would always have goosebumps !

[@andyfusaro3174]

Brandon Roy, in my book you are one of the best out there. i hope that your treatment works out and we all get to see you play in the NBA again

[@Ricric2395]

Damn!! I miss Broy :( my 2nd favorite player behind kobe.

[@snaboof]

I still cry a little every time I watch this

[@MrMoshymoro]

Its an absolute shame to see a pure talent like Brandon Roy to have medical retirement... I hope he stays involved in basketball and wish him all the best for life after basketball! You will be greatly missed by all!

[@vcerrone13]

one of the hardest workes and biggest hearts the game has ever saw

[@jjr261224]

My favorite player of all time. So much passion and heart. Hope all is well with the knees BR, remember your family and well being come first bra. Good Luck.

[@harrypittmusic]

I still get chills every video I see that buzzer beater against Houston.

[@blazerjd2424]

Huge heart. Brandon Roy is amazing.

[@gtrko117]

He was the heat and soul of The Blazers and will always be my favorite player. I hope you find success in your comeback with the Wolves and thank you for all the times, all the passion you committed to Portland. You will be missed. Thank you B-ROY!

[@immty2646]

he has heart, he has talent... it's the loss of nba that he can no longer compete

[@inumba777]

Always will be one of my favorite players of all time.

[@aneebaba06]

Brilliant! Thank you Brandon for your 5 years for us - it was short, but sweet and memorable. Great job with the video Maxamillion

[@hgj3741]

you have made this song a motivation song for me. everything i listen to this i think of the moves he uses in this mix. thank you!

[@OsirisNYK]

One of the greatest mixes ever.

[@jrzy49]

Sad to see someone with so much heart never be able to do what they love anymore. It's really tough to deal with because he was destined to be one of the greatest.

[@dakroww]

You will be miss Brandon and thank you @MaxaMillion711 for always capturing these moments with such brilliance!

[@MichaelMitreski]

roy was amazing, fastest slowest player i ever seen in my life lol

[@iDesikiki]

An amazing tribute for an amazing player.

[@Izzlemynizzle61]

he had so much talent! and this ain't even at the end of his career..he was just coming in his prime years! i will miss him :(

[@0Xenex0]

One of the best 2 I've ever seen :'(

[@YungDuce-yj7pe]

Ill always remember Brandon Roy and think of him when I play ball

[@SuperVirk1]

It hurts my heart seeing such a nice humble guy having to retire so early in his career

[@swagger1930]

I watch this video about three times a day. During the middle of the day when I go to sleep and before any of my basketball games/practices

[@thogod1819]

Man i miss this guy

[@rinpuia6859]

Thanks for the brandon roy memories

[@smileytate]

Time for b.roy to come back. So raw, nba needs you

[@Cmcoluch]

[@pistachio0891]

@MaxaMillion711 Thank you for creating one of the finest tribute videos, for one of the finest players. Forever in our hearts in Portland.

[@nyonker5]

My favorite player the day he retired i almost cried and im only 12, roy you will truly be missed

[@Trixter1771]

Greatest. Tribute. Ever. Brandon, thank you

[@JVas93311]

Sucks it ended the way it did. He was so consistent and talented. Kudos to Roy for being as successful as he was with all his health issues. RESPECT

[@pennyccwai]

miss him

[@MisterBinx]

Brandon Roy will always been one of the biggest what ifs in sports history. We saw what he could do with bad knees. Healthy, this guy is for sure a hall of famer with multiple championships. I still doesn't seem real that he is gone now. One of the few true superstars this franchise has ever had.

[@ryan9758]

I got huge shivers watching this video, just incredible

[@mscarolee123]

chills! this is wonderfully made. thank you, mr. roy--enjoy retirement, and lets put your jersey way up high, where it belongs!

[@gmorkill]

One of the smoothest players to ever play; he was never out of control and played at his own pace. B-Roy was a real magician.

[@333erty]

this makes me want to cry, no joke... I hope he comes back to the league strong.

[@MELO2STAT]

The brightest stars burn out the quickest. miss ya broy

[@gbpackerful]

one of the greatest blazers ever he didnt deserve what happened to him. ripcity will always be your home B ROY one love

[@JoseCaldercat]

beautiful.. just beautiful..

[@RedSaint10]

Who wouldn't like to see this story? The two guys who had tough problems in their knees, playing together to win a championship. Just two humble guys playing for a championship. D. Rose & Brandon Roy. Please God

[@BUZKILL954]

Dude this made me cry ... I want more and more ...... This isnt right... its hard for me to accept i will never see him in another game.... I just want everything to turn out right for him and my blazers... Lets do this.... Rip City Baby

[@wufanvalencia]

It's always sad to see players to retire because of injuries. Roy used to be one of the best SGs in the league. an excellent player, not only Portland, every basketball fan will miss this bug talent! Good luck, Brandon!

[@PhoenixRising2041]

CRAZY...great job once again! I'll miss you Brandon!
