    Yes.

    On Twitter, Royce has compared his plight to the plight of those poor murderers who shoot up dozens of people.

    go for bruising Euro bigs or South Americans that can rebound.... safer, sounder ... maybe not flashier..
    who craves to be in this league

    Recent study: Scola, Varejao, Pekovic,Vucevic
    They are late 1st rounder to 2nd round ... financially reasonable

    Les should pay him, but make him be a Power Dancer or take tickets at the front. Or maybe he could be the guy that Clutch pies in all of his skits.

    What other ideas could we come up with for Royce to earn his paycheck?

    Lol, really. Draft late round euro's, all the lottery euro's suck.:grin:

    Good late rounders = Parker, Pek, Scola, Varejao, Ginobli

    ****ty early picks - Jan Vesely, Bargnani, Darko,

    That is true BUT
    I added bruisers..... guys that have NBA experience or NBA ready body types have a higher rate of being used or having success

    DMO's too skinny ... hope he bulks up soon

    Those that you mentioned are special cases.
    Picked up too early... none of those are late picks....

    I saw don't waive him, trade him or void his contract.

    Let him rot. Last thing we and Royce needs is to have another team snatch him right up and build up his nassasistic arrogant ass. Break him. It may take a whole NBA season before he gets the point but it will set precedence with him an Rocketa players.

    You can't wiggle, cry or complain your way out of the Org or onto the court.

    I want him to play and be a successful player on the Rockets,but he doesn't have much time left. I think the organization will have to eventually cut him.

    Stay the course. Fine him if you have to, but don't waive him. He's an afterthought right now. He means nothing. He's a stock that's performing terribly, but may have value in the long run. Put him in a drawer and forget about him for a while.

    I tend to agree... I think if he just is just in the backdrop and not with the team, he doesn't pose a threat to anyone or anything. Fine him for not participating in team activities and just see if he gets his mind right about playing NBA basketball.
