    Morey is not dumb, but everyone makes mistakes. It was a gamble which didn't pay off.

    Morey also drafted Joey Dorsey and thought he was the best defender in the nation and ready to contribute right away.

    hehe

    - ass licking happens all the time lol
    - getting a girl knocked up happens all the time with nba players and guys in general.. Pippen malone has heaps of kids with groupies. Magic slept with p*rn stars.. but we ignore cause they are great players
    - abortions happen all the time...

    hmm what about what kobe did ?

    nah his a great player so we ignore bad stuff

    Do you realise nba players/ pro athletes do 100 times worse things not reported ?

    As much as we hate the dude and would love to see him fail at the highest level possible, we gotta give Broyce some credit. I mean he successfully tricked and scammed a professional basketball team in the best (basketball) league on Earth. Gotta give him that much.

    I do wonder how much his "doctors" are getting paid. I mean, they have to be in on it too.

    Royce? Is this you? Why are you defending the man and coming up with excuses for him? Other people do it so it's ok for him to do it while being in his state of mind? Just like aroundtheworld said, he/you are blaming other people for your actions and not taking the blame upon yourself. Right buddy.

    How do you scam being drafted 16 into the NBA ?



    This is on NBA Draftnet
    Strengths: Super-intriguing prospect with lottery-level tools and talent ... Thick, powerful and intimidating frame ... Aggressive athlete that likes to attack the rim ... Possesses great speed for someone his size ... Runs the court extremely well, especially with the ball in his hands ... Doesn't have a problem with pulling down a defensive rebound and then leading the fast-break himself ... Remarkable ball-handler ... Doesn't have the loose dribble that a lot of other taller players have ... Sharp crossover that becomes deadly when he picks up some speed ... Passing ability rivals a lot of point guard prospects ... Good awareness of where his teammates are on the court and skilled at delivering the ball to them in a position to score ... Strong area rebounder ... Boxes out well ... Respectable mid-range shooter ... Has the strength and quickness to be an excellent scorer in the post ... Should be an incredibly difficult player to matchup against ... Won't be a great shot-blocker, but has all the tools to defend power forwards well in the NBA ... Led his team in points, rebounds, assists, steals and blocks during his freshman season

    He also played in every single game for Iowa State his freshman season which included games in which he had to fly which included a trip to Europe. Why does he have such anxiety and travel issues now that he apparently was able to overcome last year?

    You are probably right. These days sacrificing moral and ethical codes for the pure joy of fanaticism to an individual "star" is the norm. Since there will never be enough stars to go around, and since they now have the ability to pick and choose where they'll play and who they'll play with, I sense no future for about 1/3 of the teams.

    I know at least three people that are diagnosed bi-polar. They take their meds and you don't even know they are bi-polar as they function normally in work, home, school and social environments.

    This is garbage. Just because it happens doesn't mean we should accept it and be ok with it, no matter whom they are.

    Sometimes, I wonder what the world is coming to.

    No no. There are known athletes out there that have anxiety disorders and what not. They deal with it differently and actually go to work and handle their situation and actually make a name for themselves.( I.E. Ricky Williams, Brandon Marshall, Zack Greinke) to name a few. Ricky Williams actually took time off to deal with his situation and better himself. I think Royce needs to do the same. Lets look at it like how you're looking at it. Hey since Ricky, Brandon, and Zack can do it, why not Royce? :rolleyes:

    Ron Artest has done more for the mental health community than Royce White will do over his lifetime.

    I can forgive some silly heat of the moment nonsense from a person that otherwise seems to be a good person much more easily than premeditated scamming from a sinister fraudster.
