    Royce White reminds me of donte greene, and he should have been moved on draft night.

    White will be on the team this year unless he is traded.

    Yep. Although Livingston can't be packaged until August like Leuer, he can be sent out in a separate deal for Duhon, or used later.

    Yeah, they're exactly the same.

    Except, of course, that Royce is 3 inches shorter, 50 lbs heavier, and plays the game completely different than Greene.

    Also, I thought you were obsessed with summer league scoring? Donte Greene sounds like he should be your favorite player.

    A front court of D-MO and Lueuer could have caused matchup problems in the offesive post

    I am not saying he will be good or bad, I just don't think the Rockets will cut him.

    For Royce White, his best bet is to fake an injury to get signed to the injuried reserve core

    I'm not trashing royce, his play is trashing him. He's all talk.

    He doing interviews like he's made the team but he aint did nothing in Vegas.

    Couple of defensive rebounds here or there which I'll give him credit for, but he's mostly transition or trash buckets.

    Didn't even need to be a team with cap space. The Rockets could have traded Leuer to an over-the-cap team using the Veteran Minimum Exception.

    Seems like Leuer would fit great on the Heat as a stretch-4 or a serviceable 5 playing small ball. Why Miami wouldn't give up a second rounder for him is beyond me.

    That makes it even more ridiculous.

    Does Miami have a 2nd rounder it can even trade?

    Still, some team should have been willing.

    Cut Royce White, at 6'8'' 260 if you aint scoring he's dead weight so it's time to cut bait.

    he and carl landry was the same height while carl landry was undersized at pf, carl landry found ways to score.

    The talent is there ...if you knew anything about the kid is first he is a facilitator and not a volume scorer like lamb. He has done well enough to make this team for sure ....I mean who the hell do you think we are okc,l.a. or something!! We are not a team full of off the chart talent at the moment ...


    And I guess its easy to even get to that point to be able to even sniff a triple double cause you have done it so many times I'm sure ....stop hating
