    First game is the 23rd. I expect he'll be sent down around the 21st.

    So what exactly is going on? :confused::confused:

    I've read three things in this thread.

    1) He had a migraine.
    2) Random Tweet.
    3) He said wow after seeing the media surround Jeremy and James.

    So other than this, where is the article that talks about Royce being nervous about being at the game or something? I'm just really confused at a bunch of talk that seems to be guesses as to what is going on with Royce.

    You are right about a lot of people guessing on what is going on with Royce. There is a lot of frustration about the rookies not getting any playing time. people blame McHale for Jones not playing. White has taken heat for his not playing.

    white picked the prefect time to make a seen. The D-League will start soon, and it's not like the guy was gonna play anyway.

    Good post minus the sarcasm, minus the outrage, and minus the anger.

    LOL, the ability to send coaches to the Dleague should be implemented as Stern's last move before he retires.

    I really want to see Terrance Jones play...He's athletic and was doing really well in the preseason. A little shocked that this team consists of young players and new faces and the one guy who showed the most potential in the preseason games has yet to get a minute of playing time. :(

    Serious. McHale should spend about 10 years there learning how to coach. Oh, and to run a offense. But I bet he'll find a player he likes and just run ISO hero ball with everyone getting out of the way every play in the D-league as well.

    I am not sure why there is so much negativity about a kid who is successfully battling a flying phobia. Is it because he is articulate? Or is it because he is a loyal team mate? Or is it because his upside is so high??

    White is a Rocket. And a rookie. If you can't give the kid a break, then give him some time for God's sake. He has yet to play a minute and he is being blamed for everything but Armaggedon.

    I didn't blame Royce for anything. I just said that Royce picked a really good time to goof off, because he was not going to play regardless of what he did.

    It comes off as harmless, but I really hope Royce doesn't take to Twitter to make snarky comments that do nothing but hurt his chances. Remember T-Will? Dude talked himself out of a spot on this team.

    Royce needs to shut up and earn his spot.

    Totally agree. I can't tell if that's snarky or not but it could be construed that way. Morris might have had similar pouty issues last year. Shut up, Royce, practice hard, and play well in the D league. You'll get your shot.
