Rockets Send Three Players To D-League

[Pugz]

The Houston Rockets will send Royce White, Donatas Motiejunas and Scott Machado to the Rio Grande Valley Vipers of the D-League.

All three players are in their rookie season with the Rockets.

good thing they travel by bus, royce should make his games.

Poor Royce. I wonder it was known that he was afraid of traveling by plane when he got drafted though... likely not.

 

[Pugz]

yes it was. his anxiety issues have been known for a while.

Ah, I wouldn't know lol. Hopefully it's something he can get over then because it's definitely something that could damage his career with all the travelling NBA players do to get around the States.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

His anxiety probably caused him not to go a little higher.

He's the steal of the draft if he meets his potential, so here's to hoping Royce can get his head in the right place. I think he should do well in the D League.

A lot of players could be the steal of the draft if they meet their potential.

How many of those players are built like a 4, can handle like a guard, play the 3 or post up as a 4, and can pass like a point guard?

 

[Pugz]

royce white is a good prospect but hes not as good as you make him out to be.

[Big Bid'Ness]

Damn i forgot about Scott Machado.

 

[BwareDWare94]

Perry Jones, Terrence Jones, Derrick Williams, Michael Beasley

I've yet to see all of those skills displayed by those four players.

ive yet to see it from Royce too

add jeff green too. and you must be blind.

If they really could do all of those things, they'd be better players. None of them have Royce's basketball IQ, either. How smart he is on the court is well documented.

Also, Minnesota should start Dante Cunningham and let DWill play against second units. He wouldn't struggle so damn much against lesser players. He's just too small to be a starting 4. Cunningham has a motor that never quits and doesn't let his lack of size affect his rebounding ability. Very underrated player.

 

[Pugz]

royce could be a better talent than lebron...doesnt mean he's ever going to be that good because he's never going to see the court.

 

[Mexi]

this royce stuff is so weird

just get him some mega shrinks
it's the nba, man

dont want to sound insensitive though. i understand this is serious

 

[Pugz]

youre right tho. youre living the dream, gotta get over it.
