    Look at his minutes/gm...you can't put up good numbers unless you get time on the floor...

    This kid was highly touted when he was drafted...I think he could end up being the next Bobby Simmons...

    unless your name is Jermaine O'neal and you played for Portland, there's a reason you don't get minutes.

    White certainly has great talent and can blossom in this system, but his attitude and personality has taken huge hits. He's still got a pending case involving him shooting freely with his friends at DC. I don't know if Van GUndy will put up with his laziness and lackluster spirit if he were to get benched.

    I thought White had a reputation as not wanting to put in the effort to become a decent NBA player and being dumb as a brick.

    Aside from T-Mc, who should be playing guard, what better SF do we have? We should take a chance with a decent but smallish offer. At 25 years old with three years of experience, he's certainly better to have on the bench that Charlie Ward.

    From what I've seen he is a tremendous offensive player. But he doesn't play D and is a major head case. Maybe JVG is capable of turning this kid around. At least he hasn't choked his coach yet. Well as far as we know.

    He'd be a solid addition to the Rox roster. The guy can ball.

    Actually a motivated White would exactly be a JVG type.
