    Putting the ball in White's hands would not be unprecedented.

    White and Jones can both handle it, and are both ready to contribute from Day 1.

    I like White handling the ball although he has a high turnover ration. We still need an off-guard that can handle the rock if Royce gets trapped.

    Royce White is no Magic/LeBron.
    Dude could be a better Big Baby / Bass.

    Nice in college Bass averaged no more than 0.8 assists game while Big Baby averaged 2 in his third year of college.

    NICE!

    ^^ Oh you mean Donovan Montehejoos or something? That's right, I forgot he's coming over this season too. Projected as a PF by the way

    Rockets coach, Tom Nissalke is credited with creating the point forward strategy with Rick Barry's role in Houston.

    Marques Johnson
    Paul Pressey
    Larry Bird

    Royce needs a jumper then he will be a superstar. That's the only thing keeping him from taking it to the next level in his development.

    He rebounds the ball very well;That allows him to run the break and use his exceptional court vision. I think that's why people liken him to lebron. Once he starts with a full head of steam he's like a bulldozer.
