    Has RGV been sitting Royce for a particular reason, or just him not producing?

    Not watching the game, but looks like a great stat line:

    6-13, +17, 7 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 steals, 1 block, 15 points.

    Did Royce take it personal that we think he will never play a game for the Rockets? ;)

    To be fair, about 7 of those points came at the end via free throws - but even without those, he played an excellent, efficient game.

    Tough love, keep him in the valley all next year too, have to break his entitlement - that is the only way to get to him.

    Awesome. Hope he drives up his value for us to get a 2nd round pick for him.

    **** NO !

    That guy has not earned the right to wear the Rockets colors with his bull**** antics.

    I hope the Rox void his contract.

    Watching the game now. Crazy first half for the Vipers. They were down by at least 17 in the first quarter. White on the break looks like combining an elephant with a gazelle at times. Nobody wants to get in front of that locomotive. There was an end-to-end play around the 2:00-2:20 mark or so of the first quarter (I think) where I didn't know if I was watching basketball or football because it looked like he carried the defender in for a dunk.

    The Vipers already have around 3 techs in the game. Around the 5:20 or so mark of the 2nd quarter, Goudelock gets ejected after he scores a bucket. I'm guessing he got pissed at a no-call because he launched the basketball into the stands after the bucket. Dennis Scott, the pbp guy has no idea what happened, so he's wondering what the heck is going on, but it's pretty plain to see he was ejected for the ball flung into the stands.
