    Sounds like the "protocol" is that "Whatever the doctors recommends, the team has to comply." So it's pretty much a blank check. That's why he's not giving the specifics because there's no specifics. He is asking the team to sign a blank check. No team will ever do that.

    at the end of the day it depends on how good a player he is

    If Lebron had anxiety... they will do what ever he wanted...

    irony... is you compared his situation to that of a young Artest....

    Artest, Rodman, Maxwell... those were guys who toughened it out on the court and who cares what they did off it
    They were basketball addicts not some music addict of the Beatles.

    RW is a chicken. He tries to do the opposite. Be a fake tough guy on twitter.
    He delivers less than chicken soup on the court....

    I don't care about this... This has nothing to do with Royce White situation. You're acting like Royce White is such a great person compared to those guys. Royce White is still a rookie and he's already doing all this crap already. I bet you anything he will continue to break the law as time goes on.

    It doesn't matter what those guys you listed did because even though they all make mistakes, they at least show up to work while Royce White signed the contract first and then pull this protocol **** out of his ass.

    STOP BRINGING UP OTHER PLAYERS! No one brings up the issue about that tragic event that happen to innocent school children but Royce White think its ok... That shows you the type of person Royce is...

    Disgust hate should be used for rapist and killers and also for someone who uses the tragic events of innocent school kids being killed to his situation...

    And the problem is that he says his personal doctor is part of making this "protocol."

    Rockets don't lose anything at this point cause he isn't doing anything anyways. I'm assuming, he is at home throwing away his money and eating junk food like Felton. I really don't like this guy, He needs to go.

    Do club teams ever interview/talk/ask questions to their respective draftee choice some time before the night of the draft; like a few days, or weeks or a month in advance (if the team knows if they are certain to draft that certain player)? I wonder if that would have changed us drafting him? Or is that illegal and not allowed?
