    I love that we got rid of the bust with a bus. Morey doesn't make mistakes often, but when he does, he fixes them really quickly

    As a cyclone fan, Royce's talent is (well, was) real.

    Don't know why the Sixers took a chance on him but hey I'm not complaining. If they are able to get him on the floor, he may be their best player.

    Because the Sixers suck.

    Hinkie knows how good Aldemir is. Watch out - this will be a trade considered a steal for the 76ers in a couple years or so. Ala Luis Scola for VSpan.

    Bye Royce, it didn't have to be this way. He could have been the voice for anxiety sufferers everywhere. I honestly hope he's successful, live you dream dude. Stop fighting everyone and enjoy the fact the you are living a dream that ppl would die for

    Yeah only difference is Luis never complained and always played his heart out.

    White on the other hand refuses to even play (yet the man still wants his $)

    IMHO there wasnt a lesson to be learned here. White was a low risk high reward move, and while he didnt pan out getting a guy with potential at pick 23rd is a move you every time.

    Have to admit that I'm disappointed we had to tether him to Furkan to get rid of him. I like big guys who rebound and play defense.

    Oh well, looks like we'll be getting another 2nd rounder as compensation.

    Thank God the Royce White era is over!

    Future draft considerations. Most likely their next available 2nd rounder top 55 protected.

    I think that #BeWell was a troll on Royce.

    I like it.
