    Did I say he can play the 3? I said he has similar skill set to Lamar Odom.

    Is being a lightning rod for criticism due to his incessant tweeting part of his "healthy" lifestyle? This guy is a total flake. It seems like we need to have at least one on the roster every season (Wafer -> McGrady -> Terrence Williams -> and now this guy).

    At least Mcgrady contributed at one time, or at some point was worth the trouble.

    Its hard to show any empathy for this guy from all these immature acts and BS excuses he makes. Imo only veterans suffering from PTSD should be taken care of after all the work they have done fighting for this country. Royce needs to stop acting like a spoiled 15 year old who wants everything his way, and just go to work.

    McGrady was the first offensive option for 4 seasons.....
    Wafer was a spark off the pine for one season?
    Royce is a sheet of white paper

    I wonder if you realize that you are basically saying that a crazy person is harming the cause of crazy people by being crazy.

    It's not by being crazy but by being unbelievably immature. This guy seems to be living in a bubble and is not realizing what effect his words and actions will have on him and those around him in the future. Hard to believe he has a lot of siblings, he is acting like a spoiled single child.

    This team has some real issues to deal with. Royce White is just gossip at this point. Unwanted distractions is all it is.

    Does anyone else remember the good old days when players made statements with their play?

    He is not showing that willingness. And not following protocol.

    Seriously - who the hell does he think he is? He sets "PROTOCOL" as a rookie?

    He is the one that needs "2 become EDUCATED".

    Rockets set up appointments for Royce w/ Rockets doc.(Not to be confused with DocRocket. :p)

    Royce doesn't show up.

    Rockets need to become educated.

    Royce wants playing time.

    Royce doesn't show up to games or practice.

    Rockets need to become educated.

    How about a willingness by Royce?

    Nothing but a bunch of intellectual gibberish. Good grief. Enough already.
