    I don't see what would make you think that. Other teams' entries seem to either justify their rank or speculates on the implications of that ranking. The Rockets are the only one with a real oddball comment.

    And, the weird thing about it is that as an actual fan of the Rockets, I didn't know that about Royce White. It's not like that's what all the Rockets headlines are dwelling on. They had to dig a little to come up with that little nugget and then they had to have brain trauma to think it was relevant. If I had to guess at their motives, they must think fans see White as a savior and he's not coming through.

    On a different note.
    Let me get this straight. Royce White DRIVES all the way to Cali because he's supposedly "afraid" to fly and he gets not one but TWO technicals and is ejected from the gm?

    This guy just doesn't get it and NEVER will.

    I keep hoping the media just forgets about Royce White. If he were a normal guy putting up his numbers at D-league, he would be so far off anyone's radar we could almost forget we drafted him.

    13. Houston Rockets (33-28, previous ranking: 13th): After eight years of serving as dual mascots, the performer playing Turbo retired, making Clutch the sole mascot for the team.

    1. Miami Heat (44-14, previous ranking: second): After viewing more than 50 versions, there is no better video rendition of the “Harlem Shake” than the Heat's. There probably is not an NBA team with better camaraderie, too.

    Because we obviously rely heavily on Royce White's development for our current playoff hunt and future of the organization. Yahoo is crazy awesome

    shows how great yahoo sports is at covering the NBA.

    they're the only ones to point out how White playing like **** in the d-league has a negative impact on the rockets who are actually on the roster

    another first class article from a renowned and reliable media outlet

    I don't trust a kid with a lawyer dad. He might sue for a #protocol or something.
