    I never said I wanted to helop, so I know he's not talking about me.

    At this point, I'd be OK if this pick turned out to be a waste. I had already written off Morris, so his revival is an unexpected surprise. Royce can just take Morris' place as the recent mid-first-round draft bust.

    The most accurate image I can find on Royce's wagon:

    Give it another week, and the right-side button will be grayed out.

    The most accurate song I could find on Royce's situation is... just:

    As the pretentious prick that he's acting out right now, I wonder if he likes Radiohead.

    I now have very little doubts that Royce White will inevitably end up naked and jacking it in San Diego.

    Honestly I was never on it. I didn't think it was a great pick. There were a lot of Royce White fans on this board and other media after the Rockets drafted him. Some even called him the "steal of the draft". I think he's overrated as a player. Not bad. Just overrated. BUT the Rockets drafted him, signed him, and said they were committed to making it work with him. They were definitely on the bandwagon. I assume they did enough research to know how much work and money it was going to take to have him on the team and believed it was worth it. Or maybe they didn't. They made it seem like they were really concerned about his well being not just good PR or an asset. If they've changed their mind, then it's on them.

    If James Harden had this issue, the Rockets would let him see whatever doctor he needs or wants to see.

    If James Harden had this issue, nobody would even know his name.

    Yeah, because money fixes everything. The man has severe anxiety, there is no need to over-analyze every word he says.

    This whole saga has been the most entertaining couple weeks as a Rockets fan (other than the playoffs, obv)

    This dude is just so full of himself.

    The Rockets are going to recover as much $$$ as they can from his guaranteed contract.

    Dude proves he did not deserve to be a first round pick. If someone should have risked anything he should have been taken in the 2nd round.

    I just hate him right now. Nothing admirable, honorable or dignified in what you're doping right now.

    Pretty entertaining stuff though, you have to admit. This guy needs his own reality show.

    He is now obviously threatening legal action against the Rockets (good luck with that) - and intentionally misspelling the therapist's name.
