    F * * * him. What an entitled little b**** he is. And the fact that he STILL cashes his checks just makes me puke.

    Mental health? That's a completely different issue.

    I wonder who in the hell gave him the idea that he can handcuff a company and NOT work for a living....

    this guy took his NBA career for granted...as bad as it may be for the Rockets, I hope he NEVER plays a game in the NBA.

    Royce was out of shape when he finally turned up the first time right? Can't wait to see what he looks like this time around.

    The Rockets will probably ask him to get in shape before he gets any playing time. He'll run off sulking because his weight is a "medical issue" - and he'll take it to Twitter.

    "Fat people should be allowed to play NBA too"

    "I just want what was agreed upon"

    PT? I don't see it why he should get special treatment when he is not ready to join the Vipers.

    RVG first, then we talk.

    Its not news. That's just Morey's stock answer whenever he's asked about Royce White.

    You can copy that to their response about a tv deal...

    "continuing discussions and hoping to have a deal in place in not too long"

    Until either are in place, I have low hopes.

    Maybe White can be traded for Dirk Nowitzki too...

    Morey's tone and body language during the podcast were unenthusiastic to say the least when he was giving this answer. They moved on to the next issue pretty quickly.

    Lol

    I forget which interview but Friedman said absolutely nothing is happening concerning the Royce situation.

    At least Royce got his right, I bet you $1000 the game will never play an NBA game. Should've drafted a serviceable player.

    With his issues I don't think China is an option. Sure, people are immature at 21, but it doesn't take a brain surgeon to figure out who's writing your checks. He'd better think about what he's gonna be doing if this NBA thing doesn't work out. Oh how I would love to read his contract. I'm sure the Rockets have a way to void it.
