    I hope he goes crazy on the airplane halfway to Spain and they have to put up with him for the rest of the flight.

    I hope for an IDB. Just leave him in PHL at the last second.

    I think they can convince him to get on the plane to London, but with all intentions that it'll traumatize him and he won't want to fly back.

    He sure looks like he is pushing toward 400 lbs. That guy has no work ethic.

    He has steadily been gaining weight. Does anyone think HE believes he has a chance to play in the NBA? If he did, I think he would try to stay in shape. He said this "I don't like to look at it as a second chance or my last chance" perhaps he actually believes the Rockets screwed him over and doesn't realize his current status is so dire.


    How he looked when he was last productive on the court.

    Either way, from now on all news will be entertaining AND not involve the Rockets.

    I predict:

    White cut from Philly
    White to play for CSKA Moscow
    White cut from CSKA Moscow
    White filing lawsuit against former team(s)
    White to make comeback (nothing happens)

    McDonut is spot on.

    No way in hell Royce makes the flight home.

    He'll become like Tom Hanks in The Terminal except it'll be a very dark comedy.

    Credit Sam Hinke with the assist on this rather sweet master plan.

    Flying to Spain? I guess being broke will make you do some crazy stuff...

    From the last line of the article:

    "There are other people out there that can play and want to play. So I am just happy to be here and hopefully we can find an arraignment that works for Philly."

    Awesome.

    I always felt it really wasn't about the flying but that he never wanted to pay his dues in the D-League like the Rockets want their rookies to do. He's a bonafide primadonna that feels his talent entitles him to a rotation spot and anything else is beneath him. I think with the rebuilding 76ers he sees that chance to make the team.

    Lol really man what did he do to you...

    I hope he does well but he has a lot of work to do. If his plan was to cash a quick few mils from the nba and reinvest well good for him bc it worked.

    Yes, I believe he really believes he can just show up and dominate in the NBA. He believes he has unbelievable talent and I have heard him compare himself to Magic Johnson and LeBron James. He won't put in the work necessary to stick in the NBA.

    He is going to end up broke and penniless and my guess is in prison for backed child support and theft.
