Roy and Oden both ooze talent, but have had their careers devestated by injuries. However, I assume they will both attract quite a bit of attention in the offseason... some teams will drool over their potential and the 'what if' scenarios that would see their injury troubles suddenly disappear, while other teams will limit their playing time to coax as much mileage out of them as possible. I hope and expect BC to stay well clear of both players (and probably Green, for that matter), as he tends to shy away from anybody with an injury concern (ie: Pietrus last offseason). I could see both Roy & Oden becoming small minute backups for contenders, such as Miami, Chicago or the Lakers.

Looks like Roy has some left in the tank after all...
Brandon Roy‘s retirement from the NBA looks like it might only last one season.
The former Portland Trail Blazers All-Star is apparently headed back to the league, with a host of teams interested in acquiring his services for the 2012-013 season and beyond.
The Bulls, Mavericks, Pacers and Timberwolves are all, according to Yahoo! Sports, among the teams doing their due diligence to investigate Roy’s readiness for action.

That's all fair but Roy on that team.......I give him 3 weeks before he's injured again and done for good. Put him on the Spurs, Rockets, Suns, OKC, teams that actually know what they're doing with players and it wouldn't surprise me if he played 7 more years.

Brandon Roy has reached a verbal agreement with the Wolves, according to a member of his family.
Roy confirmed the news to Dave 'Softy' Mahler of KJR in Seattle.
Roy's agent, Greg Lawrence, confirms that the deal is worth approximately $10.4 million over two years.
"I'm excited to be back," said Roy. "I'm a T-Wolf!"
Roy came out of retirement this summer.

I'd look more at total minutes with Roy. He might be able to play 25-30 minutes per game.. for 5 games before re-injuring himself. Then what? Now you're paying $5M for a guy to sit on the bench.
What's more realistic is 10-15 minutes every other game.your pal,
