Fair enough. Gues I simply never read the stories where he's abusive towards others. Given his media popularity they should be all over the place if they existed.

I also think if a GM/coach was truly supportive of his medical condition they'd fend off criticism in the media and have his back. From day 1 none had his back in Houston. I think that's a big part why this became such a mess.

They have his back, eventually trust will develop. If it doesn't you know you did everything possible to make the situation work and don't have any remorse and move on.

We haven't the required info to know to what extent Houston supported him. Word I've heard is they tried very hard and went over and above. Obviously can't vouch for that.

Royce from early high school stated that wind sprints gave him anxiety attacks. He blamed swinging at a coach on being due to an anxiety attack. He was initially fine on planes.. but then he had gf troubles one day and suddenly developed fear of flying. He missed the plane, the vame... and then spent that game day stalking his gf.

The list is a mile long.

Stalking is bad. Just ask KKK.

yup what PKM said. theres plenty of evidence that Royce White is just a baby hiding behind an 'Anxiety Disorder'

reminds me of this kid on my HS wrestling team whod fake asthma attacks on the mat whenever he was losing.

Plus Royce is just genuinely a terrible person, read about his 5 baby mamas

since the topic is delusional basketball players... did anyone else see that noted meglomaniac Scotty Hopson, signed a 2 year / 2.8mil contract with the Cavs (second year @1.5mil is team option)

Hopson was shooting 49% from 3 in turkey
 
Only a matter of time before Hopson blows up.

Proud of Hopson doe. Worked on his game in Europe getting paid proper money (not some D-League scrub) and got rewarded with a contract.

Ehhh, don't buy it. The guy has some kind of genuine mental problem. What sane person would purposely throw away a multi-million dollar NBA career? If he was a truly horrible person, he would do just enough to scrape by with the Rockets to get his checks.

Cyrone ain't gonna be happy about that.

its a weird contract, they are going to pay him 1.35 mil for the last 7 games this season...

apparently the Cavs are gearing up for a big trade this offseason and view him as bait, they have a bunch of draftpicks, tradeable expiring contracts,partially guaranteed contracts and non guaranteed contracts

It's weird…his Euroleague stats were dramatically better than his stats in Turkey. 11 games is just too small of a sample size IMO.

I remember pimping Hopson last summer league as a guy to watch! Was disappointing though.
Just looking up his stats I see he's had a disappointing 13 games in Turkey and outstanding 11 Euroleague games so far. Weird.

No one said he doesn't have an illness. I said he milks it for all it's worth.. which is not much anymore.

Jazz end up with the #5 pick.

Wiggins, Parker, Embiid, and Randle are all gone.

This is essentially worse case scenario, but who do we take?

Exum? Gordon? Smart?

I take gordon
 
Hantlers said:
That's easily one of the worst defensive teams in the NBA, even if Corbin isn't our coach.

Favors, and possibly Hayward are the only plus defenders in that entire lineup.

I think gordon will be a good defender

All he needs to do is to attack to rim and create for others especially in transition.

Basically what this tells me is that Embiid, Smart, Gordon and WCS are all really good at defense. Randle and Parker are below-average, and McDermott is horrible.

Just curious how wiggins defensive rating compares to these guys
