    His agent probably already fired himself and is staying as far as possible from the runaway train.

    I'm glad the Rockets are paying him $2.5 million - otherwise the taxpayers would be footing his living expenses because there's no way he would be gainfully employed.

    I *think* he takes Xanax? not sure if Im totally making that up, but I could swear I read it somewhere.
    Delonte West has bipolar disorder, he HAS to take anti-psychotics so I guess the league does allow it.


    He deleted this one, the internet never forgets Royce :rolleyes:

    Blackballin himself out of the league right now, wanted to raise awareness but in the end no team will ever draft someone with anxiety disorder again.

    Bull should say whatever the hell he wants at this point. God forbid the Rockets organization keep their flaps shut while White DEFAMES THEM all night long.

    Not even during Summer League? Seriously, I believe White really believes he was wronged. He may be delusional but his belief comes across as genuine.

    Everyone is trying to approach his motivations from their own perspective, or from the perspective of someone with out mental health issues. Rockets are simply tired of catering/babysitting someone like Royce White. They may have thought that the bus and getting him looked at by experts/meds was the end of their responsiblity. People with mental health issues need constant attention and the Rockets may have tired of this commitment.

    Yeah but that's what freaking shrinks are for. You're not supposed to air your (unjustified?) private issues so publicly that it makes others uncomfortable. He has zero common sense.

    Someone tell Royce that it is past his bedtime and he should get a good night's sleep before tomorrow's practice.

    Bullard stepped into dangerous territory there by reacting to Royce.

    Thanks for the input.

    Some people just don't know how good they got it. Royce is so lucky to be in this league. Only 0.00000143312 (450/314,000,000) of Americans can be in the NBA. How one does not make the most of it is beyond me. It's every man's dream job. I would seize it every day, but it looks like White is going to throw away his career.
